Here at The Rundown, we feel that everyone in life is a winner; even those who left this year’s Oscars with no golden statue in hand. So for the numerous people who were left on the bitter end of an envelope-opening during Sunday’s ceremony, or weren’t even nominated at all, The Rundown is here to bestow you with awards of our own-awards we like to call, ‘The Runnies’.And this year’s ‘Runnies’ go to:
The ‘I Really Don’t Belong Here’ Award goes to Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, who looked as out of place as R. Kelly would at a Kindergarten recital.
I wonder if he and Cameron Diaz are laughing because she asked him if he had any ‘bitch-assness’ in him?
The ‘I Had Extra Fabric’ Award goes to Heidi Klum (the dress says it all as to why she won this award)….there were no other nominees.
The ‘Look at My Cool New Tattoo’ Award goes to Juno screenwriter Diablo Cody. Every year someone tries their best to make a statement on the red carpet of the Oscars-something people will remember them by. However, if this is her statement, a tattoo of a woman in a bikini, she might as well have worn long sleeves and a shawl.
The ‘I’m Sitting Up in the Stands with the Fans’ Award goes to John Singleton. Sorry John, “Baby Boy” and “The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift” doesn’t hold any weight at the Oscars.
The ‘Yay, I’m Almost 100 Pounds!’ Award goes to Keri Russell. I see someone is missing those ‘Felicity’ checks.
The ‘I Brought Flowers for Everyone’ Award goes to Anne Hathaway. You would think starring in one of the world’s most fashionable movies, “Devils Wear Prada,” would help Anne out a little. But then again, we may be asking for too much-it was just a movie.
The ‘I’m Playing Dress Up in My Mommy’s Clothes’ Awards goes to Miley Cyrus. Since she does have the wig on, does this means that Hannah Montana wasn’t allowed? Maybe next year…
The ‘I Got Mugged for All My Jewelry Right before the Show” Award goes to Tilda Swinton. Maybe she’s allergic to silver…and gold….and platinum…and everything else that makes outfits look great. Who knows?
The ‘I Didn’t Make the Invitation List, but I got Dressed to Attend an After-Party’ Award goes to both Christina Milian and Sanaa Lathan. Even though they weren’t allowed on Oscar premises, both these women looked pretty damn gorgeous.
This wraps up our 1st Annual ‘Runnies.’ Congratulations to all the winners. BET Awards beware, you’re the next big Award show of the ‘08 calendar year.
It’s looking like Jay-Z and Nas are looking to bring Hip Hop back to New York as they are getting set to release a duo album entitled “The Kings of Hip Hop”. This unofficial, yet reliable rumor seems to take place early next year!
According to reliable gossip columnists Rush & Molloy from the New York Daily Post:
Rumors continue to swirl about Jay-Z’s still-unconfirmed new record label, Carter Music Group. We hear that Jay is partnering with rapper Nas on an album of duets, “The Kings of Hip Hop,” to be released on the label early next year. Jay’s rep is keeping tight-lipped.
Could they change the state of Hip Hop with this beginning to Jay-Z’s new “Carter Music Group” label?
Word in Hollywood is that Jamie Foxx has been learning a few things from Mike Tyson as he will play the lead roll in a bopic of the boxers life.
The controversial former boxer says:
“Jamie Foxx and I will be working together. He will play me in the film about my life. We have already had several discussions about it…..Even when I was training for a fight I would drink. This is the first time I have been clean and sober in my whole life.”
We all seen what Jamie did in “Ray”… is this potentially another Academy Award winning role?
Some random ridiculousness is going on as Jay-Z faces a $5 billion lawsuit as Brooklyn activist Clive Campbell filed a “claim of lien” in property records that seeks the money for slavery reparations.
Mr. Ratner, Jay-Z, and Barclay’s are all linked through the $4 billion Atlantic Yards project in Brooklyn, for which Mr. Ratner plans to build a Frank Gehry-designed basketball arena for the Nets and more than 6,000 apartments. Jay-Z, a partial owner of the Nets, has been a major supporter of the project, appearing at press conferences to tout its merits. Barclays owns the naming rights to the arena, and has been accused of having links with the slave trade-an accusation the bank denies.
In the claim, Mr. Campbell said that Mr. Ratner and Jay-Z worked “in concert” with Barclays, and “profited from the African Slave Trade and continue to profit from these gains, through a conspiracy dating back hundreds of years and continue to date to oppress Black people, enslave them, unlawfully deport them to all corners of the Earth.”
