Exactly! That's what I was trying to say earlier. I'm a Jew and I don't think she said anything anti-semetic. Incorrect, yes, hateful, no.

I've made no secret of the fact I'm Jewish. Kewpie is nice to me. If she was such an anti-semite, why would she be nice to me?

she just hates italians cuz shes mean to me and Buzzetta.

Agreed I think with Kewpie it just came out wrong(sounding).

I don't think she particularly hates Jews... she just hates people in general, but that's another story ;D

I meant in my post that she used the term "Jews" then corrected herself by writting "Jewish people" instead....

Anyway who cares... we all know that the stupid Academy Awards, and pretty much all other awards shows are bullshit.... most of the winners win because they kiss the most ass.... not because they were the best at what they do....

I do like the Independent Spirits Awards tho... most times they do rewards talent over hype <3

Brando (a long and well known supporter of Israel) discussed this in some depth on Larry King a few years ago and was absolutely pillioried for it.

Brando was an acting God(dess) & a truth teller <333

Yayyyy

[iamnicola]

yeah, yeah, poor Heath, but dont you know that an oscar means $ to a living actor, do you really want to see that taken away from one of the other nominees?

Robby, that's pretty messed up.

so... If you were gay, Jewish, and Japanese, you could rule the industry?

Will Mary Kate accept the award for Heath? Will a bottle of pills fall out of her pocket onstage? Does Mary Kate have a hyphen?

M.I.A. Responds to Oscar Nod: “I Can Afford to Book Dave Chappelle at the Baby Shower Now”

Yesterday’s Oscar-nomination news brought disappointment to legions of Bruce Springsteen fans expecting the Jersey legend to score a nod for “The Wrestler.” But it made one pregnant Sri Lankan MC who resides in Brooklyn pretty damn happy:

“This is a great honor. Thank you to all the people who are supporting us and the making of a real story of a slumdog millionaire,” M.I.A. says. “Maybe I can afford to book Dave Chappelle at the baby shower now. Thank you again; My mum wants everyone to know what wonderful news this is for her.”

M.I.A. is due to give birth the night of the Grammys (February 8th), which means she could possibly make it to the Oscars on February 22nd in Los Angeles to perform “O… Saya,” the song she and Slumdog Millionaire score composer A.R. Rahman wrote for the Danny Boyle-directed film. M.I.A. is up for Record of the Year at the annual music awards, where she’ll face off against Coldplay, Robert Plant & Alison Krauss, Leona Lewis, and Adele. Slumdog is also up for Best Picture, Best Director and Best Score, and even Rolling Stone movie critic Peter Travers (who is pissed about many of the nominations) gives the film’s nods the thumbs up.

Last year’s Best Song trophy went to Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova for “Falling Slowly” from Once. That track was up against three song from the fairytale flick Enchanted and “Raise It Up” from August Rush. This year the rules changed, so only two songs from any film could receive nominations.

I hope they have AMY WINEHOUSE as a presenter this year...

these fucking award shows have become boring and stale.... the fact that The Dark Knight wasn't nominated for Best Pic will decrease vieweship of the telecast by at least 5-10million..... then the unfunny/fuglyass host will decresed viewership by another 10million.........

They were boring before you were born. There are no stars anymore, etc. (but it's true)
