Open Post: Hosted By The FAKE Jenny The Donkey Who Went To The Oscars
Last night’s Oscars was pretty boring, but a few things stirred me from my weed drink-induced stupor: that “Naatu Naatu” song n’ dance number, and Jenny the Donkey, the real star of Banshees of Inisherin. To Colin Farrell’s delight, host Jimmy Kimmel brought Jenny out halfway into the show, joking that, in addition to being an actor, she was also an emotional support donkey — “Or at least that’s what we told the airline to get her on the plane from Ireland.” This disturbed me, because a wee little donkey like Jenny should never get on a plane, even for the Oscars. Also, as we reported yesterday, Jenny was supposed to be living a quiet life in the Irish midlands! So, what gives? A Vulture source cleared things up, revealing that, actually, the Jenny at the Oscars was “just a random donkey.” BAMBOOZLEMENT! Continue reading
Hugh Grant Brought His Signature Grumpiness To His Oscars Interview With Ashley Graham
Just last week, Emily wrote about how known certified grouchy bitch Hugh Grant admitted to busting out a tantrum on an innocent woman he thought was a studio executive on the set of Dungeons & Dragons. Since Hugh has a reputation as a crank to uphold, he seemed visibly thrilled and excited about all the riveting questions that red champagne carpet Oscars host, Ashley Graham, tossed his way last night. Ashley was doing her job of asking a bunch of canned mundane questions, and Hugh seemed to be trying to be dry and witty, but it became a puddle of awkwardness. It was like a conversation between two people who aren’t even on the same book, let alone the same page. And yes, the book that Hugh was on was called Old-Timey Phrases, and the “book” that Ashley Graham was on was an issue of Vanity Fair magazine.
Not Everyone Was Feeling Singer Tems’ View-Blocking Oscars Look
I feel bad for whoever had the unfortunate placement of sitting behind Nigerian singer and nominee Tems at the Oscars because whenever she purchased her outfit, her first thought must have been, “Stretch your neck bitches!” I’m not sure if this was her first time at the ceremony, but I can guarantee you it will be her last time sitting anywhere close to the front since her IDGAF gown is now causing mixed reactions over on Twitter. And some people think her fashion choice was a good idea, while others believe she should have won the award for Best Vision Blocking Vestment.
Nicole Kidman Went Viral For Her Sexy Oscar Posing And Reaction To Host Jimmy Kimmel
Nicole Kidman has been nominated for five, count ’em, FIVE Oscars. She won Best Actress once for her performance as a woman with a fake nose in The Hours (2003). But, last night, Nicole was just a presenter, so the stakes were considerably lower. She could channel all her energy into giving us fierce, slutty glamour on the red champagne carpet in her black, one-shoulder Armani Privé dress. And so she did! The Independent reports that Nicole’s dramatic poses went viral, with the kids on Twitter saying she was “THAT bitch”, and “serving absolute cunt”. Ya hear that, Nicole? You’re a bitch and a cunt!

Angela Bassett Gets Love From Fans After Her Reaction To Losing The Best Supporting Actress Oscar Goes Viral
Everything Everywhere All At Once seriously slapped down its competition last night (and not in a Will Smith kind of way) by cleaning up at the Oscars. It added to its awards show haul with Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director (for The Daniels, Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert), Best Original Screenplay (The Daniels), Best Actress (Michelle Yeoh), Best Supporting Actor (Ke Huy Quan), Best Film Editing, and Best Supporting Actress (Jamie Lee Curtis), for a grand total of seven wins. But while some wins for EEAAO were a shoo-in (Best Picture and Best Supporting Actor), others didn’t seem as much of a lock. Going into last night’s Oscars, it seemed that the Best Supporting Actress win was going to go to either Angela Bassett (Black Panther: Wakanda Forever), Jamie Lee Curtis (EEAAO), or Kerry Condon (The Banshees of Inisherin). Jamie Lee, of course, got the Oscar. And Angela Basset’s reaction to losing out on another Oscar got attention with some feeling for her, while others called her “rude.” And yes, those “others” should remember their diss tweets for when they get to the Gates of Heaven and are locked out due to daring to drag THEE Angela Bassett.
Jimmy Kimmel Addressed THE SLAP In His Oscars Opening Monologue
For anyone hoping there would be a repeat of last year’s slap-happy Academy Awards ceremony, I’m sorry to disappoint you. It was just as stale as it’s always been for the past nine decades. Well, that’s what I’m assuming because I didn’t watch that mess. However, I wish I could have at least caught Jimmy Kimmel‘s opening monologue in real time because he skewered most of the people in that room like they were on the menu at Benihana. But it was what he had to say about Will Smith‘s infamous pimp slap to Chris Rock‘s face that ironically left a sting across Will‘s face as he watched from the comfort of his own home like the rest of y’all.
