Oscars 2015 - special for Kimberly :)
I think I must have been fairly underwhelmed by this years Oscars. It didn't even occur to me to do a post. I would guess that a big part of that had to do with the fact that the stupid tv people weren't showing dresses on the red carpet. They were talking about fashions, but not showing them. And when they did talk with someone, it was always a male. Hello! The Oscars are like a wedding - the point is the dresses! Yeah, there's other stuff thrown in, but the reason people watch is to see what the ladies are wearing.
I also had higher hopes for Neil Patrick Harris than what he ended up doing. So yeah, not necessarily feeling it this year.
It had it's moments, though.
I loved J.K. Simmon's speech. Thank you, sir, for not thanking all sorts of random people, but for showing us all how to thank the people who matter.

Eddie Redmayne was adorable.

I've always said that it's a shame that Lady Gaga's Lady Gaga. Stefani Germanotta actually has a lovely voice. She tried a little too hard to sound like Julie Andrews in her "Sound of Music" tribute, but given the way she introduced Dame Julie, I think that was her trying to make it a genuine tribute. I thought she did a very nice job, though she could've left her dress alone.

(I don't know why the clip cuts out a couple lines in the middle and adds them to the end, but every video of it did. Also, Scarlett Johansson was probably on the worst dressed list, but we'll never know because they didn't show people. Okay, I take that back. There's no way she wouldn't be.)
I don't remember what else I thought. Hobbitsister would have to fill us in.

Why thank you! :)
I agree about Lady Gaga -at least the singing part and the dress part. I like that she is very different, but also humble.
I should call my mom.
I like singing with Lady Gaga's music. :)
i like that lady gaga is different, but i think that just how different she is detracts from her talent.
oh, and another thought we had. hobbitsister commented when liam neeson presented an award that he looked tired. i concurred and added that he's looked tired and lifeless since natasha richardson died. so sad.
oh, and yes, chelley - you should call your mom :)
