Thank GOD The Writers Strike Is Over...

...and the Oscars will go on!

Oh the excitement, the fashion, the 4 hour long ceremony! Woo hoo. The E! preshow has begun. Ryan Seacrest is already annoying the shit out of me and I am going to comment just as much, if not more, on the arrivals as I did during the SAG awards.

Third to the Golden Globes and Emmy's (because lets face it, TV is kinda better than the movies when it comes to nominations... I mean usually the Oscars nominate a bunch of people that on one's ever heard of) the Oscars are my favorite and since the Golden Globes didn't happen this year and the Emmy's aren't until September, this is the most excited I've been about an awards show in a while. I mean I was excited for the SAG awards but the Oscars... I've just got one thing to say... GO JUNO. Although it would be wonderful for Juno to win best picture and for Ellen Page to win best actress, I'm pretty sure that the only award that Juno will be taking home is for best original screenplay, which is fine by me because that actually happens to be my favorite category!

And so I've decided, this is going to be another one of those marathon posts, dedicated to the red carpet and then of course I'll start another one once the actual show starts.

First and foremost, I'd like to say that Kimora Lee Simsons is a bitch. There's really not much more to say. And shes really not an expert on anything, so I think that she should just shut up and get off of my television.

It's also worth noting that I hate Jillian Barberi whatever her married name is. She's super annoying and is pretending to be a meteorologist which is super lame. But I do love George Clooney. I love, love, love him. I don't understand how he continues to get better looking as gets older.

Yanno who else I love, Steve Carell. He's kinda the best.

And Anne Hathaway looks beautiful. She's so classic. I love that.

Something really funny just happened between Gary Busey and Ryan Seacrest, which was pretty hysterical. And i love Jonah Hill and Seth Rogan. And as hard as I may try to not like Miley Cyrus, I do. I really hope her parents do a good job with her and she doesn't turn into Lindsay Lohan, because it can happen so easily and it'd be really sad for her to be a scum bag like Lindsay is.

Also, its really hard not to like Diddy. I really don't know why... it just is.

And Jennifer Hudson looks adorable, I'm really proud of her.

And I totally love Marion Cotillard, I have for a while now. Ever since I saw her in Love Me If You Dare. I heart that movie.

Simon Cowell, I believe, once said that the most amazing thing he has found while living in America is that American's have this amazing capacity to get excited for other people. That he's never seen a country that gets so happy to see other people succeed and I think that that's kinda why I enjoy the Oscars so much. I mean, my desire to one day be up there myself, is a huge part of it as well, but I really do feel excited for the people I am watching on the stage living their dream. As usual, Simon's right.

There's a half an hour of the red carpet left, we've officially switched to the ABC red carpet show which means in just half an hour the show will begin. And I can't wait!

I was going to stop commenting here and move on to my next post but really I have to make a comment about how irritating I find Samantha Harris. I think a lot of it has to do with her stint on Dancing With The Stars and how annoyed I am with that show most of the time, but also, I think, and I know that this is ridiculous, that her hair and how its awfully parted in the complete wrong spot and that really bothers me.

I also find it really amusing that the people interviewing the stars can't hear the stars and vice versa because of the yelling... it's pretty classic.

I want to hate Laura Linney. I really do. But then I see her do interviews and I just... she seems so humble, gr. And um... really could Javier Bardem and Jeffrey Dean Morgan look anymore alike?
Sorry, I just felt like I needed to bring that up. Moving on... the ceremony is going to start in 10 minutes and I need to do laundry so I'm gonna move on to the next post... YAY!
