The Motion Picture Academy of Arts and Sciences announced today that they are creating a special category of Oscar, beginning with this year’s ceremony, that will be reserved exclusively for actor Kevin Spacey.

“We just really, really like the guy, you know?” said an Academy spokesperson. “That’s why we’ve created the Kevin Spacey Perpetual Award, to be given to Kevin Spacey every single year from now on. We just think he’s a great practitioner of his craft, and a delight to have around.”

Speaking under condition of anonymity, at a location that may or may not have been the Viper Room, the spokesperson, wearing a Groucho mask and holding a handkerchief in front of his mouth to disguise his voice, went on to add that “This doesn’t mean he won’t still be eligible for Oscars in other categories, like Best Actor or whatever. It just means that we’re assured of having him up on stage and thanking the Academy at least once every year.”

“The great thing is, he’s not some fat, bloated lunatic with his best years long behind him who walks around the set without his pants on and sends Native American women to pick up his awards and talk politics all night, like Brando. And he’s not a young, talented firebrand like Sean Penn, who ignores our annual get-together and calls us all bad names. He’s just a real nice guy in real life. Or so I’ve heard.”

Casting a wary glance from side to side to make sure no one was eavesdropping, the spokesperson went to say, in a very low voice, “There is also a significant faction among the Academy members who still think he might actually be Keyser Soze, and I can tell you in confidence that that belief may have played a small part in this decision. Of course,” he said, chuckling slightly and leaning back in his chair, “he could also really be the alien Prot, and disappear from this Earth in a beam of light at any time, heh. That’s the beautiful thing about Kev is that you just never know, you know what I mean?”

When asked if there were plans to set up a special Perpetual Award for anyone else, the spokesperson replied, “Well, we tossed around Julia Roberts’ name for a while, because most of us like her a lot, but the consensus was that we would hold off with her until she decides to get naked onscreen. Because really, how are you supposed to judge if a broad’s got talent or not when she keeps her clothes on in every single movie she makes? I mean, what’s up with that?”
