This year, just like every year beforehand, the presenters’ bits at the Oscars were bigger bombs than Snow White, Kiss of the Spider Woman, and Tron: Ares combined. Can we please move on from Bridesmaids already? That movie sucked and was not funny.
However, there was one funny presenter duo, and that was Robert Downey, Jr. and Chris Evans. Iron Man and Captain America were there to celebrate The Avengers 14th Anniversary, and the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday, which comes out on December 18th.
Evans brought RDJ a signed script from the superhero movie as a present, but the latter forgot to get him something. However, with some quick thinking and Tony Stark money, he was able to get his hands on the thong that Channing Tatum wore in Magic Mike.
I am not sure if he got ripped off by one of those vendors on Hollywood Blvd that say they are selling you the real thing, but they are really selling you a knock-off. I mean, why else would the Oscar winner call it “The official Tanning Chatum Magic Mike Thong.”
Who is Tanning Chatum? I know Channing Tatum, but not Tanning Chatum.
It could be because Magic Mike lost his magic, and Hollywood can’t ever remember his name. Irene Cara’s song Fame lied to him. Back to Tanning. I hope he got his costume back before he hit the pole at some gross male strip club in North Hollywood.
Seriously, even with that blunder, that whole interaction struck Oscar gold.
