During the Oscars Sunday night, Sean Penn presented the Best Actress Oscar. He made a comment during his presentation where he said,”I never became an official member of the academy, but the academy and I do have in common that we neglected to acknowledge the same actress in our own ways two years running.” It is believed he was referring to his ex-wife, Robin Wright. Wright was just in the film The Private Lives of Pippa Lee, and I guess he believed she should have been nominated. I have not seen this film, but I have heard it was terribly boring.
Later that night, Penn confronted Wright’s new boyfriend, Greg Shapiro. Shapiro is one of the producers of Oscar winning(but not deserving), “Hurt Locker.” It was reported that Sean Penn was then uninvited from the Governor’s Ball due to his confrontation with Shapiro backstage. Penn’s reps deny this and said Penn decided just not to show up. Unfortunately, I do not believe Penn’s reps. Last week Penn wished all his “haters” to have rectal cancer. Penn does have an attitude, but I still love this guy. He is a trip.
