she’s an absolute MESS and trying to play the victim on her twitter, it really is a ride.

i can’t get over the fact these are journalists allowed at the oscars, it’s disgusting tbh. no fact checking and no one there to proof read their questions beforehand it’s really unprofessional and not what you’d expect from such an event. really upsetting for all the journalists out there who could’ve had this gig instead

the lack of simple homework on EVERYONE’S parts was enraging. pivoting to presenters, you’ve had your categories nominees for how long and you didn’t google them to figure out how to pronounce their name right?!

only pass is for regina because she pronounced borat wrong.

mte they should allow ontd members to do the interviews, at least we know wtf we're talking about
