Being nominated for an Academy Award is one of the highest honors — if not the highest honor — one can get in Hollywood, regardless of age, gender, race, religion, or cultural background.
English actress Naomie Harris started 2017 on a high note as she received her first-ever Oscar nomination. In February 2017, the actress attended the Oscar nominee luncheon at The Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills.

Naomie was nominated for her work as a crack addict in the film Moonlight. Ironically, the actress almost turned the opportunity down because she vowed to stay away from roles that depicted black women in a negative light. The actress also said she only spent three days shooting her scenes.
At the luncheon, the actress shared that she was most excited to meet Justin Timberlake. We’re not exactly judging her.
