Academy Awards

We were watching the "E!" pregame, and it's so obnoxious I have to mute the television. First of all, the guy asks the most inane, idiotic questions. He asked Leonardo DiCaprio three times in a row what he would say if he won tonight. Leo kept saying, "I don't know, you'll have to find out." And the idiot would go, "Come on, just a little bit. Come on." It's the most awkward night on TV.

That being said - these fucking stars could stand to be a little more gracious with the little people who stick microphones in their face on this night, of all nights. I know it's obnoxious. I know the questions are idiotic. But these are extremely bright and talented people who usually have a lot of thoughts. And they sit there and give one-word grunts like they're the kid in the back of the high school English class. It just pisses me off. These people are making millions per picture, much of it because of spectacles like the Oscars and the nation's obsession with celebrity, but they can't lower themselves on this one night to treat someone on live TV with a shred of dignity? They'd rather just leave them hanging there and be totally stand-office and a prick/bitch?

 

Patricia Field's dress was quite smashing, as well.

I thought the same thing. However, if the dress was darker it would have made her look even pastier.

 

Nah PC is not JDV's type. Too small, I would break her - more of a Denise Richards, Demi Moore, Jessica Biel type. Of course Carmen Electra is small as well, but is so hot we will make an exception.

Anyway, interesting that you start this thread 21 - JDV as a master of pop culture is going to have a video special later covering the awards in JDV special style.

I am trying to reach Rok now to join in - any SJ's that want to join the fun PM me and I will give you my digits to dial in.

This is going to be solid!!

Are you looking at Lisa Ling? She's been in Ghana for National Geographic. Maybe she contracted scurvy.

 

um, pringle, the stars being interviewed aren't all that bright -- at least many of them. and some of the questions are so vapid, what can you expect. seacrest is a moron. 8)

 

That made me laugh out loud.

 

She's worn dark colors before and looked lovely. Maybe if had been less of ice cream color?

 

Apparently. Someone called her Lisa.

 

I like this opening thing with the nominees.

 

Oh, I think most of them are bright. Acting is a fairly intellectual pursuit. I just think they show little grace when they treat people that way on the red carpet, even if the people are morons.
