So, here is what you need to know from the 83rd Annual Academy Awards:
1) One of the most boring Award Shows yet
2) I think that Today.com said it right "James Franko and Anne Hathaway may be brilliant actors, but Oscar hosts? Perhaps not quite as fantastic."
3) My eyes began to shut at 10:30pm which resulted in me "Googling" the final winners that were announced at the end of the night. The were as follows:
Best Actress in a Leading Role went to Natalie Portman for "Black Swan"
Best Actor in a Leading Role went to Colin Firth for "The King's Speech"
Best Picture went to "The King's Speech"
....both of those movie's I have yet to see.
4) I think the best presenter of the evening was Oprah Winfrey. Very poised and captured the audience from the moment she began speaking. I know she has a lot of practice, but at an award show like this you want the best of the best.
5) Upon accepting her award for Best Supporting Actress in "The Fighter,"Melissa Leo dropped the F-bomb. You know it was a slow night when that was one of the high lights.
6) Best Dressed (based on my personal opinion) goes to Gwyneth Paltrow who wore Calvin Klein with simple accents of Louis Vuitton jewelry, and Award Show host Anne Hathaway. Even though her performance during the night was not the best, I think she looked stunning on the red carpet in her red Valentino gown.
7) Worst dressed (based on my personal opinion) goes to Amy Adams. Amy chose to wear a midnight blue, sequence L'Wren Scott gown, and on top of all the glitz, she accessorized with a heavy combination of emerald and diamond jewelry. I believe the gown stands out on it's own in a very dominant way, so adding big bling was not appealing to me. I was also not a fan of her hair style, as it only added confusion to the over all look.
Hmm, what else...I think that sums the evening up. Hope next year is better.
