Mikey Madison hosted Saturday Night Live, playfully addressing critiques regarding her pole-dancing performance in the Oscar-winning film 'Anora.' During her opening monologue, she emphasized that she performed all her own stunts, affirming her authenticity. Madison's role as a stripper marrying a wealthy oligarch highlighted themes of empowerment, which she echoed in her Oscar acceptance speech. She expressed gratitude towards her fellow nominees and dedicated her win to the sex worker community. Following her Oscar success, she humorously noted her plans for relaxation, highlighting her laid-back personality amid the hectic awards season.
I performed all my own stunts for the film, including all the dancing, so it does kind of bother me when people assume it wasn't actually me on the pole, because it was.
Yes, I will continue to support and be an ally. All of the incredible people, the women that I've had the privilege of meeting from that community has been one of the highlights of this incredible experience.
As you can tell, I have a pretty relaxed vibe in real life, and I try to incorporate that into all my roles.
