How many nominations have you had, Ryan?

Poor Marisa Tomei. Ever since her Oscar win in 1993 for "My Cousin Vinny" she's been the butt of many a joke. When Ryan Seacrest tried to get her to talk about her 16-year absence from the invite list, she coolly replied, "I was back here after that as well." In addition to this year's "The Wrestler" she was nominated in 2002 for "In the Bedroom."
