Teyana Taylor was nominated for her first Oscar this year, earning recognition for Best Supporting Actress for her role as Perfidia in the Paul Thomas Anderson\u2019s One Battle After Another<\/em>. The singer-turned-actress received critical acclaim for the role, also earning BAFTA, Critics\u2019 Choice, and SAG Award nominations, even winning a Golden Globe earlier this year.<\/p>\n

The Best Supporting Actress award went to Amy Madigan on Sunday night, who also beat out Wunmi Mosaku, Elle Fanning, and Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas. But when the Weapons <\/em>actress was announced as the winner, some viewers couldn\u2019t take their eyes off of Taylor, who immediately stood up to happily cheer on her competitor. <\/p>\n

Fans across social media reposted the video of Teyana happily hopping up to clap for Madigan, adding commentary about what they deemed to be \u201cdoing too much.\u201d They said the same about the clip of her going up to accept the Best Picture award, which shows her tightly wrapping her arms around Paul Thomas Anderson while flashing a huge smile. <\/p>\n

\u201cTeyana Taylor is so annoying,\u201d one fan wrote, racking up 18,000 likes.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Escape Room<\/em> artist saw a tweet complaining about her enthusiasm and chose to respond, calling the people criticizing her joy \u201cmiserable\u201d and educating others on how to \u201cwin with grace.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe world holds so much misery that miserable hearts forget the face of happiness,\u201d she began. \u201cThey grow comfortable being sore losers, so when they see real sportsmanship it unsettles them! like holy water touching a demon. Because clapping for someone else\u2019s victory requires something many people never learned\u2026how to win with grace & pure joy, and how to lose with grace, chin up & dignity.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In related news, the Academy has responded to the artist being shoved by security<\/a> at the Oscars.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe were extremely upset to learn about the experience endured by Teyana Taylor at the end of the Oscars ceremony last night,\u201d they began in a statement, per Variety<\/a><\/em>. \u201cWe have worked with Teyana over the last several months during awards season, and she has been nothing short of remarkable, supportive, kind, and all about community. Though the incident was with our outside security firm SIS, the experience of every single guest is our responsibility. We have made it clear to them that this behavior is not acceptable.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

They continued, \u201cWe want to thank Teyana for showing remarkable grace, and we are taking the appropriate measures to ensure this does not happen again.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
