15 Showbiz Trivia Tidbits That Totally Slap

Awards shows are weird; there's no way around that. It doesn't matter if it's movies, Broadway, sports, or Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence. 

The idea of gathering a bunch of people in uncomfortable clothes, plopping them in uncomfortable seats in an uncomfortably hot room while they're all bouncing back and forth between happy, sad, and hangery is a simmering pot waiting to boil over at any point. And that's before large amounts of booze and/or drugs get involved. Also, not to mention the months of drama leading up to the shows and weird bs politicking behind the scenes. It's honestly amazing that most of these don't end up looking middle section of a WWE Royal Rumble match. Aaaaand sometimes they do. (Give us Will Smith v. Chris Rock at Wrestlemania, you cowards.)

With that in mind, here is a collection of facts with a specific theme that you can open the envelope on and drop in your noggin.
