The night was awesome.
I AM SO GLAD THAT CRASH WON!!!!YEAH!
I was surprised that Dolly Parton did not win! Her vocal performance was amazing and she didn’t need a fancy setup, dancers or choreography.
Poor Jen Garner!!! I think my heart stopped for a second just like hers! she looked beautiful though.
Jessica Alba, Reese (and Ryan the cutest and happiest couple ever!) and Felicity, Jennifer Aniston were the best dressed of the night. The worst dressed (at the afterparties) hate to say this but it must be Donatella versace…and who else? well… Ms. Amanda Lepore of course. Kimora looked bad too.
I loved Megan Mullally’s, Mischa’s, Nicole Richie’s and Rachel Bilson’s looks at the VF party.
WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH SIENNA MILLER KISSING TOM FORD!!?????? Hello?!?

I was actually happy that Crash won. That was such a good film and I think it really affected ppl everywhere. It was very upfront and honest. I felt bad for Jenn Garner … she almost fell lol .. poor girl. As far as Reese well I was rootin for her all the way. I didnt want Felicity Huffman to win. I’m tired of desperate housewives. Its the cable version of sex and the city. So she can take her trannie movie somewhere else. I’m pissed that Joauqin Pheonix lost. He shoulda won !!! Capote put me to sleep and Three Six Mafia … well I dont want to be a hater so congrats guys.

Does anyone else think Sandra Bullock looked preggers? What was up with the pockets? And her face was really swollen…

Felicity huffman looked WICKED good. As did Alba. I thought Reece’s dress- though vintage and restored- was too long. She should have gone lower calf. She looked like the top of a wedding cake. I wasn’t overly impressed… And Anniston? String bean with even stringier hair.

I held my breath for Bacall- I think carting out old people every year is humiliating, uncomfortable, and just not cool. I dig paying tribute and all- but parading them and their Parkinson’s, or Alzheimer’s, or Senility out in front of one billion people is cruel.

Hey- I am happy that the whole spandex thing seems to be over. Last night, fashion seemed to be about elegance, not anorexia. Rachel Weisz- 7 months pregnant- absolutely stunning- one of the most beautiful there preggers or not. Compare her to Kate Hudson, who for some reason, could not find a shirt large enough to cover her big old belly.

I watched Seacrest- and all I could think about was Kathy Griffin’s “Allegedly”… have you guys seen it? She takes about how gay he is and what a psycho egomaniac he is- you totally saw it last night in the pre-show when the guy on set picked him up? And then Seacrest thought the camara was off and was rolling his eyes and snarling.. priceless.

Joan and Melissa literally make me nauseous.

My FAVORITE hour of television is the 60 minutes leading up to the Oscars…

I so wanted Joaquin Pheonix to win. Hoffman is a good actor, but he gives me the creeps…like he needs a good shower or something, eww. I’m so happy Reese won! Felicity Huffman has had her moment all year, this was Reese’s turn. And poor Jen Garner. :( I would have cried if she fell. Best looking actress as far as dress was Reese and Jessica Alba, even though I am not an Alba fan. Nice duds though.

my favorite oscar moment was when the documentarian thanked the academy for seating her next to george clooney at the nominee’s luncheon. priceless.

i’m surprised no one is speculating on this:
what was up with joaquin phoenix sending little messages through national television? what a strange little man.

What are you talking about Jones?

I can’t believe that a bunch of illiterate thugs won the damn Oscar. Dolly Parton was robbed.

The illiterate thugs did not get the oscar for reading, they received the oscar for best original score. The movie was about pimps and hustling…I don’t think it required a master’s degree in literature to sing about that :-).

Can you imagine what the engravers thought while etching “Pimps” onto the Oscar tag? Too funny.

Mostly everyone looked great last night…cept Michelle Williams…she looked like a giant mustard bottle as far as I’m concerned…with a little ketchup lipstick to top it off lol…
But that’s all I really have to say…I didn’t watch much of it….

Jones I know what you are talkin about … everytime the camera was on Joaquin he was tellin someone he loved them. Atleast thats what it looked like he was saying. I thought it was sweet.

Jones, I thought that woman was silly, did you see the look on George’s face?

And Lisa Dolly’s song was awful.

Tia, I agree with you all the way. The only people I like on Desparate Housewives are the Felicity, the red head and the tramp. The rest they could get rid of and have a great show!
I saw Crash a couple of weeks ago. I thought it was great.
I would have never picked it up though if I weren’t interested in seeing Matt Dillon.
E! should be ashamed of themselves with that horrible show. How does Ryan get jobs anyway?

cowgirl…

she was silly, sure…but ballsy, and I respect that! I just love it when the non-celebs win and are totally excited and real. i think that’s why I appreciated her.

i also think clooney was hamming it up a bit with the face after she said it–at least, i hope so!

Best Presenter: Meryl Streep and Lily Tomlin; Funniest Presentor: Ben Stiller; Best Acceptance speech: Reese Witherspoon; Worst Acceptance speech: 360 Mafia: Most enthusiastic: 360 Mafia: Most Ungracious: George Clooney when he made that face in response to the woman being pleased to have been sitted next to him. Worst moment(s): when they cut off the second person in Best Original Screenplay (or Editing) and Best picture. For God’s sake, we could have done without that whole film noir/Bacall crap. And, I do have to ask: where is Charlene’s boyfriend?

ARGH: seated; not sitted. Sorry everyone

To each his own, I liked the Dolly Parton song, and can’t stand rap. I just think that if you win a prestigious award, such as an Academy award, you should behave yourself in a manner befitting the honor itself.

I don’t think it’s wrong to show a little class.

Anyway, what was up with Sandra Bullock not bringing her husband, Jesse James. She brought Keanu instead?

I liked Stewart’s comment about pimps: Like agents, with better hats.

I don’t think Stewart got the love he deserved. Overall, I enjoyed his work.

It’s just priceless when the nerds win awards. They act like total geeks on stage and don’t care.

Speaking of nerds, did Rachel McAdams lose a bet or somthing? She was forced to sit at the kid’s table, hosting the tech awards. I wonder how many of the techies tried to impress her. I’m a techie, so I get to say stuff like that.

Speaking of uncomforable moments, I wonder if Jack Nicolson made a move on Knightly.

Who was the co-winner who got played off completely? He went up to speak second and didn’t get a chance.

And I don’t think gays should feel too bad. Capote and Brokeback both won hardware.

I was so disappointed that Joaquin didn’t win. He totally deserved it. On to Ryan Seacrest. Is he finally out of the closet? I mean there was some serious competition between him and Isaac as to who was the bigger queen. Btw, Michelle Williams looked the best…

lisa: I agree three 6 mafia (i don’t know how they spelled it) should have had on tuxedos after they did their performance. When I saw the pictures of them accepting the award, I had to read to make sure this was at the oscars and not the grammys.

It is hard to show “class” when you have never been anywhere to see it.

It’s hard to speak in complete sentences, when you are encouraged (and paid!) to speak like you have never, ever been to school.

Our society….what to do, what to do?

I agree with you 100%

36 mafia may not have been the best at their acceptance speech not b/c they don’t know how to speak well but more likely were just so surprised and excited to have won such an unexpected award..it’s really offensive to come to their defense by basically saying they’re just stipid and ignorant (blacks)who have never been anywhere to know better..how would you react in their position?

Worn a tux.

It’s not about them being ignorany blacks, it’s about them being ignorant period. I’m sure Eminem (white) would have went up there in sweats and mumbled crap too

The thing is…they are at the Oscars, a traditionally classy event. Even being nominated, they have a 1/5 chance of winning. That means they have a 1/5 chance of being on stage.

Practice a speech, get 50$ and rent a tux, and leave the grillz at home. It’s not that hard, Ludacris did it…

i just assumed they weren’t wearing tuxes because they had literally just performed their song. isn’t that possible?

Good point Jones.

Still no excuse for the teeth and behavior.

I did not watch the oscars, so I don’t know if best original score category was presented right after the song….if that was the case, I understand why they did not have on a tux.

come on anon….I am not coming to three 6 mafia’s defense by saying they are stipid (sic) and ignorant (blacks)who have never been anywhere to know better – YOUR WORDS.

For the most part THAT is the genre ( the hard life, the pimping to make a way, etc) of rap…and by the way…black folks are the only race of folks who rap…..

ummmm Enon? Your racism is showing, dear.

Not to defend three6mafia ( Me being white and from Memphis, tn!), but on the pre-show, they looked very , very nice in their tuxes and oscar appropriate outfits. And they did NOT have their grills in—it is a shame that the producers asked them to re-enact their song via “hustle and flow” with same -type clothes as the movie. I felt it was insulting to them. As for the song, well, it does unfortunately represent where some of the artists come from, but it does not accurately portray where they are from now. Know for a fact as I live down the street from one of the rappers in a rather modest suburb. I am proud of them, just hate the show made them look a little classless.Which is NOT the case.

That should have read: black folks are NOT the only folks who rap.

Ahh, the Lisas above: What intelligent debate. You’re both Rhodes scholars I can tell. Celebrity blogs tend to attract Rhodes scholars and MENSA members like the Lisas above:

Three 6 Mafia undid everything you wanted to believe about America, huh? They sounded illiterate as if they never stepped foot in school huh? Let me ask you, how many Oscar winners or nominees stepped foot in college? How many are High School drop-outs (Tom Cruise, cough cough)? Jim Carey has a 6th grade education. But because these stars wear Armani suits and speak in a tone you like, somehow their lack of education is more acceptable, huh?

By the way, the Screenwriter of Brokeback wore jeans, but no one saays anything about that. Now, Cher can walk into the Academny Awards with her butt cheeks hanging out, women half naked, half the stars stoned on God knows what, but hold up! Let’s attack Three 6 Mafia for being improperly dressed. beacuse you know these are the Academy Awards almost the equivalent of the Geneva convention. God forbid you dress , cough cough…GHETTO!!

And you say, Three 6 Mafia has never been anywhere so they would not know what class is? Guess what, they will be going to a lot of places now – places that you 2 Lisas will only dream of.

I think that moment was the most redeeming moment for me of the Oscars..ever! Like Jon Stewart said, those guys accepted the Oscar like it should be accepted with true joy unlike the other snobs who are too good to care. That moment proves to me that no matter how much rich people try to escape the”peons” of the earth and pretend they are bigger than life, there will be moments that equalize us all and remind us that we are all nothing..of dust we came and of dust we will go.

Thanks Three 6 mafia.

Can’t Read or Write:

Don’t you know, opinions are like assholes – everyone has one.

Don’t take yourself so seriously.

By the way, you MUST know me – BECAUSE I AM a RHODES SCHOLAR and a MENSA Member!

Lisa – ahhh, it is typical of MENSA members like your honorable self, who have been put on the spot to retreat to vulgarities to camouflage their momentary ignorance. MENSA will forgive you I am sure.

Thansk Lisa. Your true colors are become brighter by each of your posts.

Who said you were not entitled to an opinion anyway?

P.S. Can you tutor Jim Carey, by the way? (You being the celebrity blogs Rhodes scholar and all).

I know he dropped out of school after 6th grade – actually 7th grade to be exact. It did not matter before when he was making millions but I think now this may be coming back to haunt him – what with Dick & jane bombing at the box office.

Maybe a couple of readings of Sartre or Rousseau might bring his box office returns up. What do you say Lise?

Oh, just give me a pig foot and a bottle of rum!!! I loved it. The Oscars was great fun this year. Everyone seemed to be sharring the same little secret joke. I wonder what it was. Was it something like: Hey, we are going to make a quick appearance at the “After Party,” and then let’s all follow Jack Nicholson to where the “real” after- party (that no one is supposed to say out loud) is taking place!!! When we get there, we can ask Jennifer Aniston a million and one questions that she is not allowed to tell the press….even if we have to slip something inside her drinks. Ssssssh. Don’t tell anyone, though.
