It's a great lesson to always be yourself. Just because your peers and those around you choose to dress up in suits and expensive clothing doesn't mean you have to. Why not be comfortable? It's a long night and I have to imagine it can't be very comfortable sitting there for hours in a fancy dress or suit. I respect Adam Sandler for doing what he does and being himself. Of course Oscars host Conan O'Brien didn't let it go unnoticed. It was one of my favorite moments from Oscars night. Check out the hilarious moment below.
Adam Sandler Wears Signature Basketball Shorts And Hoodie At 2025 Oscars
Seriously, is he not the coolest guy ever? Very few people could pull this off and Adam Sandler is one of them. It seems like anytime he's seen out and about in public he's wearing something similar so why be any different for the Oscars? It's not like he was going to be accepting any awards that night or anything, he wasn't nominated for anything so why not go comfy?
He even invited the crowd to a pick-up basketball game! Again, he has to be one of the coolest dudes on earth. Hopefully one day he will win an Oscar for himself and when that day comes maybe he should wear a suit but I'd respect him even more if he stuck with his signature look.
That wasn't the only thing that happened during the night. Anora won Best Picture, Mikey Madison (Anora) won Best Actress, Adrien Brody (The Brutalist) won Best Actor, Kieran Culkin (A Real Pain) won Best Supporting Actor, and Zoe Saldana (Emilia Perez) won Best Supporting Actress. I usually don't care much for award shows but I think Conan did a great job and there were some memorable moments from the show. Kieran Culkin's acceptance speech will certainly be talked about for a while, hopefully he gets those kids he was promised!
5 Awards Shows That Have Run Their Course
The People's Choice Awards were tonight. I tried to watch some of it before quickly giving up. You think the Super Bowl is full or corporate nonsense? Wait until you see...basically every awards show. Here are 5 awards shows that have run their course.
Maybe it wasn't always this way. There was a time these awards shows meant something. Today? I think things have changed.
5 Awards Shows That Have Run Their Course
Is it just me or does it all feel so forced? Sometimes, it seems like even the people winning the awards aren't even having fun. It's hard to blame them. It seems like there's a new awards show every other day. Especially if you're in country music. Seriously, every weekend I feel like I'm seeing an ad for the "biggest night in country music." Every night can't be the biggest night! That's not how it works!
The TV awards have lost their appeal and can't even get anyone to host them. Sorry, Jo Koi. Then, the music awards are either too common or just too typical. The same artists seem to win every year, it's hard for us to care. Additionally, the big movie awards are often a bore. How often have you seen every movie nominated for Best Picture? Personally, when the list comes out that's the first time I've heard of many of the movies! Maybe that's partly on me, though.
Seriously, awards shows have gotten so bad that I feel like I look forward to the list of winners of the Razzies more than I do the Oscars! At least the Razzies are funny and entertaining. The Oscars is so meh. Good for them. However, we're the ones who suffer.
So, here are 5 awards shows that have run their course. It's time for something new and exciting. Get our attention again! It's time for something different, before people stop caring all together.
The Academy Awards
Like I said earlier, the winners aren't always the most popular blockbusters. in fact, they rarely are. They tend to go to really artsy movies that are enjoyed by people who call movies "films." I can't blame them, that's who it's for. However, they need to think about the audience. Maybe add a best comedy movie? Best horror? That could be cool. I'd pay attention.
The Grammys
It seems like the same people win every year. Sometimes I didn't even know they released new music! It's boring. Even the artists are starting to catch on and not care. They need to listen to the audience more. We want something fresh and new!
The Golden Globes
They couldn't find a host, then when they do people aren't pleased and complain. There's no winning. Sure, we could just let Ricky Gervais every year. I would like that. However, I think Hollywood would crumble. There's no solution. Plus, the Emmys are the bigger deal, right?
The People's Choice Awards
I didn't even know this was on until I was channel surfing. I watched literally a minute before I couldn't stand it anymore. It was a lot. Too much for me. Is this really what we're voting for? Who are these People in question? I need answers. Adam Sandler won a big award and I still couldn't bring myself to watch. That's how bad they are!
MTV Video And Music Awards
When's the last time something cool happened at one of these? They used to be iconic! Artists with beef with meet up and collar and it would be insanely awesome. Or, celebrities would kiss on stage. You never knew what might happen! What happened to those days?
