Oscars pre-show chat

i wish vanessa hudgens wasn’t having such obvious difficulty walking in her dress
aaand, the oscars have forever been sullied by the picture-in-picture promo for “very special” girls next door
Lindsay: THE KIDS!
me: SLUMDOG!!!!
Lindsay: THEY ARE SOOOOO CUTE
Lindsay: Seacrest….he….doesn’t…speak…english
me: they think seacrest has jokes!
me: “he isn’t saying anything so there’s nothing to translate”
me: i wish seacrest had actually made the effort to get all their names!
that kid learned how to say “my name is…” and thought he’d be able to sail through with that…way to ruin the kid’s moment, seacrest
Lindsay: I know. He was so cute…he was probably practicing all afternoon
me: Awwwwwwwwwwwww
Lindsay: Ryan, quit embarassing everyone. Now he is mortifying the teens
me: they may as well have mom and dad hosting the red carpet
me: ok pausing to replay kid interview for pete
Lindsay: Did Ryan really just say, “John, which movie did you like the best? Slumdog Millionaire.” That isn’t a question, Ryan.
Lindsay: RPATTZ RPATTZ RPATTZ…
come back melissa come back
me: we r at the part where ryan said “what is up my brother” to john legend
Lindsay: I feel like such a fraud since I haven’t seen all the movies
Lindsay: Will you please catch up!
I want Amy Adams’ necklace!! She looks great!
Could Ryan namedrop “American Idol” anymore?
the other day I was filming American Idol…when we were filming American Idol…I heard you watch American Idol…
Chill Ryan, we all know you multi-task. Let’s ask Heidi who made her dress and move on…
Lindsay: I am having a hard time following the simultaneous supers with the interviewees’ names, the screen-in-screen shots, the “coming up box” in the corner, and the scrolling facts on the bottom of the screen. It’s becoming exhausting.
me: lilly kane
Lindsay: I’m not scared of her anymore because I’ve been watching Big Love
Lindsay: Amy’s necklace. want it. now.
RPATTZ sighting
Ryan, dropping the radio show plug now too.
the feelings of my Rpattz crush just came sweeping back….
full force. be still my (teenage) heart.
me: i think i’m almost caught up
are you going to switch to ABC at 8
Lindsay: Yes for sure
E! just ruined its chances of being my red carpet favorite by scrolling a quote by Heidi Montag across the bottom.
Apparently Heidi says she will win an Oscar someday because she is ambitious.
So far, who is your best dressed?
me: ummm..rubina ali.
not anne hathaway. not a good color for her.
natalie portman’s dress IS pretty awesome
Lindsay: Yeah, I am loving Natalie in the pink. That girl from Slumdog is going to be jealous of the pink dress
I was disappointed by SJP.
Anne Hathaway is so tiny!
And sparkly
me: marisa tomei is not very good at acting like she enjoys ryan seacrest’s company
Lindsay: haha I know! He told her she hadn’t been to the academy awards in 16 years. she was like, “um, I’ve been here since My Cousin Vinny”
me: the loki necklace is the must-have accessory of 2009
Lindsay: you know it

Lindsay: do you think jessica biel is on the phone with jt?

me: Actually she was on the phone with me
Lindsay: aw man, giuliana just said that too
now i feel lame
me: she was like, “does my hair look a mess?” and i was like, “yeah but it’s ok girl”
the glamastrator is the lamest
Lindsay: ron howard always looks so young
but in a bald kind of way
me: actually anne’s dress looks better close up. but still, the color washes her out on tv
Lindsay: the title is the worst part…glamastrator…i don’t think it’s had a title before
Lindsay: “I believe I can smell you” smooth ryan.
girls love it when you say that
ooh lots of screaming! who is it??
Lindsay: found my answer. brad and angie
Angie looks beautiful. Well done.
me: too skinny. stop shrieking giuli

me: i am officially bored with the red carpet

me: kate winslet probably has a good 10-15 lbs on a lot of these chicks and she looks every bit as gorgeous if not better
Lindsay: Your bored…I tell you bored…I just went and put on a facial mask and folded some clothes. And I LOVE the red carpet. I think I am just a little E! red carpeted out after GGs and SAGs.
I’m ready for some Tim Gunn
and by your I mean you’re
I love Kate. I want to be best friends with her
but Leo beat me to it
She is the best
me: great imagined conversation between brad and angie, giuliana
Lindsay: oh was that a convo?
me: (giuli pretending to be angie) “she’s like, ‘brad, where are you,’ and then, like, yeah, omg yeah”
Lindsay: all i heard was omg omg like like omg like
precisely
Kate’s dress is amazing
me: EWPopWatch Now the kids from Slumdog just asked Meryl Streep for her autograph. She hugged them and said, ‘You are wonderful’.
she should have said “i’m glad you’re not covered in poo”
Lindsay: I just shed a tear. that is so sweet
hahahah
me: i know seacrest is annoying, but do you think brad could have at least stopped walking to answer the question?
Lindsay: i did feel bad for seacrest when brad blew him off
I make fun of seacrest but he is the least annoying of the E reporters so I’m glad he is there
ok switching over now
Tim Gunn! Hooray!!
aw Tim looks nervous.
me: it is probably really stressful, trying to grab people as they walk by
Lindsay: Did SJP and Matthew Broderick separate for a while or was that just a rumor?
me: rumor
after the rumors started they just happened to be photographed looking happy together after some broadway show
Lindsay: how fortunate.
Why won’t angie and brad stop for anyone?
they could’ve just snuck in the side door
me: because they want everyone to KNOW they’re too good for the red carpet interviews
Lindsay: HOLY HELL who attacked Miley with the bedazzler?
Lindsay: yay! The slumdog million kids are back!
me: yay! and you know robin roberts won’t screw it up
Lindsay: the cast loves the kids!
you know what? That look kind of works for Mickey
me: i love that zac efron just said dev patel is a “great kid.” i know you’re not that young, zac, but the majority of your films have the words “high school” in the title
Lindsay: the downeys look good
Lindsay: Gunn is cracking me up when he reads the teleprompter
“Angelina is like one of my favorite people of all history”
Miley’s words. not mine.
me: glad miley cyrus has that bow on her sash to glitz up the dress a little
i was just about to quote that. wow.
although i thought she said favorite person, not one of
Lindsay: perhaps she did
even better
you think those kids will be able to stay awake til the end?
i can barely do that but that is when their movie will be called as winner
me: i think so. they’re on the west coast
Lindsay: oh right. time zones. i forgot. Man, the west coast is so lucky.
me: ohhh good accounting montage…something i thought i would never say. i love everything about this.
Lindsay: agreed. best montage ever.
me: what is up with penelope’s bangs?
Lindsay: I don’t know but I like her dress. The Oscar countdown is making me anxious, like I should be doing something to prepare.
