Selena Gomez has won the Best Actress award at the Cannes Film Festival for her role in Jacques Audiard's 'Emilia Perez.' Gomez shares the award with Zoe Saldaña, Karla Sofia Gascón, and Adriana Paz. Jury president Greta Gerwig stated that separating their performances would undermine the magic of their collective work, highlighting each actress as a standout. Gomez commented on her audition process, saying, "I Just Surrendered and Completely Gave Myself." This marks the first time in 14 years that a singer has won the Best Actress award at Cannes, with the last being Charlotte Lucy Gainsbourg.
