ANDREW DICE CLAY IS SPREADING A RUMOR ABOUT HIMSELF

And it’s a doozy. Clay planted the idea that he just MIGHT be nominated for an Oscar for his role in Woody Allen’s Blue Jasmine. The movie is enjoying decent reviews (we loved it!) and excellent boxoffice. It has been described as a take-of on “A Streetcar Named Desire“ since Cate Blanchett’s character shares many characteristics with the tragic Blanche Dubois. Of course that comparison DELIGHTED Clay because that means HIS beer swilling working class character is reminiscent of Marlon Brando. Since Cate is likely to earn a nomination for her role, Clay figured “Why not me too?” Actually Clay was well cast as a more subtle version of himself, but his acting wasn’t all THAT. Still, he has high hopes!
