When Hollywood Dogs Bite: Inside Harvey Levin’s Oscar Night Scare!

Oscar nights are usually high on glamour and low on drama, unless you’re Harvey Levin. Back in 2012, while trying to get the dog that played Jack in “The Artist” a spot at the Academy Awards, the TMZ boss found himself on the receiving end of a shocking surprise. As Levin reached out to pet this furry starlet, he got a little more bite than he bargained for! Talk about taking “dog-eat-dog” to a whole new level.

The night was a big one for “The Artist,” racking up awards including Best Picture and Best Actor. But let’s not gloss over the real star here: the dog! While the film was making waves, it seems poor Harvey was nursing a wounded ego—or maybe just a bruised hand. Can you even imagine being sidelined by a pup on what should have been a glorious night?

In true Hollywood spirit, I’m sure the furry actor enjoyed all the treats and attention it could handle after strutting down the red carpet. It’s a reminder that not every star is as friendly as they appear on screen. So, what do you think—should there be a disclaimer for working with celebrity pets? Have you ever had a pet moment turn unexpectedly wild?
