While the Hollywood elite celebrated the best of the best at the Oscar Awards this weekend, the annual Razzie Awards took the time to celebrate the best of the worst.
The man who paints trees to combat bark stripping, Hundreds of Venus flytraps stolen from conservation land, Kimberley has lost it’s sparkle, and Cape Town projects still halted as mafias intimidate contractors.
The Academy is still swallowing lumps for not nominating Greta Gerwig for directing ‘Barbie’, and Kimmel is letting them have it.
Travel agent’s R460 000 ticket ‘bungle’ leaves SA U20 ice hockey team scrambling, Vatican sentences priest and ex-altar server In first-of-its-kind case, ‘Oppenheimer’ leads Oscar contenders with 13 nominations, Bad news for DStv, and ‘Betterment burnout’ is making us miserable.
Apple overtakes Samsung, Emma Stone defends ‘honest’ sex scenes, Firewall change takes down SAPS network, Rand hits over R19 to the dollar, and LIFT named ‘best new airline brand’ by Global Brands Magazine.
A source said that “Tom was not there because she was there, and he did not want a run-in”.
The film full of google eyes, bagel black holes, butt plugs, and sausage fingers landed seven Oscars awards, including best picture, beating all the other nominees by a good stretch.
It’s time to get the cocktail mixers ready for one of the biggest nights in Hollywood.
This year’s Oscars swag bag is possibly even more outrageous than last year’s.
Ramaphosa still dithering while Rome burns, Unemployment rate eases a fraction, Oscars ‘Slap Crises Team’ is a joke, Ghislaine Maxwell appeals conviction, Choccies for breakfast, Ukraine gets a Banksy stamp to annoy Putin, Missing Brazilian’s remains found in shark, and a deadly train derailment in Greece.
De Ruyter jumps Eskom ship amidst political meddling, International hockey coming to Cape Town, SAA gets another R1bn, Clinton Aide with Epstein ties found dead, Wild species saved from ‘food list’, Liam Neeson and the uncomfortable interview, and the Oscars absurd plan to avoid another onstage slap.
As Nicole Kidman once said, “Somehow, heartbreak feels good in a place like this”.
Apple envisioned that ‘Emancipation’, a film featuring Will Smith as an escaped slave during the Civil War era, would be an Oscar contender. Then came that slap.
It has been nearly four months since Will Smith slapped Chris Rock on the Oscars stage and he’s been keeping a low profile ever since.
In the latest episode of her show, Jada talks about the incident and her experience with the hair-loss disease that started all of this in the first place.
Unlike the Golden Globes, where hosts like Ricky Gervais are given free rein, there are some jokes that Oscars hosts are not allowed to make.
The writers and cast of ‘Saturday Night Live’ had plenty of time to digest and then react to The Slap.
Another day, another dissection of The Slap. This time, there’s footage showing Jada Pinkett Smith’s reaction as her husband dishes out a flattie.
Questions are being asked about whether the Oscar-winning actor will struggle to find work in Tinseltown.
Rock’s first stand-up performance since The Slap took place last night in Boston. After receiving a massive ovation, he addressed the elephant in the room.
Ricky Gervais has hosted the Golden Globes on five separate occasions. If he hosted the Oscars, a joke about alopecia would be considered mild.
The Academy has issued a statement strongly condemning that slap, and there have been calls for Smith to have his Oscar taken away.
Where there’s a massively viral video, there’s an ‘Ozzy Man’ review.
There are two specifically heartwarming moments from the 94th Annual Academy Awards that should be getting more attention.
In the apology, Smith said his behaviour was “unacceptable and inexcusable” and stated that “there is no place for violence in a world of love and kindness.”
To social media, we go, and Jaden Smith may be in the minority as Will Smith’s actions are criticised by fellow celebs.
The 94th Academy Awards will be remembered for the moment Will Smith slapped Chris Rock across the face while the latter was presenting the Best Documentary Feature award.
As the nominees get ready to become winners and losers, and we get ready to clap along, here are a few fun Oscars facts, anecdotes, and possible record-breakers to consider.
Netflix’s ‘Power Of The Dog’ landed a very solid 12 nominations, while there were surprise snubs for Lady Gaga and ‘House of Gucci’.
Chinese state-run media outlets and social media sites in China censored the incredible news of Chloe Zhao’s Oscar victory. Here’s why.
