The Official OSCAR Thread!

I know he said "This is for you mama" and "This is for Spain"
that was all I could catch.

Olive from Pushing Daisies!

My man Javier Bardem won for best supporting actor for No Country for Old Men!!!

You haven't seen Enchanted yet? She was excellent in it.

I didn't care for the dress... loved the ones she wore in the film better. Such beautiful, flow-ey dresses.

Why that song? Why didn't she sing, "How will I know he loves me?"

Kristin Chenoweth is singing "That's How You Know" if that's what song you are wondering about. Enchanted has 3 nominated.

 

[Imzadi]

Ah, Kristen Chenoweth (Olive from Pushing Daisies) won the Tony Award for Wicked! as well as a gazillion other Tony Awards.

That makes sense. I'd hate to be (Amy Adams) nominated for an Oscar & then have to worry about & rehearse a full production number, too. I'd have enough to do, just picking out my Oscar gown!

Sorry for massacring the name of the song: "That's How You Know". I only know it from watching the movie.

Vote for funniest John Stewart line: "Helen Mirren you just got served!"

 

[Mady/Sophiemom]

Nice to see Owen Wilson. I hadn't seen him on anything since his hospital stay.

 

[amyhughes]

That was a shocker! Tild Swinton! I had Cate Blanchett.

 

[Imzadi]

Tilda & George are teaming up again in another film, Burn After Reading. Good thing he got her before this, as her fee probably just went up.

Anyone who can make George Clooney blush is aces in my book! He apparently is a first class on the set joker, so I have a feeling that was a bit of payback!

 

[CourtasanSatine]

James McAvoy's accent *thud*

ETA: Coens just won!

 

[Sonya]

DH just told me that he was watching the red carpet part but they were interviewing Jessica Alba and Ryan Seacrest asked her if she was going to breastfeed and she said "That is a very personal question".
Way to go Jessica!!!!!

 

[Imzadi]

Anyone who can make George Clooney blush is aces in my book!

I'm working on it...

 

[CourtasanSatine]

Miley Cryus is just adorable in that dress

 

[amyhughes]

Yay! Kristen Chenoweth! She rocks!

 

[Lintasare]

I am not afraid to say...Josh Brolin is HOT!

He looks good for his age...whatever it is.

 

[Imzadi]

Was that Jamaican guy singing, the same one as in the movie? He sounds the same. That must be such a hoot for him. He has one small song in the film, then lands on the Oscars to sing it.

 

[Minnie_me]

Yay! Kristen Chenoweth! She rocks!

Yeah, she does. BUT -- why was she singing that song??? She wasn't in the movie. Amy Adams sang it, and obviously amy is there tonight. Anyone know why Kristen sang??

 

[amyhughes]

Dunno.

Probably due to the fact that having 3 songs to sing with full staging would be daunting to anyone.

 

[amyhughes]

Second surprise to me tonight, Marion Catillard over Julie Christie. I thought that was a lock!
