Deppheads, do you want to go to the Oscars this year?
We all remember Johnny Depp’s marvelous appearance at the Oscar ceremony last year. While it’s too soon to know if he will receive a nomination for FINDING NEVERLAND, many critics are already placing him on the short list of likely nominees for his portrayal of J. M. Barrie. If you would like to be one of the lucky few watching the stars stroll down the red carpet in front of the Kodak Theater on Sunday, February 27, 2005–here’s your chance!
The official Oscar website is offering fans a chance to win seats in the bleachers to watch the red carpet arrivals. Please note–this is only to watch the stars arrive; it does not give admission to the ceremony. But it’s free! You can register from 1-4 people on a single entry form, and winners will be chosen by random drawing. Odds of winning depend on the number of entries received. You must be at least 18 years old to register; however, minors can attend if accompanied by a parent or guardian (no one under age 5 is admitted). Zoners under 18 should try to persuade an older relative to enter and list them in the party, or ask to be attached to another Zoner’s entry form. Please note–the entry form asks for your drivers’ license number, so you might want to have that handy. If you are selected, you will be asked to supply a social security number for a background check (for security purposes). The contest ends at noon Pacific time on September 27, 2004, so get your entries in right away. Only one entry per individual or group–duplicates will be discarded. You can find the registration form here.
The Zone thanks MommaDeppLover for breaking this story. Good luck, everyone–we hope to see you in the bleachers on Oscar day!
