Yup, that's me. Had a full weekend planned, but after a severe sunburn on the gut and entirely too many trips to the gym this last week, I found myself passed out more than awake. Also, I am playing a little guessing game with myself on whether or not this quasi-case of flu-like symptoms will fully consume me this week, but I guess better now rather than three weeks from now.
One thing I did get out of my bout of laziness was motivation to lie on the couch and watch the Oscars. Somehow whenever Angelina's name is mentioned a sea of awkward comments and actions follow. Miley Cyrus had a good one - she is a tool, by the way, how is she even famous? - when she mentioned that she wanted Angelina to adopt her. Really isn't it enought to be the daughter of Billy Ray - Let's not start on this strange father/daughter relationship. Knowing how my father reacted to certain choices I made at the age of 15, he indubitably wouldn't have let me parade down a red carpet with my ta-ta's hanging out. But I digress.
The second awkward moment of the night was that Jennifer Aniston was a presenter. Period. What is wrong with this woman? Does she seem completely off her rocker to anyone else? And what was with the shots to Angelina during this presentation...yes, yes, I realize that she was co-presenting with Angelina's Kung Fu Panda co-star, but could we have picked a more unbalanced duo? We had the comedic (some may disagree with my choice of words here but...) genius of Jack Black (have you ever seen Saving Silverman? Come on!) with the unexciting, tanning booth addicted, crazy mess that Jennifer Aniston has become. Is Hollywood truly hurting enough to drive gossip by pairing Jen with Jack, when they knew Angie and Jack starred together in a movie that was being presented as an Oscar nominee...I was really turned off by this.
Whatever happened to old Hollywood? Glamorous Hollywood? Classy Hollywood?

I miss Contract Hollywood. I miss "Rachel". I miss scary Angelina, the one who kisses her brother and wears a vial of blood as a necklace. I miss life before Hannah Montana. Seriously, watching anything Miley/Hannah related makes me want to stick a pen in my eye. I thought Hugh Jackman was good though. I'll never look a Wolverine the same way again...
I agree. And what's with the actors using every single stage they step onto as a political stage for them to voice their opinion? ahem...Sean Penn. And why does everyone think that Mickey Rourke has somehow made a comeback? Wasn't he in the popular films of Domino and Sin City in just the last couple years? He's made a movie every year for the last 10 years...in my book that means he's been working. Hollywood just makes something out of nothing and get's paid millions of dollars for it. Goes to show where the American public's money goes to! sheesh.
