Who watched the Oscar Awards on Sunday night?
I did and I thought it was the nastiest award show I have ever seen! There is a fine line between edgy humor and being down right mean! Seth MacFarlane was just plain mean!
From the opening act, to the bitter end, when he and Kristin Chenoweth sang the “Loser’s Song” I was truly shocked and horrified!
I wonder, who thinks this stuff is funny? If he was saying this stuff about me, I would be offended. I know my skin isn’t real thick, but do people anywhere have thick enough skin to withstand his assault.
Add to that the song about boobs. You know what, it is bad enough to endure commercials for incontinence products, but I do not want some jerk who has never had to harness a pair of boobs, singing about them!
The winners were not unexpected, and the gowns beautiful, if not costly (I think one could buy a house for the cost), and the Hollywood types once again patted themselves on the back.
Did you know that each Oscar nominee will receive an “Everybody Wins at the Oscars” gift basket, aka Swag Bag, worth just less than $48,000. They have to pay taxes on this “gift”, but that is chump change in Hollywood.
Perhaps Seth MacFarlane was right to diss them the way he did, but somehow I truly like most of the actors there and felt nothing but revulsion for his twisted humor.
I wasn’t impressed and didn’t think it was funny either. I hope next year is better. Love YOU, Mel
I was offended by Jennifer Lawrence flipping the bird at her post award interview and also the way that Ben Affleck and George Clooney spoke to a female reporter at their post award interview. I was very impressed by the musical routines and Seth Macfarlane’s sense of humour doesn’t bother me. Doubt he’ll be asked to do it next year though!
