Michelle Yeoh is second Asian woman ever to get best actress nod, Naatu Naatu first Indian film song to be nominated.

Several categories announced during the televised ceremony in Los Angeles, California on Tuesday made history.  For the first time, two sequels — Top Gun: Maverick and, Avatar: The Way of Water — were nominated for best picture. Malaysia-born Michelle Yeoh, who starred in the genre-bending, Everything Everywhere all at Once, became the second Asian woman to be nominated for best actress since the awards were first held in 1929.

Still, some criticised the lack of Black women in the best actress category, with neither Viola Davis nor Danielle Deadwyler recognised, despite being seen as leading contendersin advance of the nominations for their roles in, The Woman King, and, Till, respectively.

The snub comes amid a years-long push to make the awards more inclusive.

No Black women at all for Best Actress

-No Viola
-No Danielle Deadwyler

No Best Directing nod for Ryan Coogler or Gina Prince-Bythewood either😒 #Oscars2023
