I was home yesterday and I watched Oprah just to see the after show from the Oscars. She had Jamie on and Hillary Swank which I do believe that I am going to have to look at Million Dollar Baby and see what this is about. But Jamie was talking about when he saw Oprah at the Oscars she had come up to him and handed him a tissue. So he was saying to himself, why is she giving me a tissue, does she think I'm going to cry or something. So she comes up to him and was like " give me the gum, take the gum out of your mouth" I was cracking up when I heard this.
I was too! But, it does show that Oprah is looking out for Jamie and black people in general. That's such a black community thing.

Also, I wanted to mention that actors have already signed contracts to do movies while their Oscar worthy movies are being released. Sometimes the timing with their next role is out of their control. Now in the case of Cuba, how can you go from "Boyz N the Hood" to "Snow Dogs?" Even his win for "Jerry Maguire" was a little stereotypical.
