The BAFTAs Might Have Been A COVID-19 Super-Spreader Event
Rebel Wilson hosted the 2022 British Academy Film Awards ceremony, aka the BAFTAs, last Sunday, and in hindsight, maybe she should have done the whole gig in an extra snug-fitting N95 mask. Because according to sources, many people tested positive for COVID in the days after the BAFTAs were held. Someone might not have gone home with an award, but there’s a very good chance they went home with a runny nose, fever, cough, or persistent body aches. And the only reason we really know any of this at all is that the Producers Guild of America Awards were held six days later, and the attendance was suspiciously low.
Behold, The Winners Of The BAFTAs And The Critics Choice Awards
Last night, the BAFTAs and the Critics Choice Awards both took place. The BAFTAs happened in London and the Critics Choice Awards happened in Los Angeles. And both of them shut out Lady Gaga and Kristen Stewart. Much like with the Screen Actors’ Guild Awards, Jessica Chastain swooped in from behind and took home a Best Actress win for Eyes of Tammy Faye. But unlike with the SAGs, Power of the Dog is back on top after last night and Jane Campion took home tons of awards for that gayish cowboy movie that Sam Elliott hates so much and triggered their feud.
