JAKARTA - The Netflix series, Emily in Paris received two nominations at the 2021 Golden Globe award. This announcement became a controversy among fans because they thought that many series deserved the nomination.
A new fact was also revealed recently. Launching The Independent, Tuesday, February 23, the creators of Emily in Paris flew several journalists registered with members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA).
HFPA is a group of international journalists who have the voting rights to vote for television and film nominations for the Golden Globe awards.
This fact was revealed by HFPA where 30 HFPA members flew to France to stay at a five-star Peninsula Paris hotel for two nights in 2019.
In addition, they also get a press conference and lunch facilities at the Musée des Arts Forains, a private museum with facilities for playing games in 1850.
This treatment is part of an investigation with the suspicion that HFPA members are complacent about the special treatment given by the Emily in Paris team. "They treat us like kings and queens," said one HFPA member.
Emily in Paris is an original series released by Netflix in 2020. The series tells the story of a woman named Emily (played by Lily Collins) who gets an assignment to move to France and help with marketing strategies with American culture.
Despite being widely watched, negative criticism graced this series. The nominations were also a surprise, including for the series writer, Deborah Copaken.
