Dear Readers,

On behalf of The Onion, I offer my personal apology to Quvenzhané Wallis and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for the tweet that was circulated last night during the Oscars. It was crude and offensive—not to mention inconsistent with The…

Does this make up for calling a 9-year-old actress the c-word?

Sorry y’all. I saw Beasts of the Southern Wild, and I’m pretty sure we all know that shes nine and awesome and cute and hilarious and everything. we’re attacking a joke that really compliments that fact. this joke is funny not because its true, but because its so absurd… like. calm the fuck down.

ps. now im excited about this mythical annie remake. She’ll be awesome. I don’t care if she can’t sing. she can… be cute and southern. She’ll be better then Willow Smith.
