In an interview with E!, the Halloween star expressed her feelings about Maggie's nomination for the Oscars, saying,

"Proud and impressed pride is something when you know somebody as a child. Then, when they do something, you're like, "That's so good'!"

However, it was Maggie Gyllenhaal's outfit that stole all the attention for being called a fashion fail by the fans, but it certainly had people talking.
