His acceptance speech was quite moving, the last bit in particular👏

You feel happy knowing that he got what he wanted so badly and worked so hard for and more importantly that he respects this honour bestowed on him unlike others who keep their Oscars in their toilet and the like

Kate keeping her Oscar in the loo isn't derogatory at all. How strange to think it is so esp if One has seen her acceptance speech & near crying on stage!! She was nominated a lot, though not as much as BFF Leo, but didn't win an Oscar until The Reader. The loo is the best place to keep the Oscar b/c everyone visits the loo!!! It's the perfect place b/c it's such a HumbleBrag! Unless you expected her to frame it & prop it on a wall!


Expect Leo to follow his BFF love here too.

Damn was that my Katy

I did not even remember who did it, should research before posting so that it does not backfire on one of my faves😆

P.S. Leo is definitely framing it BTW or well he could come up with more innovative ways to use it too...damn gutter mind☺️

^ LOL. Ya that was Kate Winslet. It's a well/known fact that she had placed her Oscar in the loo & I for one, loved it! It's such a humble brag & yet a quirky place to put it. It also diminishes narcissism that we generally equate with international top stars. 😆 I hope that Leo DC doesn't put his on the wall because that's just stupid. And arrogant. 😆

Good that Leo finally won , was a very weak competition in best actror category though.
Stallone should have won supporting actor , and would have not been a sympathetic one

But MEB don't most people, even aam aadmi types keep their awards and trophies well preserved, if not showcased and is it really that arrogant. Not just talking about Oscars but any award or medal. You may have worked rather hard for it and want to keep it that way as a memento.

^ Ofc all of us do & we preserve it. But preservation is different from putting it up on a wall. That's only for people, not for you. 😆

Learnt this from my brother when my mother wanted his Distinction certificate from Oxford to be framed on the wall. He ran away & has it in his room because it just attracts jealousy & negativity!

^ Yes!! Also people who go around subtly or otherwise bragging about their achievements are stupid. So are people who are elitists. Success
Isn't always due to smartness etc
But a combination of that & lots of discipline & hard work. And luck! That's a big, big ingredient for Success.

People & their jealousy, insecurity & negativity is immensely harmful! Why should Leo win an Oscar. He rather have people exclaim over why he hasn't won an Oscar till now.

i was working in the lab, then my friend texted me in watsapp that Leo won, and i was about to drop the test tube, screamed so loudly , and then the grumpy lab instructor asked me what happened, and after i yelled out that Leo won, she also screamed, and then everybody in the lab started taking selfies and posting in Facebook that Leo won, Leo won ...
i for a moment thanked my god that , you made this happen before my death and yes Leo won an oscar
