Grand Rapids, Mich. (WOTV) - An Oscar nominee isn't guaranteed to bring home the gold this Sunday, but they still go home a winner with these unbelievably lavish gifts. Each year celebs are showered with beautiful gifts during each award season show. This year, the celebrity bags are filled with gifts topping $47,802 worth of fab items from around the world.

It's a big expense for vendors to supply gifts to each of the stars at the suite, but it can mean for a big pay off. Companies hand out these lavish gifts with hopes of big opportunities. All it takes is for one celebrity to wear the jewelry, tweet about a cookie or cross the red carpet wearing a particular watch, and the word spreads like wildfire. That's the big break that these vendors are looking for at the gifting suites each year.

So even if a gold statue isn't awarded to a particular star this weekend, they still took home a swag bag from the suite where everyone wins!

Jordan Carson had the opportunity to see the incredible vendors from across the globe, and check out this year's coveted swag bag to the stars! Click link below for photos.
