Denzel Washington Explains Why He’s ‘Not Interested In Oscars’: ‘Man Gives The Award, God Gives The Reward’
Denzel Washington doesn’t care about awards.
Speaking to Jake’s Takes during his press tour for Highest 2 Lowest, Washington, who has nine Academy Award nominations and two wins, said, “I don’t do it for Oscars. I don’t care about that kind of stuff. I’ve been at this a long time, and there’s time when I won and shouldn’t have won and then didn’t win and should’ve won. Man gives the award. God gives the reward.”
He added, “I’m not that interested in Oscars. People ask me, ‘Where do I keep it?’ Well, next to the other one. I’m not bragging! Just telling you how I feel about it. On my last day, [Oscars] aren’t going to do me a bit of good.”
