Wow! Sarah Jessica Parker looked hot last night at the Sex and the City New York Premiere. I mean, she looked really, really good for her. The way her make up is done accentuates her beauty and makes her nose looks smaller, don’t you think? I think Kim Cattrall looks pretty old and Chris Noth‘s girlfriend/wife/whatever looks like a caveman… doesn’t she? She gets a pass because she just had a baby. Other than that, I’m not sure what her excuse is.

I would totally be going to see this movie on Friday if it weren’t for me having to move for the next two days. Let me take that back. I’d probably go see The Happening first. Mark Wahlberg is looking good in that movie. I also want to see The Strangers but I don’t know when that one is out. Either way, those beat out Sex and the City. But I DO want to see it. I hope Aiden makes a cameo!

5:39pm: Jon Stewart pissed off Dennis Hopper, I’m pretty sure. And before that, I’m pretty sure George Clooney was irritated for Jon to be talking to him. His political jokes about the Iraqi war was typical and, because of those jokes, I wish he wasn’t hosting. He was definitely pushing the Democratic thing and it was sort of funny but mostly annoying because the Oscars are about movies, not politics.

5:42pm: Jennifer Garner is the first presenter. She is presenting the award for Achievement in Costume Design. The winner is Alexandra Burn for Elizabeth: The Golden Age. She was previously nominated in the same category for her work on the film Hamlet. BORING! Let’s get to the good jokes, the good awards, and the good celebrities!

The first commercial break. The first of many, I’m sure. I wonder what those losers Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are doing right now? Besides getting snubbed.

5:46pm: George “I’ve got an attitude problem” Clooney is on-stage. He needs to learn how to read. Seems like he stumbled a bit. He is announcing the whole”80 Years of Oscar” bit. Seeing Julia Roberts winning reminded me how glad I am that she’s out of the spotlight. Charlie Chaplin sure looked different as an old guy but seeing the clip of him getting his Honorary Oscar was pretty neat.

5:51pm: Anne Hathaway and Steve Carell (who was funny AS USUAL!) are presenting for Best Animated Feature Film now. They came out to Get Smart music because of their new movie, Get Smart, coming out in June 2008. The winner is Brad Bird and his feature Ratatouille. This is Bird’s 2nd Academy Award.

5:55pm: Katherine Heigl is on-stage presenting the award for Achievement in Make Up. She was incredibly nervous and shaking, which I found endearing. The winner is La Vie En Rose. Now Amy Adams is singing some gay song from Enchanted. This is the time where I get up and eat and pee cause I hate this type of crap.

Second commercial break of the night. Hope everyone is watching these at home so you guys can relate to my comments!

6:06pm: And we’re back! Thank goodness that Amy Adams performance ended. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is now on-stage. He looks like a monkey! He’s presenting the award for Best Visual Effect. The winner is Michael Fink for The Golden Compass.

6:09pm: Cate Blanchett, who is a double-nominee this year, is presenting the award for Art Direction. The winner is the people for Sweeney Todd.

Okay so I was just reminded how little people care about all these awards as opposed to the big, main awards. So I will slow it down and update just for the really good stuff so that you guys aren’t reading a crap load of stuff.

6:16pm: Best Supporting Actor awards being presented by Jennifer Hudson. The winner is.. Javier Bardem for his role in No Country For Old Men.

6:34pm: Best Supporting Actress award being presented by last years Best Supporting Actor winner Alan Arkin. The winner is (I’m totally gunning for Cate but I’m waiting to see who actually wins it!) Tilda Swinton for her role in Michael Clayton.

Third commercial break

6:54pm: Kristen Chenoweth performing some horrible song from Enchanted. I’m so glad I never saw that movie!

Fourth commercial break but after that performance, we all need a break!

7:02pm: Seth Rogen and Jonah Hill presenting and they are hilarious. I wish all the presenters could have as much life and happiness as these two. Everyone else is boring. They presented their award to two hippies (seriously) for The Borne Ultimatum and they were totally lost the whole time. Classic.

7:09pm: Forest Whittaker presenting the award for Best Actress In A Leading Role. This one will be tough but I am still rooting for Cate B. The winner is (drumroll!) Marion Cotillard for La Vie En Rose.

Okay it’s 8:05pm and its been through seven commercials and I’m so tired of watching this! They just did the tribute to all the people who have passed away and seeing Heath Ledger’s name up there just wasn’t right. It’s so sad that he’s gone. Let’s hope the BEST ACTOR award is next!!

8:14pm: Tom Hanks just spoke and I wish there was more of him in this show. He’s beyond awesome. In fact, from seeing him I’m getting tempted to turn off this show and watch Forrest Gump. Seriously.

8:30pm: Best Actor award finally being given out by Helen Mirren after frickin 3 hours of waiting. The winner is Daniel Day Lewis for his role in There Will Be Blood. DAMN! I really wanted Viggo Mortensen to win. He did an excellent job in Eastern Promises.

8:45pm: Best Motion picture being presented by Denzel Washington. I wanted 3:10 to Yuma to win but it wasn’t nominated. No Country For Old Men was the winner. Hooray. The 3rd Oscar for them (the Cohen brothers) in one night.

FINALLY! They are over! What did you think of the results?  

 

Dreamgirls Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson has signed on to be in the movie version of the HBO hit series Sex and the City. She will play Carrie Bradshaw’s assistant. For those of you who aren’t bonkers over Sex and the City, Carrie Bradshaw is played by Sarah Jessica Parker. In even better news, Chris Noth has signed on to reprise his role as Mr. Big in the movie. Big is back! Yes! I loved Mr. Big but I also loved Aiden. Why did she have to cheat on him?!

Anyway, Jennifer will play Carrie’s assistant. The movie is beginning filming on September 19th in New York.

Jennifer Hudson won an Academy Award for her work in the film Dreamgirls. But would she have even been able to audition for the part if it wasn’t for her time on American Idol? I don’t think so, and neither does Simon Cowell. The bitter judge made a comment that Jennifer should have thanked American Idol–and the judges–for their coaching of her vocals. When she heard this, Jennifer Hudson said,

“If I’d been any better at my job when I was at Burger King in my middle teens, I wouldn’t be here either, so should I thank them, too?”

She is so focused on making Simon Cowell look like the bad guy that it’s getting annoying. And actually, I think she might just want to make him look bad for the hell of it. Because if you go back and review clips and footage of Jennifer being on Idol, Simon is actually quite nice to her, especially for Simon. So I think J.Fug needs to get herself in check and pay some respect to the man that gave her a face in the music business!

Proof Simon didn’t make life a living hell for Jennifer Hudson when she was on American Idol
