John Bailey, president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, announce that the Academy will present Jussie Smollett and Alec Baldwin special Oscars
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will make two extra Oscar presentations to Jussie Smollett and Alec Baldwin. John Bailey president of the Academy, made the last-minute announcement on Friday.
Smollett will be awarded a special Oscar for Best Actor In a Non-Movie and Non-TV Show performance. Baily predicted that Smollett’s performance during an hour-long interview by ABC’s Robin Roberts would be impossible to surpass.
Baldwin will be awarded a special Oscar for Best Impersonator of the President.
Bailey also announced that the Academy was going to present Abel and Ola Osundairo with a special Oscar for Best Makeup Artist In a Non-Movie and Non-TV Show performance for making Smollett look like he had been beaten up. However that award was withdrawn when the Academy’s Board of Governors learned that Smollett did his own facial make-up job.
