The Oscars!
Quick question - what's the cut-off age for one to adopt a role model... or four? I'd like to be more like Kate Winslet, Anne Hathaway, Amy Adams and Angelina Jolie. For their respective strength, grace, humility and self-assurance... and let's face it, their hair and make-up team. The same can't be said for the formerly regal Sophia Lauren who for all intends and purposes looked... (fill in the blank because I can't think of the appropriate word).
Slumdog Millionaire - the little movie that won my heart and subsequently and unsurprisingly, the hearts of millions and deservedly so. It was stirring and profound but in such a subtle yet powerful way... I only hope the matter of taking care of the child actors from the slums work out in everyone's favor, can't imagine what it's like to be in their shoes. The kids' interview from the Red Carpet with KTLA's reporters was hilariously giddy and a joy to behold! I hope it makes millions more.
The show itself was spectacular. From the framing of the stage with dripping Swarvokski crystals to the dashing Hugh Jackman who out-Bonded Craig Daniel on this musical night, it was classy and entertaining with moments of sheer comedy - Steve Martin, Ben Stiller, Jack Black, Cuba Gooding Jr. & Will Smith. Low-lights: Jessica Parker's boobs. The aforementioned Sophia Lauren's cooked-up visage. Long speech by cinematography guys. I think that was the category, I had switched over to the Laker-Timberwolve game during that segment. The just as important but doomed to be boring segment.
Quick shout-out to the Lakers. The championship trophy is ours this year barring anymore injuries and Bynum back in the line-up. And could someone PLEASE tell Luk Walton to stop leaving his man open outside the 3-point arch. EVERY GAME!! SERIOUSLY. And ALWAYS WITH HIS ONE TOO MANY PASS! The guy's got mental lapses. It's unfortunate that he's used to the chorus of "Luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuk" from the fans that he will eventually mistaken the boos for sounds of praise. Just had to let that out of my system.
News Flash: Frances is back on the sports track... it's as if I never stopped watching the games all these years...
The midnight bell tolls. Ok fine, more like the sound of my biological ticking... but which one is more poetic? G'night.
