When Marlon Brando Rejected His Oscar - 1973
In 1973, Marlon Brando made Oscar history.
After winning Best Actor for The Godfather, he refused to accept the award and sent activist Sacheen Littlefeather in his place
On stage, she explained that Brando declined the Oscar in protest of Hollywood’s portrayal of Native Americans and in response to the recent events at Wounded Knee, where tensions between the U.S. government and Native American activists had erupted.
Her appearance was met with both applause and boos, becoming one of the most controversial and courageous moments in Oscar history — a reminder that cinema and politics sometimes collide on the world’s biggest stage.

Halsey tells Zane Lowe she can’t make an album right now:
“I’m not allowed to…’The Great Impersonator’ didn’t perform the way they thought it would. It sold 100k copies first week, that’s a pretty big first week…the tour is the highest selling tour of my career. But they want ‘MANIC’ numbers from me. I can’t do that every time. It should be good enough I do it once in a while…I’m not a pop star anymore, but I’m being compared to numbers and people that I don’t consider lateral to me.”
@avid_raven18902@SojoboJoe@MattWallace888 Bro it’s SD near the airport… have you been to mission bay, corranado or PB? Hard to not hit something military. Also it was Dave shapiros plane a talent agent in the pop punk/ emo scene.
@updatesandsuch@thekiaforum@billieeilish@charli_xcx It’s genuinely so sad to see 80% (conservative guess) of them on their phones. Idc if they were “moving” or “jumping”. Call me an old head if you want but damn it’s disappointing to see this is what seeing a show has come to be. Love me my Charli and Billie tho
@michaelaerwhyn@Angeliccrip @cheetowafflez @Emily_Art My husband and I found someone in Vegas to foster him while we were living in a shelter. The tree of us now have a new home and can start to rebuild our lives. Bless you for your love and concern💕✨
