Amy Adams may have lost out on the ‘Best Actress’ Oscar to fellow nominee Cate Blanchett but it seems the actress didn’t let this ruin her Sunday night at the Academy Awards.
The 39-year-old American Hustle star danced with Pharrell Williams as he performed his hit ‘Happy’ from the film Despicable Me 2. Adams told British Vogue “I danced with Pharrell – I love him. I did eight counts, I took it very seriously. I was sent a video afterwards and it was pretty good. I’d love to get a full dance in at some point, and I’ve always wanted to be in a music video…”.
Adams received some competition in the form of ‘Best Supporting Actress’ winner Lupita Nyong’o and ‘Best Actress’ nominee Meryl Streep who also boogied with Pharrell.
Adams was nominated for her role in American Hustle – a glittering Seventies comedy were she plays the long-term mistress of a conman. “I really didn’t expect [that kind of attention],” she said. “But those dresses were used as a manipulation tool for my character – they were supposed to distract the men around her, and that’s exactly what happened for audiences. They were distracted, so it worked. Job done.”
When asked about her appearances on the red carpet Adams said: “I’ve relaxed a bit more overtime”. The star also spoke of her enjoyment of working with designers and names some of her favourites for the red carpet being Antonio Berardi, Roland Mouret and Victoria Beckham.
“There are certain designers who I refer to as zip ons, designers who I have zipped on many times,” she said. “I like to feel supported and all those designers I just mentioned have some internal structure that accentuates, rather than squishes. I want something that makes me feel womanly.”
Could this ever so subtle hint be the spark of a music video collaboration. If Amy Adams outfits from her film American Hustle are anything to go by she wouldn’t look very out of place in a music video.
Its seems Pharrell its up to but if you want our opinion we say yes, yes, definitely yes. Maybe Meryl Streep and Lupita Nyong’o could get in on the video too? A star studded video to compliment the star studded selfie taken at the awards.
