Sam Worthington’s myriad Oscar faux pas

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

Star of the highest-grossing film in history, Sam Worthington disappointed with his Oscars presenting gig on Sunday night.

Avatar’s Worthington made a very ordinary addition to poised superstar Jennifer Lopez who exuded sequins, class and manners. He chewed gum and was not so recognisable either, in black thick-rimmed spectacles. The Daily Telegraph in Australia claimed Worthington “left many cold”.

But the paper noted he managed to make a “dashing” red carpet appearance with his girlfriend Natalie Mark. When he was asked what he was wearing Worthington said: “Payless shoes and a friggin’ kick-arse suit.”

The newspaper noted Worthington’s response to the suit designer question. “Some bloke” was the response. Brioni was the answer.

Kathy Ireland hits back at claims she was drunk at Oscars

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

Former supermodel Kathy Ireland denied she was under the influence of alcohol while she interviewed celebrities in the lead-up to the 82nd Academy Awards.

The New York Daily News claims Ireland “served up some seriously stiff” interviews from the red carpet. She reportedly shocked viewers as she awkwardly welcomed Precious star and best actress nominee Gabourey Sidibe and Zac Efron.

Ireland was reportedly branded a “hot mess” on Twitter, while some Twitterers claimed she was in the running for an award for “best use of medication”.

Ireland, 46, took to Twitter herself to respond. One of her tweets ran: “No Red Bull or chemicals…just J.O.Y.!”

In a friendly tone, she added: “So many mis understood that the J.O.Y. was being invited 2 co host. Grateful to all.”

Zoe Saldana bamboozles interviewers

Monday, March 8th, 2010

Zoe Saldana bamboozled interviewers as she calls her dress the ”embodiment of everything I’ve been through”.

The Avatar actress wasn’t nominated for an Oscar but clearly deserved a gong for talking up her dress.

She said: “It’s yards and yards of fabric. It’s the dress that the moment my stylist and I saw it we immediately fell in love with it. It fits everything I’ve been through leading up to tonight and my whole experience in Avatar. It embodies everything that I’ve been through. It’s big and it’s colourful and shimmery. That’s exactly what Avatar did.”

Hurt Locker’s Kathryn Bigelow scores double Oscars triumph

Monday, March 8th, 2010

Kathryn Bigelow has scored a double triumph over ex-husband James Cameron and his blockbuster movie Avatar at the Oscars, with The Hurt Locker winning her best director and best picture.

Bigelow became the first female director to win an Academy Award.

Cameron was seated behind his former spouse, with whom he is on friendly terms, and stood to applaud as she was announced best director.

He smiled and appeared to say: “Yes, oh yes!” before the cameras cut away.

Bigelow said: “This really is – there’s no other way to describe it – it is the moment of a lifetime. This is so extraordinary to be in the company of my fellow nominees, such powerful film-makers who have inspired me and I have admired some of them for decades.”

There were few surprises in the main categories on Hollywood’s biggest night.

Hot favourite Jeff Bridges won best actor for Crazy Heart. The Blind Side’s Sandra Bullock was named best actress, as widely predicted. Mo’Nique won best supporting actress for Precious, with Inglourious Basterds star Christoph Waltz best supporting actor.

Megan Fox and fiancé Brian Green have called off their engagement and have opted to remain just friends. A lot of eyebrows went up when Megan Fox showed up for the Academy Awards without and escort. According to her, boyfriend Brian Green does not want to be her escort and would rather work on his music. Megan Fox must have read the signs which explain the decision to move on. This is good news to majority of the male species who are just waiting for the right timing to make their move on sexy Megan Fox. And now that Green is out of the picture, can costar Shia LaBeouf take it as a window of opportunity?

Megan Fox and Shia LaBeouf made a good pair in the first Transformers movie which was a mega hit. They have just wrapped up filming for the soon to be released Transformers sequel. Both stars have been vocal in their mutual admiration in the past but nothing went beyond their on screen love affair maybe because Megan Fox was still attached to Green. Megan Fox was heard saying that Shia is the best kisser ever. At the same time, Shia LaBeouf has also admitted how easy it is to fall for some you always see on the set. Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox walked the red carpet together during the premiere of Eagle Eye.
