Now see why couldn't she wear something like that white dress? That and her hair , she looks fabulous!
Serious question... why is it a "snub" ?
IMO... there can be only five nominations and, obviously, the Academy thought the five others were better.
If the word "snub" is used in conjunction with an actress not receiving a nomination... does that mean that every other actress in a leading role was snubbed, as well?

All the headlines say "Selma snubbed from Oscars" even though it's nominated for Best Picture and Best Original Song. I agree it's used when there's hubbub about it and/or people were expecting/hoping for a nomination/more nominations and it was nominated for other awards.
I think the Semla thing is a little different. I feel like that's the typical media "race baiting" especially because twitter was on fire the other day at the whiteness and maleness of the nominations.
Oh I definitely agree it's media baiting, but I think that's the general use definition of the term as it relates to the Oscars and the media. "Jennifer Aniston snubbed from Oscars" is a lot better headline than just "Jennifer Aniston not nominated for Oscar." With Selma it's a bit more incendiary and manipulative, but still the same general idea in both cases.
She's looking great lately... She looks younger than 45 to me! I agree the whole Jen vs Angelina thing is really old, I don't understand why people keep bringing it up. If there was ever any feud (didn't really follow these people back then), all seemed to have moved on and appear to be in a good place.
Yep. It's when there's an expectation of an Oscar nom. When people assume it's a lock, then said film, actor etc isn't nommed.
It's a common term. I wouldn't put too much stock in it.
