I Never heard about this before
It’s funny everyone feels bad for Billie and doesn’t even criticize her for being disappointed but when Angela does it she received backlash (and yes I know these are two different award shows but the point still stands)
What was the deal with her performance? I would have ranked Basset 5th of the nominees. I've seen that performance a million times before. Get over it.
Why do you think you think you are so entitled that just because you’re up there and your skin color is the darker that you should get a good one for you want to get a big boo-boo! You could at least act like a adult .. and not look like a spoiled rotten Back didn’t get around them away!
We're STILL talking about this?????
The best part is that I don't really remember anything about Jamie Lee Curtis. Yeah, I know the scene with the sausage hands and speech was the highlight of her character but she doesn't leave me an impact. Stephanie Hsu does that. If someone from this movie who should win an Oscar, it's her. She's the scene stealer and spotlight of this movie.
