Keira Knightley disappointed by Jack Nicholson's snub at Oscars

[MaryJane]

Oscar-nominee KEIRA KNIGHTLEY was devastated she didn't turn JACK NICHOLSON's head at the Academy Awards, despite her glamorous VERA WANG dress and newly dyed strawberry blonde locks.

Nicholson, famed for his womanising ways, sat next the 20-year-old during the ceremony but failed to live up to his reputation by largely ignoring the starlet.
And Knightley admits the snub made her feel extremely self-conscious.

Speaking outside the post-Oscars Vanity Fair party she said, "Eveyone's been asking if Jack made a pass at me. He didn't at all and now I'm getting a bit paranoid. Why didn't he make a pass at me?"

Knightley lost out in the Best Actress category to WALK THE LINE star REESE WITHERSPOON.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...gutted is all I have to say about that!

Where is this child-woman's minder? Shouldn't someone stick around to make sure she stops speaking in public and making an ass out of herself?

He did look a bit like a man sitting next to a person who smelled. I think I saw him shoot her a "good luck kid" pseudo-smile right as her name was announced though.

"Oh my god, my entire sense of self worth depends on whether some wheezy fatbag wants to pound my vag at the Oscars!"

Is this kid serious? If so, then she's perfect proof that as long as you're loaded and/or have status, it doesn't matter how old, fat, bald and fugly you are but there will always be those types willing to pimp themselves for possible profit - be it financially or attention/status wise.

I'm glad Nicholson managed to control himself. After all, he was there with his kids who are quite close in age to Ms. Knightley.

^^ My husband actually thought she was one of his kids. LOL!

"Eveyone's been asking if Jack made a pass at me. He didn't at all and now I'm getting a bit paranoid. Why didn't he make a pass at me?" Gotta be sarcasm. Gotta be. Anything else is just gross.

She's too old for him!


And she looked like shit--maybe that had something to do with it?? The guys got standards!

[muchlove]

I thought it was a little odd... he was sitting turned away from her the entire time. The body language was definitely of the "you smell" variety.

how could they have sat her dumbass next Jack, King of Hollywood !?!

[Luna]

It's like he's King Kong and she's Fay Ray, only Kong didn't want her.

He probably knew he was being set up for rumors to be started so he made sure he avoided her.

She looked unhappy and uncomfortable.

on word - muhahahahaha!!

personally sitting next to that slime ball i'd be relieved i got away with it all night. Why the hell would you want to wish that upon yourself?

[loulou58]

i dont know of him personally cos i dont follow him in the media, but thats the srt of image he portrays to me sorry! plus im thinking thats how Keira wanted him to be on Oscar night

[miss_perfect]

He also had his children with him - I'm sure drooling over someone not much older than them was not an option. He can seem a little lecherous sometimes but I don't doubt for a second that he's a classy guy.
