The People’s Choice Awards took a shocking turn when Rachel Zegler, known for her role in “Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes,” snagged the “Best Action Star” title. Yes, you read that right – a young actress crooning to some CGI reptiles managed to outshine Keanu Reeves and Tom Cruise, who both pulled off jaw-dropping stunts in their latest action-packed flicks. What on earth is happening in Hollywood these days?
Was it Rigged? You'll Never Believe Who Beat Keanu Reeves and Tom Cruise For 2023's 'Best Action Star' via @WestJournalism https://t.co/jIEVch1FLh

Fans and critics alike are scratching their heads at this seemingly nonsensical decision, and for good reason. Keanu Reeves literally tumbled down 50 flights of stairs, and Tom Cruise fearlessly rode a motorcycle off a cliff for real in “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning.” These are legitimate action hero moves, not just prancing around with CGI serpents!
Moreover, there are rumblings that Disney may have meddled in the award show to boost Zegler’s standing in the industry. Some suspect that the voting process was tampered with, and one financial analyst even aired his suspicions on YouTube, suggesting that Disney had a hand in rigging the results. And let’s not forget Zegler’s controversial comments about Disney’s upcoming “Snow White” remake, which stirred up a whole lot of trouble and led to a year-long delay in the movie’s release.
So, what’s the deal with honoring Zegler as the best action star when her cinematic feats are put up against Reeves and Cruise’s impressive physical prowess? It seems like political correctness and Hollywood favoritism are overshadowing genuine talent and hard work. It’s high time the entertainment industry gets its act together and acknowledges the real action stars who are out there risking life and limb for our entertainment. Let’s hope the industry learns from this debacle and gives credit where it’s due next time around.
