In the world of Hollywood, the Academy Awards, or Oscars, are the most prestigious awards a person can receive. Unfortunately, there are some celebrities and filmmakers who have been blacklisted from the Oscars due to their past actions.
Harvey Weinstein is one of the most notable names on the list. Weinstein was expelled from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in 2018 after multiple women accused him of sexual assault and harassment.
Roman Polanski is another celebrity who has been blacklisted from the Oscars. Polanski was expelled from the Academy in 2018 after he was accused of sexual assault and rape in 1977.

Carmine Caridi is the last celebrity on the list. Caridi was expelled from the Academy in 2004 after he was accused of sharing copies of films that were being considered for the Oscars.
Although these celebrities have been blacklisted from the Oscars, they are still able to attend other events in Hollywood. However, they will not be able to receive an Oscar or be nominated for one.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is dedicated to upholding the highest standards of excellence in the film industry. As such, it is important for them to take a stand against any celebrities or filmmakers who have been accused of criminal or unethical behavior.
