Car Chase Effect: Meghan Markle Removed from Gracie Awards Winner List

In a surprising turn of events, Meghan Markle's name has been removed from the winner list of the prestigious Gracie Awards.

Just three hours ago, I checked the official website and discovered that her name had completely vanished, replaced by Thomas.

The Duchess of Sussex was initially honored as one of the Digital Media National winners for her Archetypes podcast on Spotify.

This podcast features Meghan engaging in conversations with renowned women, discussing the stereotypes they face.

The removal of Meghan's name from the winner list is not a mere mistake; it appears to be a consequence of the recent revelation regarding a staged car chase involving the couple.

It seems that the tides have turned against them, leading to this unexpected development.

Fans of the royal family have taken to the comments section of the Gracie Awards' latest post, expressing their appreciation for the transparency and integrity of the judging team.

The Gracie Awards aim to recognize women who are not only talented but also honest, compassionate, and contribute significantly to society.

The 48th Annual Gracie Awards, where the national winners will be celebrated, is scheduled for May 23rd, 2023.

The event will take place at the Beverly Wilshire, a four seasons hotel located in Beverly Hills, California.

However, the news of Meghan Markle's car chase has overshadowed another significant award ceremony, the Women of Vision Awards, organized by feminist icon Gloria Steinem.

The attention and resources dedicated to Steinem's event were diminished due to Meghan's actions, leaving Steinem understandably frustrated.

It is unlikely that Meghan will receive any invitations to future feminist award events.

Variety has exclusively revealed that Marlo Thomas will be honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award by the Alliance for Women in Media at the 48th anniversary Gracie Awards.

Marlo Thomas, a multi-talented actress, author, and activist, will receive the award on May 23rd at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel.

This prestigious recognition is bestowed upon women in media who embody the spirit of the late Gracie Allen, after whom the awards ceremony is named.

The event will also feature performances by Sophie Carson and Diane Warren.

Marlo Thomas has made significant contributions to the entertainment industry, earning accolades such as the Golden Globe and Grammy Awards.

She is a member of the Broadcast Hall of Fame and received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Obama in 2014.

Thomas gained fame through her leading role in the sitcom “That Girl” and has since appeared in numerous films and TV shows, including “It Happened One Christmas,” “Ocean's 8,” “Nobody's Child,” and “Friends.”

Becky Brooks, President of the AWMF, described Marlo Thomas as not only an icon in the entertainment industry but also a visionary whose work has had a lasting impact on society.

She shattered stereotypes with her groundbreaking role as Anne-Marie in “That Girl,” paving the way for women in television.

In addition to her remarkable career, Marlo's charitable and activist work with the Miss Foundation for Women and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital has transformed countless lives, making her a symbol of hope and inspiration.

She truly embodies the ethos of AWMF, and the organization is proud to honor her with this year's Lifetime Achievement Award.
