Oscars 2013 Oscars Most Overall Lame: Anne Hathaway I share with Lainey the trait of being an Anne Hathaway apologist. So each individual thing about her last night was, you know, not the best, but not horrible. Not terrible, at least at first. The dress. She will regret this sooner than later, but for a long time. Because By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 05:38 pm
Bad Style Oscars Worst Dressed: Amy Adams Did you love this? The only person I saw who loved this was the Oscar PR girl on Twitter, and um, she has a vested interest. Not only has this dress been DONE – on Penelope Cruz, on J. Lo, on Tina Fey -- but in this washed out colour, I’ By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 04:45 pm
Oscars 2013 Best Oscar Night: Jessica Chastain Jessica Chastain, I’ve decided, had the best Oscar night of anyone. Think about it. She wears the best dress she’s worn in two or three years, a delicate light copper with her medium copper hair and she looked spectacular. And she KNEW it, because she showed up on By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 04:29 pm
Oscars 2013 Most All-Around Awesome…Again: Adele at the Oscars I’ve been writing about Adele for weeks. You bored ? No, not like “U Mad?” Try it again, in an Adele accent. “Y’booohd??” and make sure you put three separate notes in it. Now, see? You can’t not laugh. You can’t not smile. She’s the absolute By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 03:37 pm
Oscars 2013 Best Oscar Misanthropy: Larry David Just – look at this. Watch it all the way through. Don’t make the mistake I did, which is laugh so hard that you close your eyes to keep the tears from escaping, because you will miss the good stuff. Some of which is cute, a la Amy Poehler and By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 03:29 pm
Dumbass Worst Human Impression As Host: Seth MacFarlane The thing with Seth MacFarlane is that the man creates all kinds of characters. I feel like you watch one of his episodes of his shows and you’ve seen them all, but let’s say for the sake of argument that they’re varied, at least a little bit By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 03:01 pm
Oscars 2013 Most Oscar Alumni-esque: Sandra Bullock I felt really strange about Sandra at the Oscars. I don’t know why exactly – I mean, part of me wishes she hadn’t worn a dress that showed side-bum skin, even faux side-bum that’s actually nude-coloured underlay. Her hair and stuff seemed kind of straightforward Sandra Bullock, so By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 02:44 pm
BFFs Oscars Most Supportive: Bradley Cooper Yes, I agree with most of you that BCoop looked kind of greasy, and not in the good way, with his hair all slicked back. But, unlike many, I’m a fan of the beard. Not just stubble, but a nice few days of mountain man. So he was already By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 02:03 pm
Oscars 2013 Oscars Most Underthanked: Jennifer Hudson Jennifer Hudson saved the Oscars telecast. That is not too bold a statement; it was in a really ruinous space there for a while. They gave out one award to the most predictable winner of all – even if you were rooting for her, it was a hell of a long By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 01:43 pm
Oscars 2013 Best Oscar Sports: Daniel Radcliffe & Joseph Gordon-Levitt Suppose you’re an affable, lovable male actor in your 20s who’s generally respected and considered to be both talented and kind of a get-along guy – sooner or later you’re going to get asked to do something that is a little embarrassing or has the potential to be By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 01:12 pm
Oscars 2013 Best Oscar imitation of someone else – Salma Hayek Salma Hayek looks absolutely beautiful. She’s stunning in this dress, even if the neckline reminds me of nothing more than a tree trunk. Can I say that and still be complimentary? I really do mean to. But the reason I say she’s an imitation of someone else is By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 12:33 pm
Bad Style Worst Oscar Space Case: Amanda Seyfried Amanda Seyfried actually kind of makes me laugh at the best of times, and though I thought the Jimmy Kimmel piece was really overdone, I did like the part where she broke it down dancing in Cosette’s clothes. She’s harmless, she’s entertaining at times, she’s pretty By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 12:20 pm
Gorgessity Best Oscar Colour Chameleon: Kerry Washington You know that saying? That when you dislike someone the way he holds his fork will annoy you, but if you like him and he throws his plate in your lap, you’ll still like him? This is how I feel about Kerry Washington’s dress. I love everything she By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 11:31 am
Aging Gorgessity Best Oscar Red: Sally Field You know, I know that red dresses are kind of frowned upon on this site from time to time. I know that the prevailing wisdom is that it’s impossible to do one well. To this I say you know what? We’re throwing out the rule book. Because Sally By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 10:48 am
Bad Hair Worst Oscar Audience Shot: Kristen Stewart Jacek and I were going back and forth on getting stills or a GIF of KStew in the audience, and ultimately decided on stills, because, he assured me, “you’ll still get all the grease in that shot”. And she is! Somehow, she is greasy! It’s not that her By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 09:04 am
Bad Style Worst Oscar Bow: Reese Witherspoon At first when I saw this dress on Reese, I was more than willing to give it the benefit of the doubt. In fact, my notes say “This is more interesting than I expected it to be”. That’s because, when I first saw it on the carpet, there was By Duana • Feb 25, 2013 08:17 am
