Why she might be annoying:

    She is divorced.
    Her picture was mistakenly used in the 'In Memoriam' section during the 2016 Oscars.
    She was friends with the late costume designer Janet Patterson who was named in that mishap and whom she has worked with.
    She happened to be watching the segment when she saw her photo under her friend's name.

Why she might not be annoying:

    Devastated, she emailed Variety magazine about the mistake.
    She worked with many Oscar-winning actors.
    She is friends with fellow Australian Jane Campion .
    She married twice as of 2017 and is still with her current husband.
    Her snafu happened in the same Oscars show with the other now-famous blunder of Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway's announcing the wrong Best Picture winner (La La Land, Moonlight was the real winner.)
    She looks a tad like Helen Mirren!
