The Oscar Chaser

[Blind Gossip] This actor was in one of the films nominated for Best Picture. His date for The Academy Awards was not too happy with him last night.

She didn’t have any say about with whom he presented. However, she was upset when he seemed to run after that same actress when that actress was leaving the room!

According to a seat filler, his date was complaining about him “chasing” the actress and was in a bad mood the entire time he was gone.

He does tend to be flirty, but was he really running after the actress… or was he just trying to score a few extra minutes of camera time last night?

Everyone in this scenario is married, but if our actor was to hook up with our actress, they would certainly be the best looking couple in Hollywood!

  1. Armie Hammer and Margot Robbie? Armie is SO THIRSTY, someone please pass him a Gatorade.

  4. Armie Hammer
    Gal Gadot

    I believe he was just having some fun. Scoring some extra camera time and mentions also. But I don’t believe Elizabeth aka his wife was truly upset about that – she knows him too well. But they do have sick kids at home and he wasn’t in his best health atm, so that could’ve dumpened her mood

  6. Actor: Armie Hammer

    Actress He Was Chasing: Margot Robbie

    [Optional] Chasing camera time probably

  11. Armie Hammer jumped up to join Gal Gadot when Jimmy led that group to meet fans. I think he was just trying to get camera time since he was left out of the noms for best supporting.

  12. Definitely Armie Hammer chasing after Gal Gadot, whom he presented an Oscar with! They would make some purty babies!!

  13. Actor: Armie Hammer

    Actress He Was Chasing: Gal Godot

    [Optional] Chasing the actress or chasing camera time? Camera time, sis!

    [Optional] Chasing the actress or chasing camera time?: Camera time – he seems genuinely infatuated with his wife

    • A seat filler is when say an actor goes to a restroom, a person (usually a college student) takes the seat until he/she comes back

    • A seat filler is an everyday person (quite often office workers at a studio) who take the seat of any celebrities who get up to present or when they win and go backstage for interviews for the purpose of “filling” the seat so when the camera pans to the audience there are no open spaces and it looks like a full theatre.

    • The hired extras who sit in a person’s seat while they are presenting or using the bathroom. Prevents gaps in the audience.

    • Reeeaally lucky people who sit temporarily on the seats of the actresses/actors/people of the industry who have to leave their seat in order to go on the stage.
      They fill the seats so the theatre doesn’t look empty. And I hear they get 150 bucks for that. For sitting among Hollywood legends. WHERE CAN I APPLY?!???!

    • When people are announcing an award or getting one, or just leave their seat for any reason, a dressed-up “seat filler” sits in their seat so there aren’t empty seats showing in the audience. I had a friend who did it once and she had the time of her life.

  23. Armie Hammer and Gal Gadot. They would definitely be the best-looking couple in all of Hollywood.

  31. Armie Hammer (wife, Elizabeth Chambers) and Gal Gadot.. He’s a big kid and it sounded like fun. He knows Kimmel and volunteered. No story here. The guy obviously adores his wife!

  35. Actor: Armie Hammer
    Actress He Was Chasing: Gal Gadot
    Chasing the actress or chasing camera time? Probably both

  38. Actor: Armie Hammer
    Actress: Gal Gadot

    Optional: I’m sure she wasn’t interested in him. Then, it must be extra camera time he was after. Still trying to get over his disappointment for not being nominated.

  41. Actor: Armie Hammer

    Actress He Was Chasing: Gal Gadot

    [Optional] Chasing the actress or chasing camera time? Camera time. His wife is GORGEOUS.

  44. Actor : Armie Hammer
    Actress He Was Chasing : Gal Gadot
    They presented together last night, they are both married and the hint about him not getting a nomination was about him. I can imagine the wife in this story being Armie’s wife Elizabeth, she seems quite clingy/loves the attention (not saying what he may have done in this scenario is right).
    Optional : Not sure.

  48. My mind immediately went to Armie Hammer/Gal Gadot . . . but was his wife with him?

  52. Actor: Armie Hammer

    Actress He Was Chasing: Gal Gadot

    [Optional] Chasing the actress or chasing camera time? Probably chasing camera time!!

  53. Armie Hammer lept out of his seat to participate in Jimmy Kimmel’s surprise a theater of real people skit as soon as Margot Robbie got up to participate.

  60. Definitely, Armie Hammer jumping up for the Chinese Theater excursion after Gal Gadot volunteered. He is pretty thirsty either way.

  62. Actor: Armie Hammer

    Actress He Was Chasing: Gal Gadot

    [Optional] Chasing the actress or chasing camera time? Both

  63. Armie H. and Gal G. Hard to say what his motive was….she is hot right now and I could see them making a superhero pic together. So maybe it was business.

  64. This is Armie Hammer. He ran after the group heading towards the cinema and caught up with Gal Gadot who happened to be at the back of the pack. He was Chasing camera time/good guy points for sure though, he just smiled and was friendly to her as they’d just presented together. Definitely innocent. He wasn’t trying to be close to her when they were in the cinema so it wasn’t anything more than that.

  66. Actor: Armie Hammer

    Actress He Was Chasing: Gal Gadot

    Chasing camera time. If he was hitting with her, I think it would not be that obvious.

  67. Armie Hammer
    Gal Gadot
    He was staring at her non stop during their presentation and when Gal was going to the theater across the street he immediately jumped at the chance

  73. Without question, Armie Hammer and gorgeous Gal Gadot.
    He was obviously enjoying VERY MUCH talking to her.
    And he ran after her when Jimmy called the celebrities to go say thanks to the public.

    Gal won’t be hooking up with him.

  78. Armie Hammer and Gal Godot. Both gorgeous, and he was grumpy because he wasn’t nominated.

  79. Armie Hammer and Gal Gadot! I’d chase her too- just to look. I think he wanted to enjoy his time doing the Oscar thing with a pretty lady and get more screen time.

  81. Armie Hammer and Gal Gadot.

    Chasing camera time! It was so obvious when he bolted to be on camera one more time. He was being pissy for not getting an Oscar nom

  82. The person was most likely one of the actors/actresses/director that went to the theater across the street?

    First to mind was Ansel Elgort … but his movie wasn’t up for Best Picture.

    Mark Hamill did race after Gal Gadot and introduced himself. They both presented, but no Best Picture …

    This would be a shady Armie Hammer move, but I don’t think he presented ….?

    I give up!

  85. Armie Hammer and Gal Gadot? They presented together and they are both gorgeous. His movie was nominated but he wasn’t. I’m sure he was chasing screen time, he seems to crave it.

  86. Armie Hammer – last minute joining the group going to the theatre. Running after Margot Robbie who joined right before.

    I’m going to try and give the benefit of the doubt, it looked like a lot of fun! Camera time but also a thrill.

  87. Armie Hammer and Gal Gadot. They also got up for that theater stunt Kimmel pulled.

  90. Gal Gadot and Arnie Hammer.
    I think he was chasing both! There was definitely some strange chemistry going on there.

  93. Actor: Armie Hammer

    Actress he was chasing: Gal Gadot.

    I reckon he was chasing camera time.

  94. I feel like this is Arnie Hammer and Margot Robbie.

    I don’t think anything will come of it, he was just caught up in the emotion of it all.

    • Or Gal Gadot?

      Still think he was enjoying the night… a bit rude to his wife but I can understand that he’d wanted to speak to fellow actors, especially to remark about a film he liked. I don’t think he’s dumb enough to try anything on at a cameraised event when his wife was there.
