Best Supporting Actress nominee Danielle Brooks celebrates her Oscar nomination in New Zealand while the rest of her class was gathered together in Beverly Hills.
LOS ANGELES -- The annual Oscar Nominee Luncheon in Beverly Hills is an awards season tradition, but if you look closely at this year's class photo, there is a first time nominee who is missing -- Danielle Brooks.
The 34-year-old star of "The Color Purple," who is nominated for Best Supporting Actress, has been out of the country working on a new movie.

"I call this my champagne problem," she told On the Red Carpet's George Pennacchio over Zoom, "I'm here in New Zealand shooting the movie 'Minecraft.'"
Filming on a movie across the Pacific Ocean hasn't stopped Brooks from continuing to soak in her nomination.
"'The Color Purple' is the first Broadway show I saw. It changed my life," Brooks said. "I starred in it ten years later and that changed my life on Broadway, and now to have gotten an Oscar nomination, I have so much to be grateful for."
