Here’s what’s inside the gift bag that presenters at Oscars 2017 will get

Paul Moore

We’ve all heard stories about how actors struggle to make ends meet at the early stages of their careers.

Like any other profession, every single actor will have to pay their dues before they receive their big break, but in one of the most painful contradictions of celebrity culture, mega-rich actors will always be given free stuff.

Lots and lots of free stuff. We’re not jealous at all.

The list of presenters at this year’s Oscars is a veritable who’s who of the rich and famous – Amy Adams, The Rock, Emma Stone, Samuel L. Jackson, Scarlett Johansson and many more will be featuring – and while some of these Hollywood stars won’t be going home with an actual Oscar, they will receive goodie bag that’s worth $260,000 to bring back to their mansions.

Christ, all that for reading an autocue.

Yeah, yeah.

We know that they’re all supremely talented, put in years of hard work and endure constant scrutiny into their private lives, but look at all this free stuff.

Then again, if any of this year’s presenters are as funny as Jack Black, Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly were in 2008 , they deserve every one of these lavish items that Teen Vogue have reported.
