Oscar Live Blog

| | 9 comments
Elizabeth and I are sitting on my couches watching the pre-show on E - and decided that we need to do a tag team blog with just a few comments as the evening progresses. So far Elizabeth likes Freida Pinto's dress, I'm not a fan - but I like Heid Klum's dress and she's not a fan. I see this becoming a pattern...

We've also decided that lots of the women (so far) look like drag queens.

- Question: Is it racist that Ryan Seacrest greeted John Legend (an amazing African American singer) with "Hello my brotha." Talk amongst yourself....

7:01 - Elizabeth likes Taraji Henderson's hair a whole lot, as do I. But I'm really loving her necklace! Elizabeth just claimed "I want to take her home and put her in my pocket."

7:03 - Not liking Amy Adam's necklace at all, and it's taking away from her dress.

7:09 - Amanda Seyfried has on kick ass shoes!

7:10 - Sarah Jessica Parker looks like a man. I bet her husband is finally happy.

7:12 - EDWARD SIGHTING!!

7:18 - Per Elizabeth "Sarah Jessica Parker's left breast is a lot bigger than her right"

7:33 - Ron Howard skipped from 12 years old to 85. He looks so old!

7:45 - Penelope Cruz looks like she belogns on top of a wedding cake - - and her boobs look very odd.

7:52 - Elizabeth and I both agree that Kate Winslet looks amazing. The dress, the hair, the jewelry is all working.

8:07 - To answer Jen's question - Eliz and I agree that Miley's dress is too old, and too big. (and I can't stand the circle cut out of the back.)

8:15 - Robert Downey Jr.'s wife is also a man.

8:18 - Elizabeth and I are not agreeing (again) on Anne Hathaway's dress. She likes, I'm not so sure. Elizabeth would like me to tell everyone that "Mindi is wrong."

8:20 - Our Oscar snacks for this evening include hummus and pita chips, celery and carrots and grapes, ranch veggie dip, brownies, and chocolate chip cookies. We're trying to eat the healthy snacks first so we can justify eating all of the brownies and cookies.

8:26 - Sorry Jen, no delivery options - but if you hire a courier we'll pause long enough to answer the door.

8:38 - Anne Hathaway has on a new dress, I don't like this one either.

8:47 - Angelica Houston....also a man.

8:49 - Tilda Swinton - - neither man, nor woman.

8:54 - Tina Fey looks amazing!

8:58 - Elizabeth isn't crying yet, but I've got the tissues next to her just in case.

9:04 - Elizabeth and I both like Jenn Aniston's dress - not so much the hair.

9:05 - Further proof that Angelina is an actress, did you see her face as Jennifer Aniston was presenting?

9:28 - Edward in a tux... yum




9:29 - Elizabeth wants you all to know that Mindi "squeaks" every time Rob Pattinson comes on the screen.

9:31 - Look Mark it's Natalie Portman!

9:35 - This guy is a hot tranny mess who is neither a tranny, or hot. (Copywrite, Elizabeth Finley 2009)

9:54 - I'm horrified - - Beyonce is NO Oliva Newton-John!!!!

9:58 - Beyonce is Whitney Houston sweaty...

11:07 - How much do I wish the foreign language film winner would have said "YA TA" in his acceptance speech.

11:30 - Is it bad to call Sophia Loren a hot tranny mess?

11:45 - Gina: Elizabeth and I agree, it's just you.

11:53 - SLUMDAWG!

11:54 - I want to take a bite out of the little boy from Slumdog - he is adorable.

11:56 - Elizabeth just suggested that I start my campaign now...New Moon as Best Picture 2009.

Elizabeth says "Thank You and Goodnight" I say "the sun has gone to bed and so must I"

What about Miley's dress? No comment???

Jen said...

Do you deliver cookies and brownies? Lauryl is in bed so it would be illegal for me to consider getting my lazy butt off the couch to come get 'em;-)

Jen said...

Oh, and I like Anne Hathaways's dress in case anyone cares...

Mark said...

Mindi, whatever Anne Hathaway is wearing is perfect. She can do no wrong. Just ask Elizabeth.
By the way, I just read what you said about It's A Wonderful Life on your blog and it is apparent that you have no soul.

I've joined in........great comments on the "tag team blog"!!!

Molly said...

Can I just say that Daniel Craig looked HOT! Not too hard to make James Bond look good, though.

Also, Ben Stiller. Too funny!

And it's Robert Downey Jr. for the win, but only in my mind.....Heath totally deserved this award....probably the scariest portrayal of madness I've ever seen.

Did you stock up on carrots and celery for me? :-(

OMG the comment about Tilda Swinton is so mean but true. And I think Sarah Jessica Parker looks nice.

I almost missed Robert! I had my back turned and looked back at the screen and there he was!! Tragedy averted.

OK is it just me or is Sean Penn getting kind of hot as he ages?
