Funny ass thank you speech

Congrats to Heath Ledger


The full list of Oscar winners will be posted, but I thought Heath Ledger deserved his own spot. Regardless of the controversy surrounding how he died, Heath absolutely KILLED IT in his role as the Joker in The Dark Knight. I really think it's one of the best jobs I've seen in my entire life.

Congratulations on being named Best Supporting Actor, Heath. You earned it!

Angelina Jolie loses her Oscar


Remember back in 1999 when Angelina Jolie won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in Girl, Interrupted, and then caused a huge stir when she open-mouth kissed her brother? Well, turns out Angelina actually lost that Oscar. She gave it to her mother after she won, who's actually dead now. Apparently, she didn't tell Angie where she put the statuette, because she can't find it!
I can't imagine losing an Oscar. Seriously, how the hell do you LOSE an Oscar?!

Hugh Jackman getting help with Oscar hosting


Hugh Jackman is a little bit nervous about his upcoming gig as host of the Oscars in a few weeks. He wants to make a good impression, so he's turned to director of Australia, Baz Luhrmann, for help with his opening monologue. Baz is helping Hugh set up choreography for a huge opening number.

I can understand wanting to make a good impression, but turning to the director of Australia? That movie BOMBED in theaters!

Oscars' Best Moment -- Gary Busey Attacks Ryan Seacrest & Jennifer Garner

Last nights' Oscars were a big ol' snoozefest for the most part. BUT here's the highlight of the night -- I LOVE uncomfortable live TV moments, so thank you Gary Busey for giving us something memorable from last night!!! (You freaky piece of human!)

Oscar Dresses -- The Best & The Worst

Last night there was lots of RED! Some wore it well:
(Heidi Klum)


And some wore it with bizarre long-ass gloves:
(Julie Christy)


While others stayed home and played football in their dress in the kitchen:
