He's best known as "Family Guy" Peter Griffin and the foul-mouthed bear Ted, but funnyman Seth MacFarlane's newest role is apparently that of fairy godmother.
I don't judge. The Oscar host worked with the show's producers in selecting six film school students to handle trophies at the Academy Awards.
Usually these kids would have to wait years before getting an invitation to Hollywood's biggest event, but MacFarlane, who told MTV News that even he's failed to get a ticket in previous years, wanted a way for students to make a connection with the industry early on.

It's a good year for it, too. While the Oscar ratings have been dipping in the past couple of years, this year boasts one of the most popular Best Picture lineup in decades.
According to Box Office Mojo, this year sees six of the nine nominated films grossing over 100 million dollars each in the US alone, with a combined total of over $1 billion worldwide!
The three stragglers are the controversial Zero Dark Thirty, the indie Beasts of the Southern Wild and the foreign film Amour, but surprisingly, it's the talky, two-hour political drama Lincoln that leads the pack, with $176 mil and counting!
Lincoln's making news all over the place, it seems. The New York Daily News reports that a University of Mississippi professor was so moved by the film that he started doing some research concerning the events and found out something very interesting...
Indeed. The movie depicts the historic vote on the 13th Amendment, which ended slavery in 1865, but due to clerical errors and misfiled paperwork, the state of Mississippi never officially adopted the amendment.
Not only that -- the paperwork missing was from a vote in 1995, over 100 years after the amendment passed.
