Actor Samuel L Jackson is facing plenty of criticism after stating he did not feel happy or honored to be getting a nomination for the Oscars.
The star who just turned 75 says getting the nominations is not an honor for him. The only way he can feel wanted to be honored is if they give him the actual award.
The star took on a very fresh and bold perspective that left some people stunned in terms of what was taking place here.
The star began mincing his words when sharing his thoughts about the famous gong, adding how nominations don’t mean a thing to him.
Some fans were stunned by his remarks while others felt he needed to have a piece of humble pie.
Being 75 and still being recognized for your talent is major news, another explained.
Jackson says that he’s been in the industry for far too long to have those butterflies in his tummy. Now, it’s about winning and if he does not win, he does not want that nomination.
The star’s unique views have caused controversy on social media ever since his statements from the clip were published online. What do you think?
