She won an Oscar for a role that was probably voted on by 60-70 year olds not a big deal, it's best supporting actress and the movie sucked in my opinion. You realize that the Three 6 Mafia also have an Oscar right? she's not a huge star, most people who watch idol look down on wrestling and are mostly women, she hasn't done shit since, and isn't one of the top 20 names in the hip hop/R&B/ Pop industry and I can put off names if anyone really wants to question it.
As for Otunga if they just use his last name like the use for (Dave) Batista, then I see his name not being a problem, the guy has the look, has some charisma but haven't really seen him wrestle enough to make a judgement.
