Denzel Washington, who has two Academy Awards to his name, recently said in an interview that he is "not that interested in" receiving the prestigious awards.

When interviewer Jake Hamilton replied, “I don’t think God ever asks how many Oscars do you have,” the actor then quipped with a laugh, “He [God] might go, ‘That’s why I gave you an extra week.’ [As] long as he says, ‘Now, get on up here,’ I’m all right.”

“I don’t care who’s following who,” he said. “You can’t lead and follow at the same time, and you can’t follow and lead at the same time. I don’t follow anybody. I follow the heavenly spirit. I follow God, I don’t follow man. I have faith in God. I have hope in man, but look around, it ain’t working out so well.”
