Oscars 2012 Jean Dujardin: Best Actor imitating Ian Somerhalder He’s charming, yes. I am happy he won, totally. I love how much he appreciated his moment, 100%. And I know how much you all are into him. So I will apologise in advance. Sorry. But I am over his eyebrows and the eyecock and the face acting silent By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 04:16 pm
Girly Throw Downs Oscar Party Awkwards: Cruise + Beckham Tom Cruise did not walk the carpet with Katie Holmes. Instead, he went straight inside and presented the final award of the night, a responsibility usually reserved for a big deal name. Thank you Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol. Tom Cruise keeps hanging in there. You do have to admire his By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 03:50 pm
BFFs Oscar slumming: Cameron Diaz edition I’ll say this: I really like the Gucci she wore to the show. I walked past her on my way to the press room and the beading on the skirt as she moved was gorgeous. In person Cam really carried this piece beautifully. But I did not enjoy the By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 03:15 pm
Girly Throw Downs Oscar Slumming: JLo edition I didn’t hate the silver Zuhair Murad as much as some of you. Having said that...it’s Zuhair Murad. So not-hate will never become like or love. My feelings about JLo from last night though aren’t focused on her attire. How can they be when there’s By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 02:52 pm
BFFs Goodbye Award Season Gary And Sirius Black too. But hopefully it won’t be the last time he’s nominated for an Oscar. Hopefully next time he wins. For now, enjoy Gary on the carpet with his wife Alexandra and being delightful and awesome with Janet McTeer and Glenn Close at Vanity Fair afterwards, By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 01:17 pm
Style Meryl in gold for gold They showed a clip of Meryl Streep being presented her last Oscar before last night by Sylvester Stallone and she was in a gold dress that wasn’t dissimilar to what she wore this time around, as if she’d been advised by my ma the Chinese Squawking Chicken about By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 12:56 pm
Bad Style C’est la vie de George Clooney C’est la vie is what Stacy Keibler tweeted last night after George Clooney lost Best Actor to Jean Dujardin. If you use Twitter, um, can you please click here and read some of the comments. Someone actually accused her of being George’s “bad luck”. That’s really, really By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 12:31 pm
Girly Throw Downs January Jones isn’t boring on Oscar night As you know, I don’t care about who fathered January Jones’s baby. I should. But she is beige. You throw some girl sh-t onto her however, and, well, girl sh-t never sucks. January showed up to Vanity Fair last night. Jason Sudeikis, who was, at one time, rumoured By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 11:47 am
Bad Style I hate lavender/violet by Penelope Cruz She was very, VERY close to being named Worst Dressed. But Duana is taking that on with a rather controversial choice. You’ll see it later. I do loath EVERYTHING about Penelope Cruz’s Armani last night though. Mr Armani is missing more than he hits these days. Let’s By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 11:11 am
Quiveration Worst Organic: Colin & Livia Firth It’s so great that she’s all about green style but there has to be a vegan dress that’s an improvement on this one, non? I really do love Livia Firth. But this is an abomination; there’s no other way to say it. Happily though, her dress By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 10:47 am
Girly Throw Downs Aloof & Sister at the Oscars Let me start with the dress...which I quite liked. It’s Givenchy. The back is awesome. And so well suited to her aesthetic. I just think she couldn’t hold it up, you know? Like carry it properly. Her body has a small part to do with that, sure, By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 09:44 am
Bad Style Viola Davis: Best Oscar Hair but... And they say there are no surprises... This year, the BAFTAs knew better than the SAGs. It’s not that Meryl was a long shot. Of course not. As you know, leading up to yesterday, it was a RACE, a legitimate race. But Viola had built up so much momentum By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 09:24 am
Bad Style Worst Oscar Hair: Berenice Bejo It’s not that I hate this hairstyle in general, it’s just that I think it’s a terrible fit with the dress. Wait. Maybe I do hate it in general. Too severe and harsh? It just...did nothing for her. No surprise that Berenice Bejo was in Elie By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 09:12 am
Royals A Prison Bride at the Oscars I screamed in the control room when the pool feed picked up Serenity arriving with Albert last night. Needless to say, this did not go over well since there are easily two dozen people in there trying to produce a live show. But there she was, all tragic and miserable, By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 09:00 am
Oscars 2012 Anna Faris: American Horror Story at the Oscars It just reminded me of the black rubber suit dude on that show. And I don’t even watch the show. But that character has been on so many magazine covers and blogged about so many times you can’t get away from it. And when she walked onto the By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 08:53 am
Oscars 2012 The Oscars 2012 - Wrap-up We’re playing point counterpoint. I liked the show. I liked the pace. I liked Billy Crystal. A lot. Was it easy and comfortable? Yes. Will that be the criticism of it? Probably. But it felt...good. It felt like, as horribly corny as this sounds, if the Oscars refuse By Lainey • Feb 27, 2012 08:42 am
