Cate Blanchett is reminiscing about the good old days when Hollywood award shows weren\u2019t televised, and celebrities could actually enjoy a moment of privacy.<\/p>\n
During an appearance on Las Culturistas With Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang<\/em>, the Ocean\u2019s 8<\/em> actress expressed her desire for the Oscars to return to a time before cameras broadcasted every moment. According to Blanchett, in today\u2019s world, where phones capture everything, true privacy is almost nonexistent.<\/p>\n Reflecting on her favorite era, she shared that the \u201880s\u2014especially the Mardi Gras parties in Sydney\u2014held a special place in her heart. \u201cThey were so present, you know, they were just together, collectively, having a great time. It was nonaggressive. No one was being recorded. No one cared what anyone did,\u201d<\/em> she recalled.<\/p>\n The actress was shocked to learn about a viral TikTok trend where people attempt to decipher celebrity conversations from awards show footage. Hosts Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang explained that some fans have even managed to accurately lip-read private discussions.<\/p>\n Yang described this trend as making Hollywood events feel \u201ctreacherous,\u201d<\/em> a sentiment Blanchett agreed with. She acknowledged that the entertainment industry currently feels both fragmented and overwhelming.<\/p>\n However, despite the challenges, Blanchett believes that now more than ever, industry professionals should focus on celebrating their work and the art they create together.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Cate Blanchett is reminiscing about the good old days when Hollywood award shows weren\u2019t televised, and celebrities could actually enjoy\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":294,"featured_media":64168,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[6749],"class_list":["post-64167","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-celebrity-news","tag-cate-blanchett"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64167","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/294"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=64167"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64167\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/64168"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=64167"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=64167"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=64167"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
