Ellen said if it weren't for Jews, blacks and gays, there would be no movies...
wonderful gown
does anyone ever see the short animated s? where do you see them?
that is a great movie
DON'T do it...Britney said she shaved her head because of hair extensions...she also said she had head lice so I don't know if they are related...
Is everything about race?
I would love to see "West Bank Story." Sound great!
I know, wish it were not so. They look wonderful on the people who use them.
Brit shaved her head because she was so drugged out she was on the edge.
Terrific. And yet it's white Christians, who for the most part, buy tickets for these movies.
Actually she said there would be no Oscars.
Yes, I stand corrected...she said there would be no Oscars and there would no one named Oscar either...
So did most of the Hollyweird crowd arrive via Toyota Prius? I saw a fleet of hybrids dropping off stars during the red carpet segment. What a bunch of hypocrites.. I'm sure most of them arrived in the LA area via private Gulfstream jet...
The Oscar telecast has been steadily losing viewers also...
I thought it started at 8 pm but it started at 7:30 pm.
My wife is going to kill me if she missed Best Supporting Actress (she want Hudson to win)...
Have they done it yet?
Did Jesse Jackson just do a voice-over for the black man accepting the award for Dreamgirls?
I'm sure of that, especially last year when several presenters complained about the growth of DVD sales.
The viewership among FReepers is so low, we can't even get good flame wars started. One hour into the show and less than 300 posts. This is embarrassingly slow!
Hi Dolly! Any winners yet?
Seems that way, particularly among Freepers. :)
