I won't be getting all dressed up or even attending an Oscar party tonight, I'll be watching it from the comfort from my couch. My Mother and I used to watch every year it was "our thang". We loved watching all the actresses and their beautiful gowns looking radiant and excited. We loved hearing the unexpected acceptance speeches from the winners.
I remember when Sally Field gave her "You must really like me" acceptance speech.
I loved it when Adrian Brody won for The Piano and he jumped up on the chairs and planted a kiss on Halle Berry, his reaction was so raw and unplanned...loved that! One of my favorite moments in Oscar History.
Who did not love it last year when Ellen DeGeneres hosted the Oscars, she was soooo funny!! I thought it was hilarious when she took the biggest selfie and ordered Pizza for the nominees.
Like I said, one of my favorite parts is seeing what the Actresses will wear on the red carpet. The above chart is what each Best Actress winner wore since May of 1929, when the first Academy Awards was held, up until 2013. 2014 it was Cate Blanchet.
This is a little chart that shows some facts and statistics about The Academy Awards...If you are planning a little get together at the last minute go HERE to print out your own Oscar Bingo game or your very own Ballot.
And if you'd like to whip together a RED Carpet drink go HERE at the blog Hey, Let's Make Stuff for the recipe...Hope you have a wonderful night watching the Oscars it is calling for rain today in Hollywood....but all the tents are up and I'm sure it won't put a damper on the festivities.
