Sweet moment Kaley Cuoco burst into tears after being nominated for first Golden Globe award

Kaley Cuoco has shared the sweet moment she learned she had been nominated for her very first Golden Globe award.

Despite her former Big Bang Theory co-stars being nominated numerous times for their parts in the long series, Kaley was always left out until now!

The 35-year-old actress burst into tears of joy after receiving the nomination for her lead role in the murder-mystery comedy The Flight Attendant.

"Oh my God. I can't believe it," she told her husband, Karl Cook, who was filming her reaction.  

Aside from Kaley's best actress nod, The Flight Attendant - which the star helped produce - was also nominated for Best Television Series in the Musical or Comedy category.

The Crown is facing competition from Lovecraft Country, The Mandalorian, Ozark and Ratched for the Best Television Series gong.

Ozark has received four nominations in all, including Best Performance By An Actress In A Television Series (Laura Linney), Best Performance By An Actor In A Television Series (Jason Bateman) and Best Performance By An Actress In A Supporting Role (Julia Garner).

The hit show has been nominated for the coveted accolade alongside The Queen's Gambit, Small Axe, The Undoing and Unorthodox.

In the film categories, three women have been nominated for the Best Director gong for the first time ever.

Emerald Fennell, Regina King, and Chloe Zhao have received nods for Promising Young Woman, One Night in Miami and Nomadland respectively.

Mank, the biographical drama film about screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz, has been handed six nominations.

The David Fincher-directed movie has landed nominations for Best Film, Best Actor for Gary Oldman, Best Director for Fincher, Best Supporting Actress for Amanda Seyfried, Best Score, and Best Screenplay.

Meanwhile, Sacha Baron Cohen's Borat Subsequent Moviefilm has received three nods from the Hollywood Foreign Press.
