Actor Seth Rogen has said the quiet part out loud and confessed the truth about self-important Hollywood award shows, like the Oscars: America doesn’t seem to care about them anymore.
Speaking with Insider about his upcoming Super Bowl commercial, the Knocked Up star said he does not understand why movie insiders and stars would think the general public cares about awards shows come Oscars season.
“I don’t get why movie people care so much if other people care what awards we give ourselves,” Seth Rogen said.
“To me, maybe people just don’t care,” he added. “I don’t care who wins the automobile awards. No other industry expects everyone to care about what awards they shower upon themselves. Maybe people just don’t care. Maybe they did for a while and they stopped caring. And why should they?”
Hollywood award shows have gone from fun showcases of talented actors with real star power to network televised lectures, in which the most privileged and pompous people on the planet talk down to and insult the citizens of real America who helped make them rich.

Hollywood basically doesn’t exist where my spending habits are concerned.
It’s not that they don’t care about the actors anymore - it’s because the actors (like Seth Rogen) despise America.
A superspreader event would be....justice.
was this a revelation???
or just finally admitting it to the public...
And? Keep going Seth. No one cares about your stupid opinions .
The annual meeting of the “Mutual Admiration Society” has long ago outlived it’s relevance.
America doesn’t care what Seth Rogen thinks, either.
They need us, we don’t need them. Soooo many free old movie apps out there now.
Entertainers, politicians and pro athletes are generally small people with big heads.
Another broken clock today. First Jon Stewart and now this guy.
“Hollywood basically doesn’t exist where my spending habits are concerned.”
Ditto that.
He’s right on this one.
Who is he anyways?
Hollywood gets ZERO cash from me.
While I don’t care about his opinions, I’m glad he finally understood and is trying to explain to his peers why I don’t watch their award shows.
Last time I went to a movie was “Iron Man” in 2008...
He’s one of the biggest leftards in Hollywood. Maybe he should look himself in the mirror..
Uh oh someone has poked their head out of their bubble. So Seth is a man of the people now?
My wife and I used to really enjoy the Oscars, when the show was about movies. Before they started giving pompous political speeches and insulting ordinary Americans. But, Hollywood doesn’t seem to get that we just don’t give a damn about that and that’s why nobody is watching their shows.
Seth Rogan, another member of the “Mysterious famous” club. He is famous and nobody can figure out just what for. Maybe it’s that BS Ted Baxter voice of his.
I think Vanessa Redgrave started it off in 1977 when she got on stage and bashed Israel. I remember when I was a kid in the 1970s the Oscars was a huge thing on TV, my mom and Aunt would have parties the day it broadcast and then we had to guess who the winners would be. Today at 83 she wants nothing to do with it.
