Here's What Tonya Harding Texted to Allison Janney After Her Oscar Nomination for 'I, Tonya'!

Allison Janney was nominated for a 2018 Academy Award for her work in I, Tonya today, and she’s spilling details about what the real Tonya Harding texted her after learning the news!

“I got a lovely text from her this morning congratulating me saying, ‘You’re going to the big top, girl!’ Which was very sweet of her,” Allison told People. Allison plays Tonya’s mother, LaVona, in the film.

“First of all, I was in bed last night at 9 p.m. to try to get a good night’s sleep, which is just a joke – I didn’t sleep one wink. At 5 a.m. my bedroom door flew open and six people came jumping into my bed. I was floored, I had all these people who flew in from New York to be with me. It was just the most special morning to get up and watch the announcement with dear friends and family,” Allison added. Congrats!
