6. George Clooney
Everyone was eager to know what A-list actor, George Clooney, had to say about #OscarsSoWhite. He got to speak with Variety in an interview about the trending topic. “I don’t think it’s a problem of who you’re picking as much as it is: how many options are available to minorities in film, particularly in quality films?” he said in the interview. “I think that African Americans have a real fair point that the industry isn’t representing them well enough. I think that’s absolutely true. There should be 20 or 30 or 40 films of the quality that people would consider for the Oscars. By the way, we’re talking about African Americans. For Hispanics, it’s even worse. We need to get better at this. We used to be better at it.”
