Lights, camera, action.It’s all about the Oscars this morning. And last night the big winner was the little movie that could– Slumdog Millionaire.
This movie is indeed amazing and deserves all the props. The film was awarded the Best Picture trophy. An amazing moment for the huge and vastly unknown cast. It was great to see the all the actors who played Jamal, Latika, and Samir. There was some controversy about the children who are in the film, it was rumored that the smaller children were not paid for their work. The films producers say the children who actually live in the Mumbai slums were given trust funds.
A very solemn moment when Heath Ledger was awarded the Best supporting actor award for his role as the Joker in the Dark Knight.
The trophy was accepted by Heath’s parents and sister.
Tariji P. Henson didn’t win an Oscar, but she did kill the red carpet in a tiered Ivory Roberto Cavalli Gown…
I actually liked Viola Davis in her Soild Gold Barbie gown. Just kidding, her gown is by Reem Acra. And I really do like.
Beyonce performed a Broadway medley with the ceremony’s host Hugh Jackman, great performance—her dress however was another story—she wore a Black and Gold gown by her House of Dereon fashion line. Not-loving-it.
Halle also wore Black and Gold… Her beaded Marchesa gown was stunning.
Alicia Keys wore a pretty lavendar Armani Chaffon Gown—but wtf’s up with the wig??
Jennifer Aniston wore a lovely cream beaded Valentino gown…
Jenn’s nemisis Angelina Jolie sported a black Elie Saab Coutre gown, and some major emerald earrings.
Loved Natalie Portman in her Pink Rodart gown. This may be my fav… And I think I could fit it–soooo Nat– hit a siter up with the hand-me-downs.
Queen Latifah wore a custom Chakra gown that was made for her in Paris
She sang “I’ll Be Seeing You” during a tribute to entertainment professionals who passed in 2008, including Bernie Mac, Issac hayes, Charlton Heston, and Paul Newman.
WTF? 500 lbs of weed found on Fabolous’s tour bus?
Even he looks surprised.
T-Pain cancells a show due to threats

Police Commander Leroy Bollers reporters Sunday that authorities will investigate.

Now the situation with Rihanna and Chris Brown is RIDICULOUS, because I am tired of FEMALES defending him. NOBODY deserves that. For a woman to even comeout of her mouth and even say, “she probably provoked him”, is a bunch of BS. First of all, for hundreds of years black people have been saying that stupid ass excuse. STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR THESE SORRY MEN. Making excuses for these creates a generational pattern, DUH! That is why they have these men who think it is ok to do what he wants to any woman, because YOU let him and excuse his behavior. He does not learn that way. You all can call him Baby IKE all you want to, it is not funny. It is embarrassing to us black people as a whole because we never express good moral support. By the way moral means, law biding and righteous. CB ur grounded.

Norega, you are wack. See if you notice, there have been some past Hip Hop artists who have used that phrase, “do you know who I am.” Well, no, we don’t because I don’t see your face plastered everywhere or your music on the radio 24/7. So no, I don’t. Now I remember who you are due to the negative publicity you got for yourself. You are a grown man throwing temper tantrums. Hmmmm… sounds like somebody is lacking something somewhere. Didn’t you learn from Foxy Brown? I think yall need to exchange numbers.

… back to the Rhianna and Chris Brown thing. You women need to stop accepting behavior like that. ” A man is gonna be a man”, that is a cop out. Stop creating baby daddies, because you wanna keep him so bad and you don’t want the other chick to have him. Where is your self esteem black women? Then the next man comes along and dogs you out because you are gonna do whatever you can to keep him, even if he hits you. You should have more self worth than that. Then you end up with another kid, bruised face, self esteem is worse. Your daughter sees this and that kind of life is all she knows. Break the cycle Rhianna.

Rick Ross. I love your music, but you outta pay a fine for taking your shirt off. Why are so many artists stepping to 50? Is it because they see how fine he is and wanna hate on the poor man? Rick Ross, you need to challenge 50 and let him be your personal trainer.

lol a number of the remarks individuals distribute are just absurd, many times i think about if they honestly read the publications and threads before posting or if perhaps they only just read the title of the post and prepare the very first idea that drifts into their minds. anyways, it really is enjoyable to read through intelligent commentary occasionally in contrast to the same exact, old post vomit which i continually see on the internet i’m off to play a smattering of hands of facebook poker farewell
