not a good look
A quick recap of last Sunday's Oscars: It went on way too long, thanks to a number of little extra things thrown in for pageantry -- the creepy dancers, anyone? -- and could easily have held to the allotted time frame if just a few cuts had been made in those special features -- the creepy dancers and the special-effects choir, anyone? And the various unnecessary film montages? Even the writing-tribute one, which I enjoyed, could have been left on the cutting-room floor.
But it was still a fun, if whirlwind, night.
I didn't get a chance to share with you my favorite fashion blunder of the night, though, and I just have to now.
The Associated Press, when they started running red-carpet photos, sent out a picture of a beaming woman in big square earrings with Leonardo DiCaprio's face on them. She was one of the many fans that line the arrivals carpet for these awards shows.
Seriously, you have to be one crazy fan to a) spend time making earrings with a celebrity's face on them, b) wear them to an event where said celebrity will most definitely be in attendance, and c) not only allow an international news organization to take your picture in them, but GIVE THEM YOUR NAME. Wow.
