"West Side Story" star Rachel Zegler says she wasn't invited to the Oscars

"West Side Story" actress Rachel Zegler revealed this weekend that she was not invited to the 94th Academy Awards, even though she played the lead role in the Oscar-nominated adaptation of the hit musical. The film, directed by Steven Spielberg, has been nominated for seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Costume Design, though Zegler was not nominated for her role. 

Zegler announced the news in her Instagram comments Sunday, replying to a fan's question about what she would wear on Oscar night. "I'm not invited, so sweatpants and my boyfriend's flannel," she wrote.

After several fans questioned the news, Zegler added another comment.
