Best Supporting Actor?

Alright, I am just going to go right out and say this. Would Heath Ledger have won the Oscar if he wasn't dead? I'm not saying his performance in The Dark Knight wasn't good but I am not convinced it wa Oscar worthy. I admit I never got the big hoopla about TDK and why everyone was so in love with it. Heath's Joker was very good I just question if the fact that he is dead played a part in the voting?

Oscar Fashion

Best

Marisa Tomei
It is a breathtaking color that switches between white, silver, champagne...The patterns are something I have never seen before. At first it is off putting but that they are different is what makes them beautiful. I adore the one shoulder as well as the flowing train.



Kate Winslet:
Another beautiful silver dress although this one is tinged with gray. And once again there is another one shoulder gown. This gown would simply be beautiful if it were not for the black lace on the left side that is designed with flowers; that is what makes it stunning.






Anne Hathaway:
She glows! There are few dresses that could be worn to a wedding, to the prom, as a bride, and to the Oscars. Anne found one and she looks fantastic.









Zac Efron:
One of the few times where he looks fantastic. The men who go to these awards have so few choices in what they can wear. A nice suit or a tux; Zac looks great in his tux. He looks sophisticated while still looking young. He put some of the older guys too shame.







Hugh Jackman:
Another man wearing a simple tux, but wearing it so brilliantly!
Makes me think he could have been James Bond.









Brad Pitt:
This is a shinier version of a suit that is similar to Zac and Hugh's. If it wasn't for that gawd awful mustache he would look great.










Taraji Henson:
I think I've seen a dress similar to this before, but I can't remember where. It kind of reminds me of the wedding dress Donald Trump's wife wore; only more elegant. I don't know what the dress is made of silk or satin, or what the patterns are but I like it. It is simple but still beautiful. Another of the many women who showed her shoulder's last night, but Taraji has decided to put on a rather fierce necklace, and it works for her. Because her dress is so simple it makes sense to wear one piece of jewlery that catches your attention.





Jennifer Aniston:
I wonder if anyone is going to count how many women had no sleeves on their gowns. Well what can I say I love the look. This dress with white mixed with silver sparkles is beautiful on Jennifer. The one thing I can't stand is her hair. I don't know what she always has to wear her hair down, but that poorly put together braid across the top is not helping matters. She should have worn her hair up with a tiny jewel around her neck. Despite the hair, she still looks great. And once again I love the patterns and design of the dress.




Reese Witherspoon:
Blue and black are my favorite colors, so this dress is already a winner to me based simply on that. But the various ways the colors, designs, and patterns intermingle in the dress is also what makes me like it. They all seem to bleed in and out of each other harmoniously. And the train and how the colors look in it just made my jaw drop. This is a dress that is taking a risk and I beleive the risk worked, but it is an acquired taste. I will also give her credit for putting a new twist on the style of the evening, strapless.






Penelope Cruz:
I'm not good with colors so I don't know exactly what color this is, some sort of off white mixture. I love the simplicity mixed with the extravagent designs. The color compliments her complexion and it all worked for her.
















Queen Latifah:
There were a few women who wore lace around the bottom part of their dress or in their train. This is the only time I think it worked and didn't look like a bad throwback to the 80's. I like how the little bits of silver around the bust and hip. It makes the gown stand out more. It gives it a feel of a small lamp on in the far corner of a dark room.





Virginia Madsen:
And sometimes simple is just simply a good thing. Red on a red carpet is a risk imo and she pulled it off. There is just something about this dress that makes me not give a damn about anything else but the person in it. She wears it beautifully! I love the color, the train, the belt, the shiny texture everything. The earings also do a wonderful justice to the outfit and is like the cherry on top.

Worst
Heidi Klum:
Good gawd Heidi you are on the Red Carpet at the Oscars not the catwalk! The color is horrible! What is that red mixed with orange?!?! I can't believe that someone actually drew this dress and looked at it and said, hey that will work! The only thing good about this is her shoes, too bad it had to go with this horrendous attempt at style. Poor shoes, they will never live this down.
Marion Cottilard
I don't care which fashion idiot decided the 80's were back. This dress looks horrible simply because it is a throwback to the 80's. Like Miley's dress it takes a turn for the worst as soon as you hit below the belt. It looks like three people could have tripped over her skirts. This isn't gone with the wind, there is no need to have a hundred skirts around your feet! I swear I had a dress like this when I was seven! The frill under dress made my legs itch. Someone give her some shoulder pads and some big hair and send her back to 1989.




Angelina Jolie
This gown was forgettable and I would have put Angelina on my, I never knew she was there list if it were not for the fit of the gown. It looks awful on her, it does nothing for her shape on the contrary it makes her look like she doesn't have a shape. I expect more from Angelina which is why she is going on my list.





Miley Cyrus
The top is nice, and yay! someone had sleeves! But below the belt is a mess. This dress is like Miley's personality, it's just too out there and too over the top bordering on obnoxious. Like Miley this dress needs some Ritalin. But the belt and above the belt is very beautiful. If we could only see her from the bellybutton up I would say it is the best she has ever looked. I think what doesn't make this gown work is the crazy lilly pads framing the skirt.






Whoopi Goldberg
Oh please do I even have to explain? Gawd I understand she goes by the name Whoopi so its obvious it's all a joke to her, but I was not only disgusted but almost insulted and hell if I know why. Maybe because I'm black, maybe because I'm a woman, I don't know.








Sarah Jessica Parker:
She looks like she is a ballerina who took a wrong turn and got lost. Not only is the tutu bottom horrible, but what is up with the waist area? It looks like one of those dishelveled guys who forgot to stick their shirt in their pants. Sarah like Angelina should have known better!




Bridget Fonda:
Did she get this piece of crap from JC Penny!??! Now I shop at JC Penny, but this woman has the money and means to try harder. It looks like she just rolled out of bed, was making herself some popcorn then all of a sudden decided to go the Oscars. The color, fit, pattern, texture, everything about this can only be described as one word....Ugly!

CHIPPENDALES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good gawd I saw Chippendales perform on Wednesday of this week. Good gawd "I'm in love with a stripper"! Or maybe 4 strippers.
This is one of them, the only one that I liked whose name I could actually find. While I was there I just referred to him as the one with the tattoo on his back. Thank you Steve Kim for putting your videos on Youtube otherwise I would never have known his name.
Half the time I was there I was embarrassed because of my gender, good gawd we can no longer call men dogs because we lose all our class and inhibitions alcohol or no alcohol. I admit I went a little bit crazy but not psycho, I was just chasing the man above around the club floor as he got groped by non stop women. I was checking out his tattoo as well and kept touching it. I am such a tat addict now. Then I was purposely getting in there way when they ran off the stage so they would have to ask me to move and one of them touched me on the back so he could move me out of the way. HAHA SWEET! Lord knows who it was, I didn't bring my camera(like the idiot I am) and I left my phone in the car! I had to go CIA to find the guy in the picture, once again thank you Steve. The friend I went with liked Elvin, or she did until he copped an attitude with her. I'll have to ask if he's still feeling him. One of them also complimented by breast...all I said was thank you but what I really should have said is you can touch them if I can touch yours. Oh why did God give me intelligence but no people skills?
After Wednesday I will no longer go gay for Katherine or Portia, I'm still questioning my stance on Natalie Portman though. After seeing a bunch of naked guys running around I realized that I can be nothing but strictly dickly baby. Thank God I didn't drink anything or I would have turned into a total slut and done god knows what with some of them....
Oh also after Wednesday I have also decided that I am going to lose weight!
