As previously mentioned, it was a snoozy Oscars this year. You could have driven a car through the space between Amy Adams' breasts, but eh. Marion Cotillard looked totally hot in this mermaid type fish scale dress by Jean Paul Gaultier. I'm still trying to figure out why Hannah Montana was there. For real, is she an Academy member? Was it just Miley Cyrus product placement? She looked way older than 15. I mean, she wasn't wearing pasties or anything but some dude could get the wrong idea. She's barely out of freshman year! Stay on the tour bus and write in your rainbow journal. A lot of oldies dominated this year, like Helen Mirren, Ruby Dee, and Julie Christie. These women wore sorta fug outfits but wore them with class. Tilda Swinton wore a big tall black velvet bag but she could have worn a bikini made of fudge and still looked avant-garde and icy and beautiful. Katherine Heigl has a serious case of stagefright during the show, and usually she ticks me off with her holier-than-thou bullshit but I thought she looked hot in fire engine red. I've already discussed Alba and her wine. Keri Russell has this pale swan thing going on. And the standout chick was Diablo Cody who wore this feline giraffe type outfit that showed off her gigantic tattoos. We need more strippers on the red carpet. Kimora Lee Simmons doesn't count.

Wow, that dancing W the Stars woman's lips are out of control. My fav dress is Hilary Swank's Versace by now. I always find it a weird idea to wear red on the red carpet...?!?
Plz post After party pics!

Sunny says:
I nearly wept with delight and pride when I enlarged Julie Christie's photograph. Good for her for not freezing, flattening and filling her beautiful face!

I am so over Katherine Heigl and her "old Hollywood glamour" schtick. Seriously, how many times is she going to appear on the carpet with red lips and perfectly coiffed hair? And why is no one else bored to tears with this look? It's been done before. Would it kill her to change her silhouette once in a while and loosen up, modernize the hair? It's the same look every time, just a different color dress. Wish I could say I'm on the edge of my seat just waiting to see what she does next time.
