Academy Awards/Oscars Pre-Cum and Red Carpet Thread

Carpet is champagne this year not red.

What story will he be telling with his fashion? I hope he has the best night!

How is Jimmy Kimmel hosting again? I thought he was finished with it for good and they were doing away with the idea of a single host.

[quote] they were doing away with the idea of a single host

That idea got slapped away.

Will you be watching E!

Will Timmy be there?

I am watching E!. Brandon Fraser now

Is there an Official Oscars thread?

Brendan’s sons are so handsome

Laverne cocks had her back toothed deaf guy while she was talking tonight. How rude

R1, someone noted Friday on BBC America(PBS) that the Oscars have a broad definition of champagne color. It was tan.

*to the

Will Austin Butler pull a Timothee and wear something revealing?

WATCH LIVE: 2023 Oscars red carpet arrivals

Laverne Cox needs to be banished. She is literally the worst red carpet interviewer.

You said it R15 .

R13, he’ll present hole if it’ll win him the Oscar.

What is Brendan Fraser doing there already? As Best Actor nominee, shouldn't be be one of the people swanning in at the last moment? Also, his sons have gay face for days

This Top Gun chick has her tits out.

Sideboob!

[quote] What is Brendan Fraser doing there already? As Best Actor nominee, shouldn't be be one of the people swanning in at the last moment?

Basking in his only Oscar nomination?

Is that Laverne's real hair sticking out on the side?

E!'s coverage is so bad. I hope Giuliana and Ryan are eating popcorn on a comfy couch and laughing their asses off.

God Laverne Cocks. Annoying af. Can we have Gaycrest and Rancid back? Never thought I’d say this for anything else.

Brenden had a different pair of glasses on last week on TV and looked better than the Drew Carry black frames he's wearing now.

Brendan should leave the glasses off one night. He actually looks pretty good for a stocky guy in his 50s.

I wanna punch this tranny! Let me punch her!

Do you think Brendan Fraser would look better with his head shaved? I find his hair more distracting than the glasses.

I meant J. Lee. Punch her!

[quote]I wanna punch this tranny! Let me punch her!

She's not very good at it. She makes me actually miss Ryan Secrest.

People used to give Rancic shit for being too skinny but this Zana (whatever her name is) is so painfully thin it's difficult to look at.

Stream from AP. No interviews just photographers getting taking pics of the arrivals.

Is Timothee biologically a girl?

What does the pre-cum taste ?

R34, I don't know but he has a severe case of butter face.

I wish JLC has chosen a more colorful, sexier outfit. Even a bold power suit. Her beaded gown looks like something someone much older would wear.

[quote] Jamie Lee Curtis looks very "mother of the bride" - not bad, but the dress washes her out

The carpet is TAN?

Everyone looks mildly seasick.

My God, Harry Shum Jr. is gorgeous.

The carpet is NOT RED.

Why didn't Questlove discuss the mental health behind Laverne's outfit?

[quote] My God, Harry Shum Jr. is gorgeous.

And alive.

They call the carpet Champagne Red.

Harry looks fantastic. Love his look.

Why is HE there?

R37 she’s in her 60s. She went sexy for SAGs. Oscars is classy.

Harry Shum Jr. really has built an entire career off of small supporting Asian roles.

JLC just told everyone to relax

WHAT is the story behind your outfit?

Puh-leeze.

Elizabeth Olsen looked great and classy.

Good thing the venue isn't farther north or they'd be wearing their Wellies.

Jamie Lee went elegant...and safe.

Jamie Lee looked fine but the dress would have looked better in purple.

Why is this guy who is not Troy Kotsur walking around with an interpreter?

Will actual stars stop to speak with Laverne?

[quote] Good thing the venue isn't farther north or they'd be wearing their Wellies.

Like Julian Sands?

JLC is starting to look like her mother, which is not a bad thing.

That Top Gun girl looks beautiful. Simple yet very sexy and beautiful. Effortless. I loved it.

Fan Bing Bing might be in the costume category, but I like it.

I love Harry Shum Jr. Suit.

[quote] JLC is starting to look like her mother

At least she isn't looking like her fadda.

[quote]Harry Shum Jr. really has built an entire career off of small supporting Asian roles.

Well, it certainly wasn't built on his fashion sense.

How adorable is Hong Chau. Total cutie pie.

Any sightings of the Eternal Starlet herself, Miss Edy Williams?

I don't remember that girl from Top Gun at all but that Ellie Saab gown she's wearing is stunning. Love the color combo.

These makeup men from The Batman, woof.

Winnie Harlow. Dumb as a stump. Disappointing.

[quote]Well, it certainly wasn't built on his fashion sense.

Dude, Harry looks amazing. That suit is so cool. Not another tired black tuxedo. Best dressed male so far.

Totally agree R64 — love her!

R63 I love that suit. It’s appropriate. He’s Asian and I’m Everything Everywhere.

Hong Chau is lovely.

Apparently BSA will be the first award presented.

Finally a show where all the winners aren't already known. So exciting!

Actress, that is.

Everyone looks like a frightened deer in the headlights on the TAN carpet. Is anyone putting the arrivals at ease?

Fraser has that Bob Saget look.

it's Dianne Warren y'all

R76, I volunteer to put Colin at ease.

[quote]Apparently BSA will be the first award presented.

It's always that way.

Why is everyone so early? Used to be no one started showing up until an hour or so before the ceremony.

R80, nope.

Laverne has terrified all comers with her ace-bandage disaster "story" look.

The carpet is tan because some assholes from New York, affiliated with the Met Gala, decided it would look better. Fuck you, stay in your won shithole city.

[quote] Apparently BSA will be the first award presented.

[quote]It's always that way.

They switch around, sometimes it's supporting actress but the first award is always supporting.

I thought Marlee Matlin was Gillian Anderson for a while. Is this the age women start to use all the common techniques to look younger. They just erase their unique - sometimes their most beautiful- features.

Elizabeth O actually has a nice dress - a bit different and daring without looking like a hooker. Her face, however, needs an intervention.

Chloe Someone looks lovely. But hair is too tight I notice that there's a trend to make women look very severe by pulling their hair back so tightly they look like they're bald. Some stylists can be counted on to make women look awful and nothing like the beautiful women they are.

Jamie Lee - meh. Looks like she's waiting to be crowned. Sort of like Glenn in that Oscar Gold gown she wore one of the times she lost.

Harvey Whoeverheis Guillen looks like a fool. Fat people should never wear swirls.

Fan Bing Bing is going to be a very unpopular seatmate unless she loses the 4 seater.

Jay Ellis looks handsome and debonair. Though if those are sparkles on his jacket, he loses some points. Overall, a 10 or possible 9.99.

Monica Barbara looks lovely - dress interesting and elegant. Her boobs aren't exactly supported properly for that top though.

Sofia Carson had a good starting idea and nice jewelry and styling but it ends up looking like a 1980s stiff prom dress.

Lilly Singh is at the wrong event.

Ashley Graham stopped off on the way to her job as hostess at the BDSM bordello. Beautiful and dramatic looking but tacky and cheap looking.

Laverne Cox - the less said the better.

Vaness Hudgens looks quite lovely. Another 10. Who is she again?

E's coverage is just horrible; is there some place else to watch this beauty pageant?

R87, ABC is showing red carpet also.

Did Timotheé show any side boob?

Love Sandra Oh.

Timothée's sideboob is concave.

R89, just one ball.

Laverne Cox is dreadful.

Laverne interviewing the folks from Triangle of Sadness is really awful. She should step down and give the red carpet run down to someone with talent. She’s completely unprepared and clearly lacks the timing for live broadcast.

R87 Here's ABC...

Not the look for you, Mindy.

Can Mindy Kaling go away, please?

Oh no, Eva Longoria!

She's at that desperate More is More phase.

and I write that as a fan of hers.

R73 one of the supporting categories is always the first award

The carpet is pink, isn’t it? Maybe it shows off the dresses better.

When they finally disappear Laverne from the airways we'll know a terrible era in U.S. history has finally passed.

Damn, Eva, don’t make a false move, girl, or it’ll all come tumbling out.

[quote]is there some place else to watch this beauty pageant?

If you’re in Canada, you should turn on CTV’s coverage just to see what pre-show co-host Lainey Lui is wearing. 😳

Mindy had lost a lot of weight and has extensions. Her face looks bigger now.

Love Sandra Oh’s dress and Winnie’s. I’d Allison’s dress without the cape.

Ram Charan is hot!

Why is Eva Longoria presenting?

Who was the wife in the gown with the yellow skirt and flesh-toned top? She looked like she had breast reconstruction and hadn't had her nipples tattooed on yet.

Mindy looks gawg

Eva’s looks like she’s playing dress up. The dress is overpowering her.

R105 Because everyone else said no.

[quote] Like Julian Sands?

Speaking of which, would it be in poor taste to add him to the In Memoriam segment if they haven't found his body?

I mean, there's no way he's still alive out there.

Who's the KAWEEN sitting at the E table second from the left? Stop posing, KAWEEN. Nobody cares.

Sigourney = shiny and matronly

I prefer the champagne carpet: it doesn’t clash with dresses.

R106, I don't know. Though I didn't like the dress I thought she wore it the best way possible. Very few could carry that off.

[quote]gawg

You're a special kind of tard, aren't you R107.

R111 designer Christian Siriano?

Sigourney's dress is not slimming, even though it wants to be.

Are the Wayan's doing security, like do they have a slap committee or body guards?

Longoria is there because her directorial debut, a film about the invention of Flamin' Hot Cheetos (I'm not kidding) just premiered at SXSW.

I don't know why the older actresses wear such bland colors. If they want a pale color, they could go with a light blue or green which would look better.

Mindy Kaling needs to go away already.

What does the Wayan possess?

[quote] Sigourney's dress is not slimming, even though it wants to be.

Sigourney is slim as it is. She doesn't need a slimming dress.

Where. Are. The. Movie. Stars?

The black mermaid always looks so trashy. Who keeps inviting her to these events?

Eva, I forgive you girl, but, next time, less is more on you.

Kaling looked good.

What's up with all the white Greco style gold looks?

Did the ghetto mermaid bring her even trashier sister again this year?

Ariana de Bose has no hips

I just flipped through 20 pics from the red carpet, on the WaPo site. I didn't know any of them.

R87 I think ABC's doing a red carpet show.

I like De Bose's dress, but the back skirt scarf isn't needed.

Ariana DeBose is trying to feminize her look suddenly?

When are the actual "stahs" coming? I only see a bunch of nobodies and has-beens. And yes, that includes Jamie Lee.

The black mermaid always seem to have the same outfit

Longoria will be SAG president in 10 years. She's that type.

deBose's dress needed some editing.

The little mermaid’s date was adorable.

Antonio Banderas looks amazing. Aging like a fine wine, like most Spanish men.

OMG MY BABE PAUL MESCAL LOOKS SO GOOD 😍😍😍😍

Where are A list stars?

Where are you all getting your visuals?

DeBose and Longoria were wearing the same dress

Why is this black man signing behind the black mermaid?

Awww Halle Bailey is so cute

As bad as Cox is nobody misses Miss Shecrest.

ABC’s red carpet show is on now.

This Ashley Graham host chick looks like she's wearing granny panties

There's not much point in having him sign given nobody can see him in closeups.

R142, here is video.

r104, Mindy has always have had extensions or wiglets- she has very fine and not a lot of hair.

Cara D seem to be twitching on the red carpet

Careful, R135. Jamie Lee will cut a bitch if she has to!

R142, here is continuously updated still photos.

[quote] Sigourney is slim as it is. She doesn't need a slimming dress.

R123 Uh, no.

Whoever this Ashley Graham is looks like she's wearing three different outfits mashed up together at once and none of them looked good alone let alone together.

[quote] Why is this black man signing behind the black mermaid?

Because with her walleyes, she can see everything he's doing.

Jamie Lee should retire from acting and stick to clearing stairs.

Switch to ABC now

Sigourney is 73 years old. She looks amazing.

Jamie Lee thinks doing a favor for Sofia Carson will help her win that Oscar.

Is Sarah Polley like 4 inches tall?

As shitty as the E! coverage is, ABC is always worse.

Tiktok stars ….

[quote] Sigourney is 73 years old. She looks amazing.

R160 She does, in spite of her dress.

Does Miles Teller count as a movie star?

Why are the ABC interviewers dressed in black?

Miles Teller looks 🥵

Ashley Graham: Sarah Polley, can you tell me about your decision to wear a suit to the Oscars?

What a knucklehead.

Ashley Graham on ABC should sue whoever put her in that outfit. Just horrible.

Lenny has boobies.

Is Lenny wearing a dress? Zoe Saldana always looks so blah

R170 she chose it.

I'm stressed out that the carpet is this nothing color. Champagne my ass. Red is tradition goddamn it. Mary! I know. Whatever.

Something tells me this is going to be especially bad tonight.

Zoe is a very attractive woman. Idk why she always picks meh looks

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING

Somebody throw a thesaurus at Cox's head and get anybody else in there to do the interviews.

Is Ashley Graham (still no idea who she is) hoping to get Worst Dressed? I guess there's notoriety in that.

R174 Mary!

Andie MacDowell looks great. Glad to see gray/white hair on the ladies. Lol at Zoe S. trying to pronounce Cartier the French way.

What story are you telling us with this outfit?

If the jacket didn't flare out quite as much, this wouldn't be half bad. I've always like brocaded and embroided materials in formal wear.

Florence-gurl, that hair- NO

Flo Pugh has an interesting thing going on

Pugh looks ridiculous.

R179 she is married to an Italian (not American) man. She’s speaks with an Italian accent sometimes too.

Where are the real stars?

Pugh always looks ridiculous yet everyone says she looks amazing. Always.

R150, thx! x0

Sarah Polley showed up as Lydia Tar.

Why is that Mulala chick there???

Who is this woman in the red coat on ABC?

R186 you do this every year. Why do you even watch? These are todays stars with a mix of some old school.

Danai G, girl no.

[quote] Why is that Mulala chick there???

Is Greta there too?

I know, r180. Somebody should say "War and Peace" or "The Story of O," or some such wisecrack. I can't stand Laverne's forced vocal register.

That Malala cunt now fancies herself a film director. Three years ago she was Umfuufuu with a bone through her nose.

I don't know...I'm loving Malala's dress

And TikTok has a "favorite popcorn guy?"

Jesus Christ, ABC hosts, let the stars fucking talk, already!

I mean, Florence Pugh and other young Oscar nominated actors are our new movie stars.

Flo must have forgotten to change her clocks last night and woke up late. Looks like she just grabbed her bedsheets and wrapped them around herself before heading down to Dolby Theater.

I actually love what Danai is wearing

I am not surprised that Kimmel is hosting. ABC/Disney/The Kimmel show is all in house. Kimmel is even across the street from the theater. Win,win all around.

I'm surprised that the ladies of The View aren't doing the red carpet

Beige carpet is a major fail! Dreary.

Yes, r190, why IS a Nobel Peace Prize winner SLUMMING??

Why aren't they doing the carpet outside? Is it raining?

Ashley Graham is best known for being a TV presenter and model in the US, as well as a popular social media influencer. At the young age of 12, Ashely was scouted at a shopping centre where she got her first modelling job. and now, is recognised as one of the most recognisable 'curvy' models in the United States.

It's way simpler than that, r201. His wife is the show's Executive Producer.

[quote]Beige carpet is a major fail! Dreary.

IT'S CHAMPAGNE, DAMMIT!!

Is Jada allowed to come if she doesn’t bring Will?

Now that I've seen Florence's dress from afar with the hot pants, I actually like it. Very Cruella.

Gorgeous color on Angela Bassett, both her skin and the dress.

Ana De Armas looks HOT

I need a translator to understand Kerry Condon has a heavy Irish accent like that Saroise person

Jennifer Connelly came in cosplay as a Dalek.

Kerry Condon- love the yellow. I'll be working with her on Tuesday!

Riz Ahmed-

Suit by House of Goodwill

Flo:

Damn everyone loves EEAAO.

Everyone is dressed like trash.

R213, You get back here and spill! ☘

Malala in couture—disconcerting.

Angela Bassett's dress is not my fave

[quote] I mean, Florence Pugh and other young Oscar nominated actors are our new movie stars.

No they aren’t.

Ana De Armas

I just don't get it.

Hell, Julia Ormond had way more going for her than Armas.

And that dress is a dud, especially the non-color.

#OscarsSoBland

Jennifer Connelly looks so young

Who are the stars you’re not seeing?

[quote] Jennifer Connelly looks so young

I'm a gay man, but she is one of the most beautiful women I've seen.

Love, love, love Bassett's hair.

She's just so good-looking.

Still the necklace should've stayed in the vault.

Wtf is Julia Louis Dreyfus wearing?

Julia Louis-Dreyfus was in Wakanda Forever?!

Ariana Debose was showing some serious nipple; it's network TV girl, keep'em covered up!

Good for Austin Butler.

He kept it classic.

Austin Butler wearing cha cha heels.

I really hope Butler doesn't win.

Austin Butler needs to eat a cheeseburger.

Austin Butler looks cute.

Angela Bassett has said this Oscars season is completely different than 30 years ago and speaks highly of this race and how much love she is gettin. Were things very mean for her 30 years ago? She should have won.

I hate Austin’s heels.

R231 like I said. He’s a classy guy. Idk who thought he would be like Timmy

Austin needs a sandwich more than an Oscar.

Cara looks glorious but could have done without the necklace

Janet Yang in...Alcoa

My only quibble with Butler's suit is that the lapels are just a touch too wide.

Cara Delevigne looks beautiful

Huge fan of Florence Pugh and her look tonight

Austin has smoldering eyes.

What is up with these random sign language interpreters?

I am going to go see what photos our paper of record (as in denial as Muriel may be about it) has posted so far.

She just wants to have fun tonight

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

Malala looks beautiful

Cara really does look lovely.

[quote]Angela Bassett has said this Oscars season is completely different than 30 years ago and speaks highly of this race and how much love she is gettin. Were things very mean for her 30 years ago? She should have won.

1994 was a tough year - Holly Hunter won for The Piano, but Stockard Channing (Six Degrees of Separation) and Emma Thompson (The Remains of the Day) along with Basset were all excellent performances.

However, in the 90s, it was still a big deal that a black woman was even nominated for anything.

Kelly and Mark and Ryan do not look friendly together.

Love Kerry Condon's yellow dress.

Flo Pugh looks HORRID. What on earth is up with the stubby shorts?

Kerry looks lovely.

Ashley Graham is annoying me on ABC.

On ABC's coverage will Vanessa interview her ex Austin Butler?

What story is your tux telling us?

Steven Spielberg looks like he's wearing the same tux this year as he did the first year he attended.

I love Angela Bassett in the purple gown. And I usually hate purple.

Austin Butler is skinny as hell. Can he even pick up the Oscar if his name is called?

Has Tammy Cruise shown up yet?

R232, He can Cha-Cha right over here any time. 😉😊🥰

I guess he'll be interviewed by Ashley Graham or Laverne, because Vanessa would be very awkward (they would both be pros, but even so!).

Who was that escorting Julia Louis Dreyfuss - one of her sons?

No, r260. Jennifer Coolidge is his Designated Oscar Holder.

God. Shecrest on ABC. She's aging like milk.

Butler probably can't until this is all over.

Ripa is giving me early 80s whore.

He seems off …

Butler looks like he's fighting stage 4 liver cancer.

If everyone would put the closed captions we wouldn't need the interpreters.

Nothing says try-hard than wearing a wedding dress on the red carpet.

[quote]Butler looks like he's fighting stage 4 liver cancer.

R269 Butler looks like he's fighting to have a coherent thought.

Butler didn’t know what the hell Laverne was asking.

What r268 said.

Butler seems like he's somewhere else.

Sorry, that Top Gun interpreter looks like he's making it up as he goes along. Anyone who knows ASL can verify he's not signing gibberish?

I can't help but think of CliCHE when I see Ashley Graham. And I like Graham.

R270 It's symbolic, isn't it? If I were reading Sign I couldn't follow these signers. I'd have captions on like everything else I watch on TV.

Perhaps Timmy and Harry Styles will wear matching gowns.

[quote] Butler didn’t know what the hell Laverne was asking.

At least someone finally called Laverne's bluff when he said something like "I don't know what story this tuxedo is telling. I just think it look beautiful."

R267 She looked like bad CGI. Not human.

Only if she brings Latifa.

Did not expect Delevigne to deliver some good ol Hollywood glamour. Finally.

Is that Mescal looking like he rented the last prom tux left in the store?

Colin Darrell’s son is cute.

Give Austin a break, he did a wonderful job as Elvis.

The only interesting thing so far on E!'s coverage is that big glass screen they're projecting pictures on.

And please tell that FUCKING KAWEEN TO SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Geez, they all pose like they graduated cum laude from the Barbizon School for Modeling.

Jessica Chastain looks like a star. So what is she doing here dressed like this?

r287...

You know, it's too bad DL doesn't have a Live Chat feature for just such occasions.

Muriel...?

Nicole Kidman completely drunk or high. Barely able to stand up.

Paul Mescal looks handsome.

Paul greying already at 27. SAD.

Nice of Sam Waterston to lend his eyebrows to Miss Pugh.

Flo Pugh is Miley junior.

You can see Kelly Ripa's panties.

Pugh has a trashy accent.

Is Mescal sporting a mullet?

r290 Muriel can't even get around to updating the copyright date on the site footer.

Paul Mescal (whom I like) looks like he's straight from Tiger King reality show. Mullet?

Here's what Austin's "story" was, between the lines: "I don't suffer fools gladly, get it?" Laverne did get it, and dismissed him post-haste! Then Austin felt bad for basically mocking her stock question, so he threw Laverne a last "Nice to see you again."

[quote]You can see Kelly Ripa's panties.

It seems to be a trend...

[quote] Nicole Kidman completely drunk or high. Barely able to stand up.

The silicone in her face is weighing her down.

R293 not uncommon.

I wish people would just dress properly, with some style and classic elegance and dignity.

R298. Yes. It’s for a play he’s doing.

There was a cute twink with long blond hair behind The Rock to the right. Who is he?

I hate these fucking ASL interpreters. They’re like roaches.

R308 grow up.

She's been on every red carpet the past few years. I remember how awful she was at the Grammys. But, she won't be fired because..you know.

Love him. He should win tonight.

The mullet is for a play.

R309, you have to admit they’re very poorly used.

r307 His fluffer...

Wow. I'm surprised.

I actually like Dwayne Johnson's pink suit jacket.

He';s an actor, the mullet might be for a role. He's sweating though, he needs some blotters.

Ballet pink, R314?

Why is Laverne asking people if their clothes are telling a story?

Nicole and Keith can’t keep their hands off each other tonight. Like two teens.

Block R309 like the rest of us have.

As long as JLC loses, I'll be happy.

R315 he looks nervous. He’s sweating because he’s so nervous. He is new to all this and he doesn’t hide it. Part of why I like him so much. He seems sincere.

Did Mindy K have work done?

Sorry R309. I meant R308.

Remember when Nicole Kidman used to dress well for these events?

Like this number:

R315 it’s for a play in London

Is Danai the Black Marge Simpson?

Flo Pugh has an urban vibe about her

R312 Again, no deaf person will pay attention to these signers. They'll have captions on like they always do.

No Brad yet. I'll be disappointed if he's not there.

Nicole Kidman IS Patsy Stone

Hugh Grant looks quite handsome

Someone just asked Bob Eigers idiot wife what made her choose the dress she's wearing and she said "Well my husbands a white guy....as in dresses, white dresses'.

I'm underwhelmed by Yeoh's gown.

I'm sure up close, in person, it's really stunning.

I think the "champagne" colored carpet isn't helping.

Nicole is serving FASHUN!

Brad probably won’t show up because his movie was mostly snubbed

Wow. Hugh was even less hospitable than Austin! "Just my suit. My tailor."

Hugh grant was an asshole

Somebody upthread criticized Jessica Chastain’s look. I think she looks great tonight.

Vanessa and Baz, talking about "Elvis"! Whoa!

R328, exactly, so who are they signing for?

Hugh Grant tap dances around the fact that the Governor's Ball is the best part of the Oscars. You eat in privacy before you jet off to the after parties.

Baz. Stop. Stop with the face work. You're embarrassing us.

Even *I* have limits.

Hugh Grant looked old.... and great. Showing how no surgery and no makeup can be the right choice.

Baz Lerman showing that surgery and makeup can be disastrous.

YEs but everyone knows that Hugh Grant is difficult and she completely missed his point when he said it was like Vanity Fair and she thought he was talking about the party.

[quote] Hugh Grant looks quite handsome

I was going to post the same. He's giving off Cary Grant in his 80s "vibes".

Hugh Grant was an eye-rolling asshole. What’s his problem?

Nicole and Keith are so fake.

R340 It's symbolic (a MAGA would say "virtue signaling").... I've no problem with them. But they are not enough on to make a real difference for a non-hearing person.

Janae Monelle is just So Above It All.

Bassett won't win. I used to like her.

Luhrmann. But otherwise, spot on, r343.

R344, Or the magazine. In fairness, though, who in the greater audience do you think understood the allusion?

Angela Basset stunning. Purple works, who knew? She's a star, looks like a star.

Janelle Monae looks silly.

Angela Bassett looks beautiful

Does Angela Bassett ever look less than spectacular?

Angela Bassett, the woman with my favorite cheekbones.

The straight white male actors are usually the rudest on the red carpet .

What determine who does and doesn't get a date?

[quote]He's giving off Cary Grant in his 80s "vibes".

No he's not R345.

Janelle in Halloween colors

I’d have rolled my eyes too if I was Hugh Grant and somebody thought I was talking about the Vanity Fair party when I referenced “Vanity Fair.” He looks his age and great, I agree.

Selma Hayek is going to tip over.

We met Angela Bassett around 2011 in Macys on 34th street.

I actually met a few celebs within the short 3 months I worked for them.

Laverne is bad. WHAT STORY ARE YOU TELLING

Paul Mescal looks like the inbred spawn of White Alabamans.

Poor Laverne. This is not her forte.

To be fair to Hugh, fat panties girl was asking some really lame questions.

What did Hugh mean, the Thackeray novel? I'm not watching—just relying on you bitches for info.

Nice. Andrew Garfield's face seems to have settled after whatever work he's had done.

R364 no. He doesn’t. He looks what he is. Irish.

Hugh looked great and wasn't having any of Ashley Graham's pablum. When she tried to connect on the Vanity Fair thing (he meant Thackeray, she though part-aaay) it was the ultimate cringeworthy moment. I agree with him, but he was being a dick. Did you catch his eyeroll at the end as he escaped?

Incidentally, what the fuck is she wearing? What's with the fishnet bedskirt over a onesie and tubby legs? She looks good from the neck up though.

Halle Berry always does daring looks. I love that and she probably CAN get away with that because she’s so beautiful

Hugh Grant, ugh. A string of movies with his fake stuttering. Such a turn off.

R365 give up on that and switch to ABC.

[quote]Poor Laverne. This is not her forte.

Does Laverne actually have a forte, r365?

You make the entire thread sad, R367.

I'm a Kidman fan, but, to my taste, she never gets it just right on the Red Carpet. There is always a detail that throws the whole thing off.

I haven't been paying attention but is Hugh Grant in anything nominated? I thought he deserved a nod for Florence Foster Jenkins, he was effortlessly charming there.

Ashley Graham is terrible. Vanessa Hudgens is lovely

Who are these drips hosting the E! red carpet?

He mentioned he was in Knives Out or whatever that movie is R377 but I don't see how that garnered him an invite.

Michelle Yeoh looks great.

And wow, Jenny Slate cleans up well.

Michelle Yeoh's dress is boring. She looks like some quincinera mom in 1972 in Cuernavaca.

Yes, r367. He IS British!

Hugh Grant is just old, crabby, and seen it all.

He's on the job, has to be there, converse on TV, and doesn't want to put in any more than he has to.

R380 actually she mentioned it, and he said “yeah, for like 3 seconds”.

He’s a big actor in Hollywood. He will be invited

Every time I see Ashley Graham I want her to sweep that cape forward and hide everything, and I like her.

Wow, Pedro cleans up good.

Pedro Pascal is so sexy.

Cate looks like Nike Germania!

Now I believe Pedro is gay.

R387 that statement is so stupid. He always looks good

WTF is that Massive Gay doing with Gaga? Who is she?

Nicole was high on Ozempic and Botox

[quote]Now I believe Pedro is gay.

Yup.

I wanna Pedro and Paul inside me deeply at the same time

Who is this douchebag?

R395 you were just dissing Paul upthread…

And Urban's wig glue, R393.

😍😍😍😍

Pedro Pascal brought his sister. Thank god. I've had a rough day and I'm not prepared to receive the news that I'm *not* going to be able to marry Pedro Pascal today.

R390 He's a man's man.

Are we going to have another OFFICIAL Watch thread or is this it?

How does Salma Hayek keep getting invited to these things?

Wtf is Cate wearing ?

Tom Cruise is going into hiding tonight? Interesting. He attended the luncheon. Hmmm....

R397 I don’t like Huge Grant and Austin Butler’s interviews. I like Paul. He is humble tonight

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

Michelle Williams? Dress nasty!

Janelle Monae looks ridiculous

R403 Because she's a billionaire (via her husband).

Who is the oddly dressed ( like the West Memphis 3) on ABC, who is interviewing people? Last name is Feldman. He's got a weird vibe.

Cate Blanchett looks awesome.

R400 his sister is nominated tonight

Miles Teller looks handsome in his traditional attire.

[quote]Wtf is Cate wearing ?

Yardage, r404.

R406 he is humble… not just tonight. He’s also young and new.

I must say Cate has worn worse and I like turquoise.

LOVE Cate’s dress. Unlike Kidman, she dresses for her age…

Salma Hayek makes movies every years. She's been a movie star forever. She's beautiful and she's a billionaire embedded in the luxury fashion business. Why WOULDN'T she attend the Academy Awards?

That ABC chick with the black genadma panties just told Cate Blanchett she makes her feel all warm inside, wtf?

Cate's makeup is on point. Her hair looks like she forgot to brush it. The outfit looks like something Krystle would have worn to slap around Alexis in 1985.

Gaga don't have no titties.

Is this the official thread?

Is there an official show thread?

Nicole Kidman...Love that Joker!

[quote]Janelle Monae looks ridiculous

I like the orange, though.

I thought this was it!

Nicole Kidman's dress is hideous.

[quote] Are we going to have another OFFICIAL Watch thread or is this it?

Here you go:

Love Cate's makeup

Official Thread

Austin has a big head and HUGE HANDS. His dick must hang to his bony knees.

Austin Butler did better on ABC and Vanessa looked a bit perturbed when they switched to her immediately after.

Cate threw on a shimmery schmatta made of a shower curtain.

Austin seems like a nice guy, good luck to you.

Apparently, Cate decided not to bother because she figured she wasn't going to win.

Austin Buttplug's tedium sucks the oxygen out of the room.

Not only does Sigourney look like her face is completely refreshed, her décolletage is glowing and smooth. What kind of wizardry?

Gaga looks stunning

R419 Hayek hasn’t made a relevant film in years. She married the billionaire because her film career dried up. But to be fair a lot of the presenters tonight shouldn’t be there.

OK boys and girls take your seats and off we go!

[quote] What kind of wizardry?

CGI. You're welcome.

If were producing I would have Chris Rock present Best Picture.

[quote] Is this the official thread?

[quote] Is there an official show thread?

Disney must be pissed that the got clouds with their jets.

Note to God.

I think the link below is the better of the official thread choices:

That pre-show proved once and for all that Woke is NOT the way to go.

[quote]Gaga looks stunning

No she doesn't R438.

Never mind, this one below has more posts. Can we pick it and stick with it? Trying to follow two threads is making me even more fucknuts than usual.

That was the Pre-Show thread.

No, this was the pre-show thread.

So confused.

I'm going into double post default mode.

[quote]her décolletage is glowing and smooth

You call *that* décolletage , r437?

Aww the cinematography winner is charming.

Why is Jessica Chastain wearing a face mask?

Daddy Pedro.

Why did they not want a red carpet?

I deeply disliked Flo P in those curtains she was wearing and kept trying to open up to stick a leg out. Was her cooch overheating under so much fabric?

[quote]Why is Jessica Chastain wearing a face mask?

She's starring on Broadway in "A Doll's House" and took her night off to fly to present as she won last year. Just extra protection from Covid because if she tests positive it fucks up her show.

Officially the worst Best Song category in Oscar history. All five nominees were awful songs.

[quote]Spielberg's movie is about himself, total narcissist.

If he were a total narcissist, he would have called the movie " The Spielbergs".

R438 Gaga only looks good with makeup that tones down her harsh features instead of accentuating them. Only an 80s supermodel can get away with that kind of makeup and she certainly is not an 80s supermodel.

Speaking of the 80s, all the older actresses looked best tonight. Jamie Lee, Sharon Stone, Nicole Kidman, Angela Bassett. All looked incredible regardless of who won.

Queen reviews fashions.

I generally love Janelle Mona's and think she's gorgeous and usually nails it. But that was an awful lot of boob for the Oscars.
