Oscar Hacking pt. 2, How to Win Academy Awards for Best Actor and Actress

"Hello, Internet. Welcome to FILM THEORY, where we have no idea why the Academy Awards are called "Oscars". But guess what? No one does! Hollywood legend has it coming from either Walt Disney or the Academy's executive secretary, Margaret Herrick, who thought that the statuette looked like her uncle Oscar. It's weird, right, that perhaps the most prestigious award has a nickname that came from... nowhere!"
