Alert: one of the funniest men on this planet just scored an Academy Award nomination. That's right, Steve Carell is nominated for an Oscar for his role in Foxcatcher. Did you ever think the day would come when we'd see Carell at the award ceremony of all ceremonies? I couldn't be more thrilled for my man Steve. Ever since his days on The Office as Michael Scott, I haven't been able to get enough of Carell, his acting talent, and his comedy that never fails to make me laugh and cry, all at once. He's one talented man, so I'm not really surprised that he's now up for an Academy Award.
