The Academy Awards: A Recap in 66 Lines…

February 28, 2011 by Racheal

In case you missed last night’s Oscars, here’s a recap from my Twitter timeline.

Nancy O'Dell.jpg4:37pm from @NancyODell: Just stepped on the Oscar Red Carpet!
Me: And so it begins!

6:20pm from @stylecentsmummy: Mila kunis in lavendmila-kunis-oscars-2011-red-carpet2-400x300.jpger…
Me: I was distracted by the things that looked like her naughty bits

6:21pm  from @SharonHayes: Carry out ONE random act of kindness a day, w/no expectation of reward.
Me: Does that include telling actresses what to wear?

7:15pm Anyone else find it really weird without Barbara Walters? 

HELENA-BONHAM-CARTER-OSCARS-2011.jpg7:19pm   Omg! Helena, from the neck up, looks beautiful. And bathed! 

7:20pm   Hillary’s glowing as always 

7:22pm   Don’t you wish 14 year olds would dress like 14 year olds?

7:27pm from @theresaalbert: um have u seen 14 year olds these days? So no. I’d prefer 14 year olds to dress like 7 year olds…
Me: Fair nuff 

7:25pm   from  @jianghomeshi: Canada has just now imposed aChristian Bale.jpgrms embargo, asset freeze on Gaddafi, family & govt. + travel ban.

7:27pm   So Christian Bale’s going with the Jeff Bridges/mountain man after a bender look tonight… 

7:30pm   Reece is rocking the b&w ’60’s swank tonight. 

7:33pm   Um…Nicole you don’t need the hip padding…

gwyneth-paltrow-2011-oscars-red-carpet-3-435x580.jpg7:34pm   I see Gwyneth’s wearing her Austin Power’s outfit… 

7:40pm   or as @SusanCanLiving put it: Christian Bale? Or Yukon Cornelius? 

7:52pm   Seriously, Blanchet, what were you smoking? 

7:57pm   Love Natalie’s dress, but maybe she should invest in a hair brush… 

7:59pm   from @Filterologist: Dear followers who aren’t into, I
worst-dressed-oscars-cate-blanchett-435x580.jpgapologize for the mindless, snarky tweets that will flow for the next 3 hours.
Me: ditto

8:01pm   Jen Hudson also radiant in red 

8:08pm   My mom thinks Sandra looks tired and sad. 

8:11pm   Mom also thinks Timberlake’s mother needs a talking too… 

8:13pm   Mom wants to know who the short guy is with the Ginger Aussie 

8:18pm  from @HomerJSimpson: To answer every Oscar-watcher’s fav question: I’m wearing spilled Duff with splattered pasta sauce highlights. 

8:30pm   Here we go! 

8:40pm   This could go either way right now, but it’s not looking good …

8:52pm   I know I shouldn’t say this, but this is embarrassing & uncomfortable. 

8:59pm   F BOMB!!! 

9:15pm   Who’s bored? 

9:15pm   from @ebertchicago: I learned Melissa’s f-bomb was NOT bleeped in Canada. Of course, they’ve heard it before. 

9:22pm   Best part of the Oscars so far? The ad for Kung Fu Panda 2. We Will Wok You…

9:26pm   And the gloves come off (or go on) with the Charlie Sheen joke… 

9:28pm   from @35mmMonkey: I AM NOT DRUNK ENOUGH FOR THIS. 

9:37pm   from @thesulk: I always forget that Christian Bale talks like a 19th century chimney sweep.

9:40pm   Reality moment from @pmharper: Details on Canada’s sanctions against the Gadhafi regime

9:42pm  Brett says Nicole needs a sandwich and some more embalming fluid. 

9:43pm   from  @bitwhizzle: “you’re the “wolver” to my “rine”…” wow.
Me: Hurts, doesn’t it…

9:46pm   The sound, the sound, the sound of your careers dying… 

9:48pm   Mom just asked if I want some of bubbie’s old doilies to make a dress out of. Guess she doesn’t like Scarlett’s gown 

9:49pm   from @TeresaPavlinek: James Franco and Anne Hathaway have the comic timing of lettuce.   

9:56pm   “Congratulations nerds”? Great way to show some respect.   

10:03pm   Why has Kevin Spacey never hosted? He’d be great. 

10:12pm   This is like the Spider-Man musical of awards shows.   

10:17pm   We just hit a new low…

10:20pm   Kinda felt Oprah deserved a better intro. Kinda…   

10:20pm   Oprah’s false lashes are too long & clearly bothering her.

10:21pm   from @redneckmommy: Wow. Oprah’s boobs look like they could smother small children.

10:21pm   from @tinarasmussen: Oprah BoobsJames Franco's photo _Oscars Real Time_ Oprah!_ on WhoSay_Page_1.jpg

10:21pm   from @meredithheron: What’s wrong with Oprah’s face/makeup?

10:22pm   from @YMC_BC: Sorry Oprah, that dress isn’t complementing your boobage

10:22pm   from @ElaineOrrMorgan: Not a flattering dress on Oprah.

10:23pm   from @jojoey: I was waiting for Oprah to give the whole audience an Oscar!

10:28pm   from @jamesfranco: Oprah!  realtime
Me: Wow, stars take crap pictures too.

10:34pm   from @Joelscottradio: Oprah’s Bra wins for best supporting everything

10:44pm   And speaking of embarrassing, here comes Gwynnie singing…   

10:47pm   Jenny’s all like, I got an Oscar and hit albums and didn’t have to show my tits… Take that Paltrow.

11:04pm   “Triangle of man love”?? 

11:05pm   “Moral of the story is listen to your mother!” Amen! 

11:25pm   Yea Mr. Darcy!!   

Colin-Firth-with-his-best-007.jpg11:28pm   from @nowtoronto: Colin Firth’s acceptance speech is precisely as elegant, as articulate and as quietly witty as the man himself. 

11:29pm  ” I have some impulses I have to tend to backstage…”

    I missed the Oscars for the first time in as long as I can remember. Seriously, I don’t think I’ve ever missed them. To say “I’m bummed” is a gross understatement.
    I feel so… un-relevant. I can hardly stand myself.
    Le sigh. 🙁

    love this! I specifically left my phone in the basement because I knew I’d stay up all night reading tweets!!! but it would have been WAY more enjoyable than the actual show (which truth be told…I only made through the first hour it was too painful)…
