This is what will be inside this year’s Oscar’s goodie bag
Words: Alex Woodhall
Taking home arguably the highest accolade in film is not enough for the winners at this year’s Academy Awards. For those who bag a gong, the gold statuette will be accompanied by a goodie bag so valuable it eclipses the average UK salary more than fivefold. Whilst your average gift of thanks from an event may be a small box of luxurious chocolate or modicum of awfully pungent perfume, this year’s Oscar winners will get much weightier prizes, prizes to the tune of £150,000. Leo must really be hoping this is his year now:
Luxury Swiss toilet paper: £200
Because triple-ply just won’t do…
Cosmetic surgery: £1,900
Winners will get a free “Vampire Breast Lift”, that is, using patient’s blood to make cleavage more rounder. Not sure if this is just for female winners, or whether Leo is planning to really nail that Dad bod look.
Two-week walking trip in Japan: £31,000
A much deserved break after a long year of filming and a night taking in champagne, acceptance speeches and h’ordeuvres.
Car rentals: £40,000
Better than an Uber.
Skin-tightening facial
What better way to recover from the Oscar’s afterparty? Winning stars will be in high demand for media appearances after all.
Personal training sessions
Time to get in shape for that next role.
Adult toys
An odd gift, information is so far vague on this one, which we’re kind of glad for.
e-cig vaporiser
Leo’s vaping escapades at the SAG Awards have caused plenty of talk and evidently it’s a trend the Academy are taking note of.
