Actress Tessa Thompson revealed she nearly broke voting rules at the Academy Awards while trying to support a close friend, offering a candid look at the pressures and loyalties behind Hollywood's biggest night.
Speaking in a recent interview, Thompson said she once came close to influencing the outcome of an Oscars vote in favour of actor Michael B. Jordan, her co-star in Creed. She explained that she felt strongly about backing his work but stopped herself before taking any action that would violate the Academy's strict voting rules.
