'Sinners' Actress Says She Can't Enjoy Her Oscar Nomination. Guess Why.

The Oscars are scheduled for March 15, and we have a good idea of how it will go. The Grammys and the Golden Globes were both giant anti-ICE rallies, with celebrities giving anti-ICE speeches and wearing pins honoring Renee Good. We expect more of the same at the Academy Awards now, because at least one nominee is saying she's unable to enjoy this honor because of the aforementioned Renee Good and Alex Pretti.

Here's more:

Sinners” star Wunmi Mosaku recently told The Sunday Times that she hasn’t been able to enjoy her recent Oscar nomination for best supporting actress because of the deaths of Alex Pretti and Renée Good, two American citizens who were shot and killed by federal agents in Minnesota.

“I’ve not been able to celebrate because of what’s going on right now, with the killings of Renée Good and Alex Pretti by ICE agents in Minnesota and the kidnapping of a five-year-old boy,” Mosaku said. “It’s difficult to hold both the nomination and the news because one feels beautiful and one is so dark and heavy; truly dystopian — how can I possibly go out and buy some drinks and enjoy the moment?”


She added, “[My husband] is not as shocked as I am at the news. There’s a very strange American psyche where terrible things happen and people still can go to work the next day, whereas I’m floored for a week and think, ‘How are people going to crowded places when this has just happened?’ I want a cocoon. My reaction reminds him that this is not normal.”

No, it's not normal that Democrats have encouraged their Leftist base to obstruct, interfere, and "put their bodies on the line" to hamper the work ICE is doing. And it's not normal to lie about it, either. ICE did not "kidnap" a five-year-old boy. They kept him safe when his father abandoned him.

But it's typical of a Hollywood celebrity to go out there and make this all about her.

That's (D)ifferent.

That's "not normal" either, but Mosaku didn't seem bothered by those deaths.

She'll say that's just part of living in a diverse society, or something.

So stunning. So brave.

We bet her acceptance speech, should she win, will be fascinating.

Celebrities have no idea what the real world is like.
