How many people here are irritated at the almost substance free red carpet interviews? I do like that some actors are answering inane questions with on point commentary a la Taraji.

Desperately annoyed. Taraji and Janelle were refreshing for this reason. I'm not saying you have to get political or say something profound, but something other than generic, scripted question #3, and the guest giving the same stock, soulless answer they've given 280 times before. You can tell some of these folks are trying REALLY hard to appear enthused, but given that most of them are actors, I expect better performances!

Nicole's dress looks almost like a throwback to that chartreause couture one she wore in the 90's that got so much attention - think it was Dior. Similar neckline and shape.

The Tom years.  He demanded she be perfectly dressed, and she almost always was.  Keith just doesn't care as much!  *LOL*

Emma Stone wins points with me for having an actual hair style.  Seems the majority of the women got their hair done in the back of the limo on the way to the ceremony.  There are way too many messy hairdos, that sort of half up, half down thing

Question - will tonight's In Memoriam segment be the longest ever?  Should I add an extra 30 minutes or an extra hour to my DVR recording? Do we think it ends with Debbie Reynolds? 

I would prefer to see light lipstick on those who are wearing the nude or very light color dresses.  The bright red lips just don't look good.   They are like seeing a discarded coke can in the woods.  

Just now, starri said:

"At least I can wear heels now."

LOL!  Good for her.  I still don't like her all that much.

Ugh Robin Roberts is it really necessary is talk about Keith Urban and his acm nominations? This is the Oscar's and his wife is nominated he's here to support her.  

Nicole had just made a 'don't ignore my husband gesture' trying to bring him into the conversation before Robin did that so I think that it was fine.

Wait you haven't started the wine yet?  What are you waiting for?

It's ok that we are on opposite sides, I mean a Yankee and an Oriole?  It would be like cats and dogs!

It's a long evening.  I'm trying to pace myself.  Which is so unlike me...

 

(I spent the afternoon watching Spring Training games with teams I don't care about.  It was grand!!!)
