Blonde star Ana de Armas recently appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where she revealed her initial reaction after finding out that she got nominated for a Golden Globe for her performance in the Marilyn Monroe biopic.
She added:
''My assistant comes with a phone, like, very straight-faced and just gives me something to read and it was this text chain. And I start reading, and then I realized what I'm reading and I scream.''
She continued:
''But of course, it was a stunt scene, so everyone got very worried thinking that something was happening. I was like, ''no, no, no, no, it's okay.'' So yeah, it was pretty cool.''

It's kind of like a take on that through her lens and what her life was like, so..''
