Fernanda Torres Reacts to Making History With Her Mom
Oscar Nominations 2025: Ariana Grande, Selena Gomez, Angelina Jolie and More Snubs and Surprises
This golden apple didn’t fall too far from the tree at the 2025 Oscars.
After all, Fernanda Torres—who is nominated in the Best Actress category for I’m Still Here—couldn’t help but gush over becoming the second mother-daughter duo to be nominated at the ceremony with her mom Fernanda Montenegro since Judy Garland and Liza Minnelli earned the title in 1969.
“It’s unbelievable to have nominated DNA,” Torres exclusively told Live From E!: The Oscars’ Zuri Hall March 2. “It’s incredible.” (See all the stars on the red carpet here.)
While Montenegro made history as the first Latin American actress to be nominated at the award show in 1999 for Central Station, her daughter could make history as the first Brazilian woman to win the Best Actress category. (Torres is currently up against The Subtance’s Demi Moore, Anora’s Mikey Madison, Wicked’s Cynthia Erivo and Emilia Pérez’s Karla Sofía Gascón.)
