In her Tuesday Vanity Fair cover, the topic of the One Battle After Another star being an Oscar contender (described as "the Oscar-shaped elephant in the room") this year came up. "It's so crazy, because I don't like to jinx it," Taylor said in the profile. "I get so shy when everybody starts talking about award season and stuff."

"Being with Sarah Paulson and Glenn Close and Naomi Watts and Niecy Nash and Kim Kardashian," she said, as the outlet noted that many of those actresses have all received acting nominations throughout their careers, continuing, "It's like, they're all in my ear. Like, 'You better get ready, you gotta get ready.' I'm like, oh my God. I try not to get my head too wrapped around me, just trying to stay grounded and not getting to a place where I'm obsessed with the outcome." The profile was conducted ahead of Taylor being nominated for an Actor Award (previously known as SAG Awards) and winning a Golden Globe for her performance as Perfidia Beverly Hills in One Battle After Another. After her name was called for the latter prize, she burst into tears and shared a message to Black women in her acceptance speech. "To my brown sisters and little brown girls watching tonight, our softness is not a liability," Taylor said. "Our depth is not too much. Our light does not need permission to shine. We belong in every room we walk into. Our voices matter and our dreams deserve space." Of her All's Fair co-stars, Paulson is an Emmy winner; Close is an EGOT nominee, having won three Emmys and Tonys, among others; Watts is a two-time Academy Award nominee; and Niecy Nash-Betts is also an Emmy winner. Taylor also noted that the All's Fair cast all "actually really like each other." She added of the Ryan Murphy-led ensemble, "Some people can't wait to get off work. Like, we get to work and be like, Oh, we're done already? All right, well, let's go to the house and have a slumber party." Taylor also touched on the differences of working with powerhouse Hollywood men and women, given her work with the One Battle After Another (with the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Penn, Benicio Del Toro and Paul Thomas Anderson) and All's Fair casts. "When you're on set with all girls, you have the group chat, and it's like, chatty, and we're just having a ball, and it was like, 'Oh my God, does anybody have this? Oh my God, Kim, I need you to call over to Skims. I need a bra ASAP.' Our group chat is just so lit. And it's a sisterhood," she explained. "You get to share more, whereas with your brothers, it's just like, Why tell my brother right now what I am going through? They're gonna be like, 'Who did it, where they at?'" Of her breakout year, which has been years in the making, with roles in Anderson's Oscar contender One Battle After Another and the wildly viral Hulu series, Taylor told The Hollywood Reporter, "You can see my patience being in this game since I was 15, doing a little bit of everything." "This moment hits a lot harder than it would've if everything had gone my way when I wanted it to," she added.
