Do those see-through-ish #Oscars remind anyone else of the bodies exhibit?

Watching A-listers grab for the pizza Ellen ordered in, guess they really haven't eaten in days...

Asked about his hopes for the Weinstein Co.'S lone best picture entry, "Philomena," Harvey Weinstein was the picture of confidence at the downstairs VIP area.
"We're hoping for the best," Harvey said. "It's a great picture and hopefully the Academy recognizes that."

Bc I played Dorothy in my Temple production of "Oz," the Academy orig. asked me to perform this. Due to press room duties, Pink took over.

Some reporter keeps asking winners who come backstage where they're going to keep their #Oscar , eliciting groans from the room every time.

My review of Ellen's pizza bit? It didn't feel gripping to me on any level. Philosophically I'd like to get to the business at hand.

The Italian director of “The Great Beauty”, which won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, said he wanted to make a film that was both “sacred and profane” in telling the story of an aging writer and socialite looking back on his life as he strolls through the streets of Rome. - Jeffrey Fleishman

Ellen Degeneres' selfie at the Oscars just surpassed Barack Obama's hug with Michelle after he got re-elected. #priorities
