Portrayals of real-life musicians dominated at the 2019 Golden Globes as \u201cBohemian Rhapsody\u201d and \u201cGreen Book\u201d won top honours, while the films’ stars also picked up awards for their acclaimed performances.<\/p>\n

\u201cBohemian Rhapsody,\u201d about the late Queen frontman Freddie Mercury, bested another movie surrounded by music, the favourite \u201cA Star is Born,\u201d to win best picture, drama and best actor in a drama for Rami Malek.<\/p>\n

\u201cGreen Book,\u201d which follows a tour between pianist Don Shirley and Tony Vallelonga, won best picture (musical or comedy) and best supporting actor for Mahershala Ali.<\/p>\n

Though music is at the centre of both \u201cBohemian Rhapsody\u201d and \u201cA Star Is Born,\u201d the films competed in the drama categories instead of musical\/comedy, submitted that way by its studios.<\/p>\n

\u201cA Star Is Born\u201d walked into Sunday’s Globes as a favourite with five nominations, but only ended up winning one award: best original song for \u201cShallow,\u201d co-written by Lady Gaga.<\/p>\n

She and Cooper lost in their respective acting categories. Cooper also lost in the directing and producing categories.<\/p>\n

Gaga shared the win with Mark Ronson, Anthony Rossomando and Andrew Wyatt.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a woman in music it is really hard to be taken seriously as a musician and as a songwriter,\u201d Gaga said onstage, adding that her co-writers \u201clifted me up, they supported me.\u201d<\/p>\n

The award was presented by Taylor Swift and Idris Elba at the Beverly Hilton.<\/p>\n

It was Gaga’s second Globe win: In 2016, she won best actress in a miniseries or motion picture made for television for her role in FX’s \u201cAmerican Horror Story: Hotel.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShallow,\u201d performed by Gaga and Bradley Cooper, has earned four Grammy nominations, including song and record of the year. The track also reached platinum status and became a Top 5 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.<\/p>\n

The song, shortlisted for best original song at the 2019 Academy Awards, beat out some heavy-hitters at the Globes, including Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s \u201cAll the Stars\u201d from \u201cBlack Panther\u201d; Dolly Parton and Linda Perry’s \u201cGirl in the Movies\u201d from \u201cDumplin\u201d’; Annie Lennox’s \u201cRequiem for a Private War\u201d from \u201cA Private War;\u201d and Troye Sivan and Jonsi’s \u201cRevelation\u201d from \u201cBoy Erased.\u201d<\/p>\n

Justin Hurwitz picked up his third Golden Globe when he won best original score for \u201cFirst Man\u201d on Sunday. Hurwitz, an Oscar- and Grammy-winner, beat out Alexandre Desplat (\u201cIsle of Dogs\u201d), Marc Shaiman (\u201cMary Poppins Returns\u201d), Ludwig Goransson (\u201cBlack Panther\u201d) and Marco Beltrami (\u201cA Quiet Place\u201d).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
