Madonna has ‘fingers crossed’ for W.E. at Oscars

Washington: Madonna is hoping that her movie W.E. gets selected for Oscars and has her “fingers crossed” ahead of the nominations announcement on Tuesday.

The Material Girl had bagged a Golden Globe earlier this month for the film’s theme track Masterpiece, which won the prize for Best Original Song. The 53-year-old, who directed the movie, is hoping her luck will carry on to the Academy Awards, insisting she would be forever “grateful” if her passion project was recognised by Oscar voters. “Well, the Oscars, the nominations are coming out... and fingers crossed, I hope my movie gets nominated for something,” Contactmusic quoted her as saying. “I would be really grateful if it did, but if it doesn’t, I got the Super Bowl - keep on going,” she added. The pop superstar is to perform at the Super Bowl half-time show in Indiana next month. ANI
