Kieran Culkin’s bleeped speech revealed after Oscars censored X-rated remarks

Kieran Culkin’s bleeped speech revealed after Oscars censored X-rated remarks

Kieran Culkin’s bleeped remarks during his Oscar speech have been revealed, after his X-rated remarks were censored during the broadcast.

The 42-year-old won best supporting actor for the comedy-drama A Real Pain, written and directed by his co-star Jesse Eisenberg. 

One of the nominees he beat out was his old Succession co-star Jeremy Strong, who was up for his role as Roy Cohn in the Donald Trump biopic The Apprentice.

At the beginning of his speech, Culkin paid a sweet tribute to Strong – only for part of his remarks to be muted because of profanity.

Now, however, a video has surfaced on social media that shows the full comment Culkin made on Strong’s acclaimed performance, via ᴅᴇᴀᴅline.

Robert Downey Jr., who presented the award, had praised Strong’s turn as Cohn, and Culkin agreed, saying: ‘He’s right, by the way, Jeremy, you’re amazing in The Apprentice. I love your work. It’s f***ing great.’

Culkin then realized he had made a mistake by swearing on camera, and quickly covered his mouth in an apologetic gesture.

‘I’m not supposed to single anyone out. It’s favoritism. Anyway, but you were great,’ he added to Strong, who had played his character’s brother on Succession.

During his Oscars speech, Culkin also reminded his wife of the wholesome promise she made to him years ago if he ever won the coveted Oscar trophy.

While accepting the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his performance in A Real Pain, Culkin admitted that his wife, Jazz Charton, agreed to give him a fourth child if he ever won an Academy Award.

‘About a year ago, I was on a stage like this and I very stupidly, publicly said that I want a third kid from her because she said if I won the award she would give me the kid,’ Culkin said on-stage while holding his Oscar statuette.

‘Turns out she said that because she didn’t think I was gonna win,’ he jokingly shared.

‘She goes, “Oh god, I did say that. I guess I owe you a third kid.” And I turned to her and I said, “Really, I want four,”‘ Culkin recounted to the audience.

At that moment, he recalled Charton saying: ‘I will give you four when you win an Oscar.’

Culkin then took the opportunity to remind Charton of her promise, pointing out that he has ‘not brought it up once until just now.’

‘But I just have this to say to you Jazz, love of my life, ye of little faith,’ he joked. ‘No pressure, I love you, I’m really sorry I did this again and let’s get cracking on those kids. What do you say?’

The camera cut to Charton in the crowd, as she was seen laughing at her husband’s candid acceptance speech and seemingly agreed to follow through on her promise.

Back in 2012, the 36-year-old writer met Culkin at a bar in New York City. Charton, who was born in London and raised by a single mom, started dating Culkin shortly after their first meeting. 

One year later, the pair eloped in Iowa while on a road trip.

These days, the couple are proud parents to five-year-old daughter Kinsey and three-year-old son Wilder Wolf.

Culkin was nominated in the best supporting actor category alongside Yura Borisov for Anora, Edward Norton for A Complete Unknown, Guy Pearce for The Brutalist, and his Succession co-star Jeremy Strong for The Apprentice.

Receiving his first Oscar nomination and win, Culkin also won at this year’s SAG Awards, Critics Choice Awards and the Golden Globes.

The Home Alone star previously begged his ‘beautiful wife’ Charton for more kids at the 2024 Emmy Awards.

‘Thank you for sharing your life with me and for giving me two amazing kids,’ he said during his acceptance speech at the time.

‘And Jazz, I want more. You said maybe, if I win,’ he added.
