And The Oscar Goes To...

For those of you with cablevision and were oh so upset to miss the Oscars on Sunday night, don't fret, you didn't miss much. Although I love all award shows, the Oscars are the only one I choose to Tivo so that I can fast forward through pretty much all of it except for Best Actor, Best Actress and Best Picture. I know I can just look on the internet the next day but it sucks the joy out of it for a person who's obsessed with television, such as myself.

What I was generally surprised with was just how hysterical Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin truly were. Normally the Oscar's hosts attempt at being funny but we just laugh at how not funny they really are. My roommates and I were laughing so loud at everything the two funny hosts said and when they referenced the "threesome" they had with Meryl Streep in "It's Complicated," I fell on the floor laughing. Many of the winners were predictable considering they all won previously for the same nomination in different award shows such as the SAG Awards.

I honestly was overjoyed when Sandra Bullock won for Best Actress for "The Blind Side," because she truly deserved it with such a great dramatic performance that blew everyone away and made them think twice about Sandra's acting career. I even cried like a baby during her emotional speech, especially the part when she thanked her mother and the cameras showed her husband choking up with tears; I went through at least 40 tissues.

I usually enjoy the fashion at the Oscars as well but there were only a few mentionables that I thought were worthy of a "Best Dressed" award. I thought that Miley Cyrus looked absolutely breath-taking and so grown up in her dress and I also really loved Carey Mulligan's black, crystal-studded Prada dress as well.

The only way I think I'll tune in next year is if Martin and Baldwin return again as hosts to make me cry from laughing so hard.
