VIDEO : George Clooney Speaks Out On Oscars Lack Of Diversity

Mega-star George Clooney is the latest celebrity to criticize the Oscar's lack of diversity. On Monday Jada Pinkett Smith and Spike Lee announced that they would be boycotting the Oscars, and now more stars are joining the conversation. Clooney told Variety that "we're moving in the wrong direction" when discussing the Oscars. The Academy seems to be moving backwards from 2004, when actors like Don Cheadle and Morgan Freeman were nominated for awards. He then name-checked several movies he thought were Oscar-worthy. Academy president Cheryl Boone Isaacs said she was "heartbroken" that people of color were excluded from this year's nominations.
