> I have no interest in what Hollywood stars are wearing, or which movie/actor is considered the best by some people I don't even know. It did occur to me, this year, that if they changed the names of the awards from "Best" to "Most Popular", 95% of each year's controversy would go away. Of course, that makes it sound like the award would be based on statistics, so maybe not.

For years now, the only award that offically has the word "Best" in it is "Best Picture". All the others are just the category names (Actor, Actress in a Supporting Role, Makeup, et al.).

The only people who call the award for Actor "Best Actor" are us, the commoners.
