In the first announcement from The Irish Film and Television Awards, Meryl Streep has won this year’s Pantene Best International Actress Award for her performance in the romantic comedy ‘It’s Complicated’. Streep, who won the same award last year for her role in ‘Mamma Mia!’, faced competition from fellow nominees Penelope Cruz (‘Broken Embraces’), Marion Cotillard (‘Nine’) and Anna Kendrick (‘Up in the Air’). The award is the only People’s Choice category at the IFTAs, and the Irish public voted in their thousands for Streep. The awards ceremony will be held at The Burlington Hotel, Dublin on Saturday, February 20th and will be broadcast live on RTE One that evening.
