Hey Did Anyone hear that Eminem is more than likely gonna be nominated for Best Actor at the Oscars.

Now i bet he doesn't get it for these reasons:

1/ The 'Academy' will not wanna be seen to praise the work of someone that offends so many people.

2/ The 'Academy' will not want to give the impression that any old rapper can walk in and be the best in the movie business.

The Academy are all crooks anyway.

Personally i think He was great in 8 mile and if he gets the oscar i think he become larger than life, which he thinks he is already.

I think the only chance he wil ge the oscar is so that the 'Academy' will boost their ratings in the 15 to 25 category.

What you guys think?
