From Hollywood to Ottawa | The Press

Attention: speedboats on the horizon.


Steven Spielberg, Cate Blanchett, or Michelle Yeoh, if they do not win a statuette on Sunday evening, will not leave the Oscars empty-handed. In the traditional surprise bag distributed to the artists who have won the most nominations are several candies, including… a three-night stay in a wealthy residence in the Ottawa region!

You read correctly. Baptized “The Lifestyle”, the cabin built in 2014, whose ottawa citizen draws a glowing portrait, throws it. Think: granite floors, movie theater, pool, jacuzzi, and a stairwell that seemingly defies the most basic laws of gravity. Not to mention the two sports cars made available to its happy visitors (a Shelby Cobra and a McLaren Artura, if you want to know everything), at $40,000 the value of the stay, we guess that the renters should indeed not miss Nothing.

The total value of this famous consolation prize (a tradition of more than twenty years that we owe not to the Oscars, but to a publicity company, Distinctive Assets) is estimated at more than 100,000 US dollars. . It includes, this year, among other things: a bottle of coconut milk water, liposuction and three days on an Italian volcanic island. Note that the Canadian stay is the biggest gift of the lot.
