Nominated for Best Actress in Drama and Best Supporting Actress at 2009 Satellite Awards, the Hollywood star has to give up the titles to fellow competitors, Shohreh Aghdashloo and Mo'Nique.

Emily Blunt has impressed critics with her performance on both "The Young Victoria" and "Sunshine Cleaning", leading to her being nominated for two 2009 Satellite Awards titles. When the winners of the awards were announced however, it was unraveled that she has lost to Shohreh Aghdashloo and Mo'Nique.

On Monday, December 21, the International Press Academy made public Shohreh Aghdashloo bested Blunt in the category for Best Actress in Drama, and Mo'Nique stole her chance at securing Best Supporting Actress title. While she failed to add her award collection, her co-star in "The Devil Wears Prada" Meryl Streep took home Best Actress in Comedy/Musical honor for her performance in "Julie & Julia".

The 26-year-old was not the only double-nominated actress who walked away with no kudo. Her fellow competitor Penelope Cruz has to admit defeat as well. Nonetheless, both of Cruz' movies nailed at least one award. "Broken Embraces" was in tie with "The Maid" for Best Foreign Language Film, while "Nine" won Best Motion Picture in Comedy or Musical and Best Cinematography.

The event, held Sunday at the InterContinental Hotel in Century City, also handed out honors for achievement in television. "Glee" came out dominating with four gongs. It landed Best Television Series for Comedy or Musical, as well as three of the acting honors for Lea Michele, Matthew Morrison and Jane Lynch.

The complete winners of the 14th Annual Satellite Awards in the categories of motion picture and television are provided. Other winners can be checked out at International Press Academy.
