They claim it is not diverse enough for them this year. Butt hurt actors with big egos did not get nominated so they will not attend. Who cares.

I don't understand why this is even an issue in this day and age?  If an actor deserves a nomination, he/she should get one.  There shouldn't be a need to "diversify".

It looks like spoiled sportsmanship to me. If I'm not nominated, I'm not going.

If the Academy isn't recognizing black actors who deserve credit, then they should review the process.

I believe from what I saw on tmz that their playing favorites and passing actors who should have been nominated and it was mostly black people. The ones who were actually nominated and won shouldn't have according to the other black actors and celebraties.

If black actors are in movies for that year that are not very good, then audition for better roles next year. It's not a conspiracy against Will Smith.

Multi millionaire actors and fairness do not belong in the same sentence. I'm going to boycott the Oscars too, but not because I feel Will Smith's pain.

She sure as fuck nailed it. We shall overcome for actors who aren't nominated for their shitty performances.

Diversification?! Malarkey! Everywhere you turn, we are already diverse! Did no one notice? Gasp!



It's what Herman said. It's just the 'because I'm not nominated, I'm not going' tantrum.



Anyway, we can't please everyone. She is also just looking out for her man.
