Fox News host Kayleigh McEnany is pushing for Melania Trump to win an Academy Award for the documentary \u201cMelania.\u201d<\/p>\n
The movie featuring Melania Trump as herself surprised critics by making back roughly $7 million of the reported $75 million Amazon MGM Studios paid to launch the globally over the weekend, according to the studio.<\/p>\n
Melania is listed as a producer on the documentary that focuses on the days leading up to her becoming the nation\u2019s first lady for the second time.<\/p>\n
\u201cMelania\u201d would seem to be a long shot to win an Oscar for best documentary considering the savage reviews<\/a> it received from numerous critics. Variety dismissed it<\/a> as a \u201ccheeseball Infomercial of staggering inertia.\u201d<\/p>\n According to McEnany \u2014 who served as President Donald Trump\u2019s White House press secretary in 2020 and 2021 \u2014 her mother saw the film in a theater where the \u201cstanding room only\u201d crowd was riveted from start to finish.<\/p>\n In addition to pushing for the first lady to win an Academy Award, McEnany claimed Melania Trump would outshine everyone in attendance at Hollywood\u2019s most glamorous event.<\/p>\n \u201cIf she was to go, she would be the best dressed and the classiest dressed by a long shot,\u201d McEnany reckoned.<\/p>\n The 2026 Oscar nominees<\/a> have already been selected. Winners will be announced March 15. Should \u201cMelania\u201d receive any nominations, the first lady, director Brett Ratner<\/a> and the rest of their crew will have to wait until 2027 to walk the red carpet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Fox News host Kayleigh McEnany is pushing for Melania Trump to win an Academy Award for the documentary…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":279025,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[128647,321,969,93,20665,61,60,135162,22680,83844],"class_list":{"0":"post-279024","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-academy-award","9":"tag-celebrities","10":"tag-donald-trump","11":"tag-entertainment","12":"tag-fox-news","13":"tag-ie","14":"tag-ireland","15":"tag-kayleigh-mcenany","16":"tag-melania-trump","17":"tag-mgm-studios"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/279024","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=279024"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/279024\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/279025"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=279024"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=279024"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=279024"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
