Sometimes an Academy Award<\/a> goes straight from the stage to somewhere even more glamorous: The bathroom.<\/p>\n As is the case for Emma Thompson<\/a><\/strong>, who won an Oscar for Best Actress in 1992 for Howards End<\/em> and another three years later for helping write the screenplay for Sense and Sensibility<\/em>.<\/p>\n But despite the status the trophies hold, keeping them in her restroom seemed like a very natural choice.<\/p>\n “They look far too outr\u00e9 anywhere else,” she told Time<\/em> in 2006<\/a>. “They’re great big, gold, shiny things. They’re up there tarnishing quietly along with everything else I own, including my body. It does give people the opportunity to pick them up and play with them in privacy rather than having to say, ‘Can I hold that?'”<\/p>\n As she noted, “You’d have to come to my house. There’s no posh space. Every space is kind of a family space. I’m surprised my daughter hasn’t used them for nefarious purposes actually. They’re heavy.”<\/p>\n So when her Last Christmas<\/em> costar\u00a0Henry Golding<\/strong><\/a> discovered\u00a0the heavy metal, he just rolled with it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
