In an interview with Latina magazine, Jennifer Lopez says that she thinks she should have won an award for El Cantante, (which I'm pretty sure is Spanish for "Total Crap") that vanity project about salsa musician Hector Lavoe she did with husband Marc Anthony in 2006.

"I feel like I had that [Oscar worthy role] in El Cantante, but I don't even think the academy members saw it. I feel like it's their responsibility to do that, to see everything that's out there, everything that could be great."

"Well, it is a little bit frustrating. It was funny; when the Oscars were on, I had just given birth on the 22nd, and the Oscars, I think, were a day or two later. I was sitting there with my twins--I couldn't have been happier--but I was like, 'How dope would it have been if I would've won the Oscar and been here in my hospital bed accepting the award?' 'Thank you so much! I just want to thank the academy!' (Source)

J. Lo has got some brass ones to suggest the only reason why she wasn't nominated for an Academy Award was because the academy members didn't "see" her movie. But to play the devil's advocate, let's say they did see it (because let's face it, nobody saw that movie). Her competition for best leading actress would have only been Helen Mirren, (who won for The Queen) Kate Winslet, Dame Judi Dench, Meryl Streep and Penélope Cruz. The only way Jennifer Lopez was taking home a little gold statue that year is if she had one of those babies of hers dipped in gold. There were two of them, after all.

Just for fun, J. Lo's sausage casingly awesome New Year's Eve performance:
