Wedding Woes

PW: The Oscars

- Where were Farrah & Bea in the "In Memoriam" segment? 

- WHATTHEFUCK happened to Judd Nelson!?

- I love Jeff Bridges. And his wife is beautiful.

- I'm SO GLAD they didn't have Beyonce come out and sing all the nominated songs this year.

- WTH @ Ben Stiller?

- We were all sorts of confused at the woman who rushed the stage during the Best Documentary Short acceptance speech. WTF was she rambling on about? And who was she?

- And finally, did they REALLY have to play "I am Woman" when Kathryn Bigelow was walking offstage (the first time)?

- Oh. And was she drunk? Her best picture speech was bizarre. Spit it out, woman!

What am I forgetting?

    -The woman with the Kanye moment supposedly WAS associated with the short film, but didn't do enough work to be mentioned, but wanted to accept for her part?

    What the hell was with the crown of frizz on SJP and J=Lo? Not to mention, WTH were they both wearing. J-Lo needs to avoid things that make her hips look bigger and SJP just looked bad.

    He keep giving her the stink eye, and she kept talking. He should have pushed her out of the way.

    I fliped back and forth, but I enjoyed the dancers. I missed Monique, but I caught her doing the interviews on E. She was running the show.

    "No Sugar, I want number 87 to go next." funny

    Judd Nelson looked BAD. I so wanted them to bring Jake from 16 Candles on stage. I would love to see what he looks like now.

    The woman who bum-rushed the state apparently had been involved with the film at the very beginning, but was fired from it over a year before it was completed...but since she was associated with it at one point, she was invited.

    Alec and Steve were not funny.

    I did love NPH at the beginning though.

    Yeah.  That was weird.  Not cute at all.

    Yahoo!'s Oscar fashion review gave that dress an A or something like that.  They just decided to ignore the boob flowers.

    I just reinforces my belief that certain actresses get a red carpet fashion pass, even when they wear something bad.

    Edited because my brain thinks faster than I type.

    I also did not like Charleze Theron's (sp?) dress.  The flowers might as well have been hands.

    I think Alec & Steve did okay, but probably not up to what was anticipated. I loved the glares exchanged with George Clooney and the Meryl Streep jokes. 

    I hate, hate, hate that they did the best actor & actress awards the same way they did last year with someone giving a speech about how this person in so graceful, so generous, an inspiration to starving babies everywhere, etc.  The Oscars are already over-the-top enough without that part, and half of these people are probably azzholes IRL. 

    I gasped out loud at Judd Nelson.  Ally Sheedy also is not aging well.


    I liked that they gave the nominated scores more attention than the songs, especially in a year when none of the songs were very exciting. 

    Farrah & Bea were probably not Academy members.  They were both TV people.


    I was disappointed to see that they let Miley Cyrus on stage.  And did anybody see her mom on the red carpet show?  The woman couldn't even touch up her roots for the Oscars?

    Charlize looked ridiculous, which is extra shocking because she needs to try *really* hard to look ridiculous.

    Ditto WTF at Ben Stiller.

    Sandra Bullock's awful lipstick almost completely negated the rest of her very gorgeous styling.

    I enjoyed the dancing part and thought I recognized 3 SYTYCD dancers.  Was going to look that up today to see if it really was them.

    Did anyone see Kathy Ireland on the pre-show?  WTF?  Sorry, but that's a pretty big belly for a supermodel.  Even a former supermodel.  And could she actually not walk?  She only pivoted, and never walked one step.  Absurd. 

    I found the dresses mostly "meh."  Nothing spectacularly awesome, and only Charlize being spectacularly bad. Most seemed pretty in-between (I think about half on the good side and half on the bad side).

    Hurt Locker was the only BP nominee that I actually saw, and I didn't really get a "best picture of the year" vibe from it.  I mean, it was good, but BEST?  IDK. I will say I don't think avatar deserved it.  I didn't see it, but from what I could tell it was just visually spectacular but didn't have enough elements (e.g., plot) to make it a "best picture."  James CAmeron will just have to be happy with his $1B box office take.

    I also LOVED Gabourey Sidibe when the introduced the best actor/actress nominees at the beginning.  The others just stood there smiling, but she was shakin' her groove thing.  Way to enjoy the moment, Gabby!

    I enjoyed being able to FF through most of it.

    I've always disliked Kathy Ireland.  I didn't notice the belly because I was so distracted by the hair in her face and constant shouting.
