Melissa Leo is now an Academy Award winner. But that's not her only distinction. Leo is also the first Oscar winner to drop an f-bomb in her Academy Award acceptance speech. "When I watched Kate two years ago, it looked so effin' easy. Oops."
She quickly apologized backstage at the press room. "I apologize to anyone that was offended," she said. "It was probably a very inappropriate place to
use that word in particular."
It was understandable. Melissa Leo was genuinely stunned with her win. Sure, she was the front runner after winning so many of the previous awards. But her personal campaign for an Oscar raised a lot of eyebrows in Hollywood and there were talks that Oscar voters were turned off by the move. Many said she just lost the Oscar with that campaign. Fortunately, they were wrong.
