Actor Jack Nicholson admits he loves to use the Oscar Awards ceremony to hit on beautiful women.

The 70-year-old star - who has won three Academy Awards during his illustrious career - admits the annual awards ceremony is his favourite.

"What can I say?," he said. "I'm an Oscar man. What are you going to do, not enjoy the beauties in the room?"

The veteran star also revealed he was almost blinded by all the photographers' flashes when he attended his first ever Academy Awards in 1970 where he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for Easy Rider.

He told the USA Today newspaper: "There were so many of them, it blinded you. I just stood there, trying to count them all. And I thought, 'Jesus, I'm really here. I really made it.' "

And he thinks he deserves an Oscar award for "being a pain in the ass for so long".

The 70-year-old actor would love to add a Lifetime Achievement Award to his already bulging collection of prizes.

He said: "I wouldn't mind winning another Oscar. Even one of those sentimental ones for being a pain in the ass for so long."
