Ryan Gosling’s Oscar Oversight Explained

This trenchant observation press release just over the transom at ML HQ: “You’ve probably seen the news by now –- Ryan Gosling has been snubbed by the Academy.

In a recent survey conducted by Badoo , the world’s largest social network for meeting new people, when asked which male celeb they would like to hang out with, people overwhelmingly chose Tim Tebow (31%) and not Ryan, who brought in only 6% of the vote. Even amongst women, Ryan did poorly against the likes of George Clooney, garnering a meager 9% to Clooney’s 24%.” Now you know. [Press release]

We’re not going to have human beings in 20 years. People won’t be talking to other human beings.” Happy Friday? [ Deadline ]
