Oscar And Grumpy

[Blind Gossip] This classic, Oscar-winning actress was at the Academy Awards. She may not have walked away with an award last night… but her husband did!

He definitely gets the award for Most Bored Date!

We were right next to them on the way out. She was smiling, but he looked grumpy. She looked at him and said, “Are you OK?” and he said, “I’m just glad that’s over.” She said, “It wasn’t THAT bad!” He looked at her and just stared at her for a few seconds. It was funny. She gave him a little elbow in the side and said, “Oh, behave!”

    Meryl Streep and her husband
    He looked bored throughout and I can’t say I blame him. He’s been to so many of these by now that it must get old

    No idea on the actress and her grumpy husband.
    I did not watch the Oscars as there are too many Best Picture nominations-how do you cheer for an actor, actress or picture you didn’t have time to see? And the continuous put-down of conservative Americans is becoming a drag.

    Meryl Streep’s hubby was acting like a bored grouch every time the camera was in their direction.
    I’ll give it a 7 – I actually liked the show better than last year’s. The speeches are too boring, especially when it’s the unknown winners who pull out a large piece of paper and drone on and on, thanking everyone they ever met.
    I did like the jet ski thing and the visit to the theatre next door.

    So easy. This was definitely Meryl Streep and her husband, Don Gummer. I noticed him several times in the audience. He looked like a jerk. He never smiled, never laughed.

    Mr Streep. How many award shows has he had to sit through over the years? No wonder he is fed up.

  16. annabelle77 says

    Meryl Streep and her husband Don. Married forever, and he looked a little bored at the show.

  17. boyjack4 says

    Meryl Streep
    Don Gummer looked bored and grumpy all night
    Thought it was an 8/10
    Not too political but quite fun

    Actress: Frances McDormand
    Husband: Joel Coen

    The whole time he looked like he couldn’t be bothered & totally bored — even when she thanked him from the stage.

    Jealousy at not being currently relevant?

  23. modelle18 says

    I’m going to guess Meryl Streep and her husband

    He looked genuinely bored and annoyed at all the fawning over her whenever the cameras were on them

  24. ivy3499 says

    Meryl Streep & Don Gummer. Imagine living a life in which you’ve been to the Oscars so many times that you’re bored!

  29. bcg0716 says

    Gummer and Streep. I can’t blame him really. I’m sure after 30 years it’s boring

  30. Tallie says

    Meryl, “give standing ovation for Polanski” Streep and her long suffering husband.

  36. CapnZebbie says

    Meryl Streep and her incredibly grumpy husband who really should be happier because he’s married to Meryl Streep.

    Optional: 7
    Favorite parts — Kumail and Lupita — Tiffany and Maya — Frances McDormand’s speech.

  39. mango says

    Meryl Streep! Her husband looked either bored or annoyed every time they cut to her.

  41. cantbearsed says

    Meryl Streep’s husband.

    I don’t think he goes under duress, they’ve probably had the same conversation for the last twenty years. ‘Oh no, not another one.’ He knows he’s contributed to the success of his wife (as well as having his own successful career), probably just banter between people who have been married for 40 years.

  42. GeeGee says

    This one is easy! Meryl Streep and her husband. When the camera would pan to them, he always looked like he was bored out of his mind!

  43. LizzieBennet says

    Actress: Meryl Streep.

    The show felt interminable. I thought it was a shame they didn’t include the honorary Oscar to Donald Sutherland in the main ceremony, but handed it to him at the technical awards one which takes place days/weeks before the Oscars. Personally, I find Jimmy Kimmel rather boring as a host.

  46. Delightful says

    Meryl Streep and Don Gummer. He’s been going to these things with her for DECADES, he must be sofa king over it. He always shows up though, he’s a stand-up guy. If he gets a little grumpy at the end of the night, I can’t blame him. I’ll bet they had more fun at these in the ’70s.

  47. shelaur22 says

    Meryl and Don. I agree with him. The ratings for this show (and last year’s) were all-time lows. The show just isn’t fun (or funny) anymore. Bring back Ellen or Neil Patrick Harris and get rid of the * obsessed with Matt Damon.

  52. cordtx says

    Meryl Streep , her husband rolled his eyes several times when the camera where on them

  54. Brunettetalk says

    Meryl Streep and her date.

    Rate the show: Negative 10. Boring, preachy, too many self congratulations and the movies sucked. A sea monster and a mute. A pdephiliac teacher. A sadist mom. What ever happened to nice friendly uplifting movies?

  56. BeeBeeDee says

    Meryl Streep and Don Gummer. One of their daughters even made a joke about how much he dislikes the Oscars.

  57. Carigirl says

    Meryl Streep’s husband? It was fine. I’ve seen better shows and I’ve seen worst.

  59. surfsunsand says

    Actress: Meryl Streep – and her husband deserves an award! He’s been her date to these awards for 40 years.

  61. mozartkugeln says

    Actress: Meryl Streep

    I honestly thought this was one of the most boring Oscar nights I have ever seen. Nothing remotely interesting or controversial happened, it was all so sterile.

  62. crazycatlady says

    Meryl Streep — her husband looked like he was over it all, especially when Frances McDormand had all the women winners stand up.
    The ceremony is always a little boring in the middle, but this one was one of the worst. Best part for me was Maya Rudolph and Tiffany Haddish. They should host next year.

  64. slimfast10 says

    The always bored and annoyed looking Don Gummer, year after year after year,
    sourpuss , Meryl should just leave him home and bring one of her daughters next time. It’s painful and embarrassing to watch..

  66. MantisTobogganMD says

    Meryl Streep and her husband.

    Clue: his face when JLaw and Jodie foster were making their Streep jokes.

  69. suzyQ888 says

    Honestly I can’t blame him. I’m totally bored or Meryl Oscar hype year after year (despite her being a great actress), so I can imagine how her husband feels. It’s just nothing special at this point.
