Jennifer Lopez has gone loco y’all. She is under the impression that the Latin version of Glitter deserved to win an Oscar. Why? Because it would have been “so dope” if she could have accepted her award while popping out her twins.
Per Latina Mag:
“I feel like I had that [Oscar worthy role] in “El Cantante,” but I don’t even think the academy members saw it. I feel like it’s their responsibility to do that, to see everything that’s out there, everything that could be great. Well, it is a little bit frustrating. It was funny; when the Oscars were on, I had just given birth on the 22nd, and the Oscars, I think, were a day or two later.
I was sitting there with my twins—I couldn’t have been happier—but I was like, ‘How dope would it have been if I would’ve won the Oscar and been here in my hospital bed accepting the award?’ ‘Thank you so much! I just want to thank the academy!’ But we joked about it. It’s all good. Things will happen when they’re supposed to happen. I have the utmost faith and no doubt that it will one day, when and if it’s supposed to. You can’t get all crazy twisted over it.”
While I am out of the loop with what kids are saying these days, I am pretty sure people don’t say “dope” any more. (I credit my fondness for making children cry as my downfall in the current hot lingo department.) Regardless, unless you were the poster child for the 1987 ‘Just Say No’ program…you probably shouldn’t say dope. Too bad for J.Lo. If the Oscar panel would have been higher than Lindsay Lohan in a blow factory she might have actually had a chance at an award.
So, in summary…Nancy Reagan robbed Lopez of an Oscar.
