Apparently lots of nominees refused the gift bags because you have to pay taxes on it.
Items:
•Laser vibrator. The Afterglow Pulsewave Vibrator bills itself as the world's only adult toy that utilizes a low-level laser to enhance arousal. Value: $250
•Orgasm booster. "The Couple's Love Shot," as it's called, is available to each of two "lovers" who can receive orgasm boosters including the O-Shot (Orgasm Shot), created by the same doctor who invented the Vampire Facelift to reduce wrinkles. Value: $5,000
•Pricey condoms. Naked Luxury Condoms, dubbed "the world's only luxury condom" and "the most pleasurable condom in the world." Value: $56 for two 6-packs
•Holiday in Tuscany. With the Italian Luxury Hotel Package, nominees will receive three complimentary nights in a suite at the five-star Grand Hotel Tremezzo. Value: $11,500.
•Chi-Chi car rental. A year's worth of Silvercar rentals, the all-Audi airport car rental service that promises no lines, free GPS, free Sirius radio and free Wi-Fi every time. Value: $20,000
•Whiz-bang bicycle. Martone Cycling, known for its fashion and design-driven bikes, will hand out certificates for free designer bikes with automatic transmission and its signature red bike chains. Value: $1,200
Not listed is some psychic dude that comes to your house to get you in sync with the universe. Its a $20,000 ticket.

The paradox of life...the richer you are, the more free shite you get.
Strange items in the gift bag though.

The orgasm placebo shot and the scam artist psychic ruin the whole thing if you have to pay taxes on it.

I'd understand if it was the AVN awards, but wtf are the Oscars doing giving out so much adult-themed stuff? Is there a backstory?

Less athletic Olympics-esque sex fest?

I suppose the backstory is what do you give someone who can buy whatever they want?
When you put it that way, you aren't left with much besides weird/fun things people might not buy for themselves for many reasons, but might enjoy.

I thought Obama wanted Hollywood to pay its fair share. Oh, my bad. He only wants Republicans to pay their fair share.

Sometimes stars donate the gift bags for a tax credit. Not sure how a vibrator and a psychic reading work on donation?
