This is the first time i do this post, but i felt i shouldn't let it slip away because somethings that were said last night are still sticking!
There were some funny words, some tear-inducing words, some others worth contemplating about.
Here's are my favorites ... after the jump ...

The story of a poor Indian kid who wins in a game show has toppled the story of a wrestler and his story of love, pain and glory. It also beat the story of a homosexual man whose life and courage changed history! Let's also not forget that it snatched a few trophies from a curious story of a man who's born old and starts aging backwards!
Now that's what's called a lucky strike!

It was such a joy covering the 2009 Oscars LIVE last night! It was fun and very interesting.
I wanted to thank all those who kept me company and who were following my updates.
A huge congrats to India and the cast and crew of Slumdog Millionaire ... they were the night's biggest winners!
I won't babble any more and I'll cut to the chase!
Here's a complete list of the Oscars 2009 winners:

Best Film: Slumdog Millionaire
Best Director: Danny Boyle - Slumdog Millionaire
Best Actor in a Leading Role: Sean Penn - Milk
Best Actress in a Leading Role: Kate Winslet - The Reader

The rest after the jump ... JUMP!

The red carpet of the 2009 Oscars at the Kodak theater was exploding with celebrities and stars!
It's always exciting to watch the celebrities and nominees arrive and to see what they've chosen to wear for the biggest night in Hollywood!
I was looking forward to seeing Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie arriving ... and the wait was worth while!
The super couple looked dashing together in a bow-tie & tux and a strapless, black gown!
The men that looked very classy were Sir. Ben Kingsley, Robert Downey Jr. and Sir Anthony Hopkins ... while Mickey Rourke looked different in a cream colored suit!

A few months ago, I tried to apply for media credentials for The 81st Academy Awards, but i applied two days late! It's true I lost my chance to get accepted and get press access, but that doesn't mean i won't be covering The Oscars LIVE!

I was shocked when my husband told me that he came across a leaked document that lists the Oscar winners!
I did a tiny search and came across another report stating that the whole thing is a hoax!

Best Picture

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Frost/Nixon
Milk
The Reader
Slumdog Millionaire

Nominations for the Oscars have been announced this morning and some nominees are not a surprise!
Names like Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Sean Penn and Kate Winslet were expected to be among the nominees.

I woke up a couple of hours ago ... I'm still a bit fuzzy! But it was worth it to spend the night watching The Oscars LIVE.
I predicted that Juno wouldn't win as Best Picture and that Ellen Page was up against huge competition.
Unfortunately, neither did George Clooney and his movie Michael Clayton ... Hard Luck!
But, Daniel Day Lewis seriously deserves the Golden Boy he got yesterday and No Country for Old Men is definitely one of the strongest movies this year.

No Country for Old Men
