Oscar Prediction: All Best Actress Nominees Are Already Winners

This predictions not too bold, but the prospect kind of interesting. This year's lead lady Oscar contenders isn't necessarily a shallow pool, but there are some definite leading ladies who's name's simply seem to sound right when it comes to Oscar. The Actress Oscar Club might not grow at all this year - in fact, I predict that the 5 Oscar nominees in the lead actress category have already won an Oscar previously.

Here's my predictions, as well as their current films and previous nomination/win record.
