Kate Winslet keeps her Oscar in the bathroom so that people can pretend to give acceptance speeches.
Since guests have some privacy in the bathroom, they can pick up the award and pretend to give a speech in the mirror. "The whole point is for everybody to pick it up and go, ‘I’d like to thank my son and my dad’ — and you can always tell when someone has, because they’re in there a little bit longer after they flushed," Winslet said.
