And the Oscar goes to...uhhhhhhh.
This morning, as Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences president Cheryl Boone-Isaacs proudly announced the nominations for Best Cinematography for the 87th Academy Awards Nominations, she said “Dick Poop.”
Hehehehehe.
The nom was intended for Dick Pope, cinematographer of Mr. Turner, and Boone-Isaacs quickly caught and corrected her mistake. But she did it right after correctly pronouncing Lukasz Zal and Ryszard Lenczewski (fellow nominees), which makes it all the funnier.
NEWS: Here are 7 Oscar nominations we wanted to see (but didn’t)
We’re not the only immature ones who found this hilarious:
"Dick Poop." - Cheryl Boone Isaacs ... and Cheryl Strayed.
