Multiple reports hold that this year’s Oscars won’t require vaccines in part because some nominees aren’t vaccinated>P
One of the more baffling news reports this week is that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will not be requiring COVID-19 vaccinations for attendees of the 2022 Oscars. And on Thursday night during his opening monologue, Jimmy Kimmel joked that it’s time to “wildly speculate” about who precisely the Academy is catering to.
“Let the witch hunt begin,” he joked.
So, in case you’re catching up, supposedly, despite having a vaccine mandate for all employees, the Academy has ditched a vaccine mandate — apparently because some of the nominees in major awards categories are not vaccinated. Despite the still-ongoing pandemic and a national death toll of over 900,000, the Oscars apparently also won’t require masks. It will require a negative COVID-19 test, however.
Before we go further, the Academy hasn’t actually announced its COVID policy yet, and it didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment from TheWrap.
Now let’s check back in with Jimmy Kimmel.
“The Oscars are coming up,” Kimmel said, noting that per reports, “attendees at the Oscars show will not have to show proof of vaccination. Which I assume is the Academy’s round about way of announcing that Rob Schneider is hosting the show.”
“It’s Rob and Nicki Minaj’s cousin’s friend,” Kimmel continued.
“You only have to show a PCR test at the door to enter. Why they’re doing this, I don’t know. Maybe they have some extra spots in the In Memoriam to fill,” Kimmel jokes. “But, the rumor is that some of the actors, including some of the actors that are nominated this year, aren’t vaccinated and they don’t want to lose them.”
“So now it’s up to all of us to wildly speculate as to which ones they are. Let the witch hunt begin,” he continued.
“I wonder how the right wing news outlets are gonna handle this. I mean, is Hollywood a bunch of hypocrites, or, ‘Are the stars just like us?'” Kimmel added.
Watch the whole monologue at the top of the page. The vaccine stuff begins 9 minutes, 5 seconds in.
Check the obituaries, that’ll give that idiot a clue.

Kimmel, Kimmel - wasn’t he the guy who used to go around trying to get strange women to fish around in his pants pockets?
SPJNK (Kimmel for one)
Jimmy wants to know about the Exlaxers 🤪
I suspect the unvaccinated are mostly members of protected groups, and it would cause a lot of cognitive dissonance if they were criticized.
Welcome to Free Republic.
Says the saline vaccine guy.
Kimmel is very un-funny.
Boy, are you on the wrong forum!
Jimmy Kimmell is a horse’s a**. He isn’t funny in the least, nor is he likeable in the least. When I think of “economic injustice,” of people making way more than they deserve, he comes instantly to mind. If I was part of a revolution, he’d be one of the first up against the wall.
Now he’s trying to joke about it. Narrative is turning.
Celebrities are the biggest hypocrites. There is this former WWE wrestler(Nia Jax) she wrote on twitter last week that she knows for a fact that many sports stars and celebrities what they do is they pay off their doc to give them a vaccination card that shows they got the vaccine..its a very common practice
Who watches the Oscars anymore?
I have a plan—to outlive all the pro-vaxxers...and my doctors!
Started in Ben Stein
“Says the saline vaccine guy”
And I suspect there’s a whole hell of a lot of that, that went on.
Why do you say saline vaccine?
WGAF about little Jimmy Kimmel? Or the Oscars for that matter?
