Penelope Cruz Wants Her Damned Oscar

This past Sunday Penelope Cruz picked up a Goya award (see above video), her country’s version of the Oscars for her performance in Woody Allen’s Vicky, Cristina, Barcelona. While most people are pleased to just be nominated, la Pe told Liz Smith she wants more than that:

I congratulate Penélope again on her nomination. I ask, because it’s the tiresome but necessary question, if it really matters to her if she wins. “Hmmm … what can I say? It’s not a lie that it is an honor to be nominated, and if I don’t win, I won’t be any less honored, but … look, ask anyone who is nominated. No matter what you think you feel about awards, when you’re there, sitting in that seat, with those people, all dressed up — of course you want to win!”

At least she’s honest! I personally don’t think she’ll win (though I thought her performance was fabulous)…too much stiff competition in that category.

P.S. What is up with the intro to that video?
