18 Unanswered Questions I Have About The Oscars

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Winthrop chapter.

I would easily consider myself a movie buff. I love to watch movies, critique actors, and compare different movie genres to each other. But, something that I love even more than watching the movies is watching the award shows.

I’ve been watching the Oscars every year since I was younger. But, as I’m watching it this year I realize I have SO many questions that haven’t ever been answered. And, I’m sure I can’t be the only one who has these questions.

Here are my 18 unanswered questions I have about the Oscars!

1. Who votes for the movies?

2. How do I become a person who votes for the movies?

3. Can I really get paid to be the person to vote for the movies?

4. If so, what did they major in?

5. Did they see the movies in the theatres? If so did they get popcorn every time?

 

6. How do the nominees get invited?

7. How do I get invited to the Oscars?

8. How do they make the seating charts?

9. What kind of deodorant do the people wear? They literally do not sweat.

10. Where do the Oscar winners keep their trophies?

11. Do the presenters read off of a teleprompter?

12. Do all celebrities know each other?

13. Is there one giant after-party?

14. How many trophies have been made before?

15. Do celebrities ask each other what they’re wearing ahead of time?

16. Do celebrities fangirl over each other?

17. How many times do they have to rehearse?

18. Can I please get invited for next year?

Happy Oscars viewing, Collegiettes!
