A marketing company decided to give the nominees for acting and directing awards in the 92nd Academy Awards (Oscars) various gifts worth nearly $ 150,000.
According to "Fox News", each of the nominees for Best Actor and Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Director got a gift bag containing products valued at $ 148,000, and its contents varied between tourist trips to marijuana products.
Marketing "Distinctive Assets" decided to give gifts to the 24 nominees, a week before the Oscars awards ceremony, which took place in Los Angeles at dawn today.
Among the strangest gifts celebrities are expected to have received: up to $25,000 of treatments and rejuvenation procedures with Dr. Konstantin Vasyukevich in New York City, as well as custom-designed bullet-resistant doors from Remo Security Doors and a 24-karat gold-finished vape pen are also included in the haul.
Other items in the prize package include a unique, guided cannabis-infused chocolate tasting experience for eight adults (ages 21 and up) and year of membership with British matchmaking agency Drawing Down the Moon, which includes “coaching, headhunting, and introductions to our other highly eligible members.”
“Every human being, regardless of wealth or fame, appreciates the simple joy of a gift. While our ‘Everyone Wins’ Gift Bag is certainly not given based on need, it is assembled with a profound sense of gratitude for the incredible performances these talented inpiduals shared with all of us this year,” Lash Fary, founder of Distinctive Assets, said in a statement shared with Fox News.
A spokesperson for the marketing company confirmed to Fox News that this year’s bonanza includes a 12-day trip on the Scenic Eclipse luxury yacht; accommodations at the Faro Cumplida lighthouse in Spain, the Auberge resorts in Los Cabos, Mexico, and the Waikiki Beachcomber in Honolulu; plus a wellness weekend at the 3d Wellness Retreat in Malibu, Calif. Nominees are also welcomed to visit the Golden Door and Origin Stretch and Spa spas in California.
The bag also contained alcoholic drinks and other gifts.
This year, lucky stars including Scarlett Johansson, Antonio Banderas, Cynthia Erivo, Adam Driver, Charlize Theron, Joaquin Phoenix, Renee Zellweger, Tom Hanks, Laura Dern, Brad Pitt, Margot Robbie, Al Pacino, Kathy Bates, Saoirse Ronan and Leonardo DiCaprio will receive the luxury haul, known as the “Everyone Wins” gift bag.
