Carlow actress Saoirse Ronan has been nominated for the category Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture, Musical of Comedy, for her role in Lady Bird.

Saoirse’s nomination was announced with a little difficulty by actress Alfre Woodward when she called her ‘Sheer-sa’ before correcting herself.

She did try and tell them, in fairness.

Meanwhile Kilkenny’s Cartoon Saloon’s The Breadwinner has also been nominated for Best Motion Picture (Animated).

And Martin McDonagh is up for Best Director in a Motion Picture with Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.

Yay!
