Robert Downey Jr., in a display of self-deprecating humor, turned the tables at the Critics Choice Awards by reading some of his harshest reviews during his acceptance speech. The celebrated actor, who clinched the Best Supporting Actor award for his role in Oppenheimer, chose to highlight the less flattering aspects of his career. He shared critiques ranging from being described as “sloppy, messy, and lazy” to more colorful comparisons like “Pee-Wee Herman emerging from a coma”.
Downey Jr. didn’t shy away from quoting a British critic who labeled his work as “a puzzling waste of talent”, and even ended on a note that likened his acting to being “as amusing as a bed-locked fart”. This unconventional approach not only showcased Downey Jr.'s ability to laugh at himself but also highlighted the often overlooked human side of celebrities in the face of criticism.
