The Oscar losers don’t go home empty-handed, you know, thanks to their annual gift bag. How about $85,000 worth of gifts (double last year’s) to heal the wound of an Oscar snub? The bag (which must actually be a steamer trunk) contains everything from gift cards for luxury overseas holidays (Lupita, you need a rest, girl) a $16,000 hair transplant (paging Mr. Travolta) a vaginal rejuvenation procedure (Goldie?) and his ‘n’ hers pepper spray guns (Brad & Angie – for the paps) And with few exceptions, (Dallas Buyer’s Club make-up team!) nearly every recipient, is likely a millionaire already, so they can afford any of this junk they might want – but which of the stars you saw last night would be caught dead with this $279 Jitseu purse? So, overworked assistants of Hollywood, here comes 70 bucks worth of “candles that double as perfume and warm massage oil” and $38.96 worth of “Hydroxycut weight loss gummies, protein bars, and shakes.”
