Twitter is home to a lot of ridiculous opinions, but the latest trend involving Sandra Bullock might be the app’s worst … users are calling for her to lose her Oscar on the heels of “The Blind Side” controversy.
It’s about as crazy as it sounds, especially since there’s zero evidence Bullock — who played Leigh Anne Tuohy in the movie — had any clue of the drama behind the scenes with Michael Oher and the Tuohy family.
One user wrote, “So Sandra Bullock should have to give back her Oscar right, and man do we need to start checking these good feeling stories. The parents blocked $300 in earnings the movie from him getting any of it and gave the money to their real children? WOOOOOOOW!”
Another says, “If the Michael Oher allegations are true then we have to go AND TAKE THE OSCAR back from Sandra Bullock and give it to Gabourey Sidibe for ‘Precious'” and “Sandra Bullock should give her Oscar back. She knows she didn’t deserve that s***.”
However, there’s also people coming to her defense, writing, “Not y’all calling for Sandra Bullock’s Oscar to be revoked. It ain’t her fault the real life people were exploitative scammers and thieves,” and “You know Sandra Bullock deserved her Oscar because she acted so well, she made the Tuohy family likeable.”
As we reported, the former NFL star claims the Tuohy family never adopted him — as the movie suggests — but he was instead placed under a conservatorship. Oher claims the family made a ton of cash off his life story in “The Blind Side,” while he got nothing.
Sean Tuohy is calling BS on Oher, saying the family’s only option to legally make him part of their family was a conservatorship — as he was over 18 — and each family member made about $14,000 from the movie … including Oher.
