When the Oscars Get Good: The After-Parties

All's quiet on the Hollywood front this morning, as actors and actresses and their respective publicists nurse their hangovers, and entertainment journalists are left to dissect last night's results. Was anyone surprised by anything last night? I was kind of surprised that I thought Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin were really funny. And I thought Inglorious Basterds should have taken home the screenplay award. But other than that, absolutely nothing surprised me. Oh wait. Except for that incre...

The Dude Abides

This post is supposed to be about giving the gents some fashion love after three articles of women's Oscar fashion, but I'm distracted right now by the fact that Jeff Bridges just won an Oscar. I think his win may be the only time I've ever actually cheered out loud for one of these awards ceremonies like I was watching a sporting event. On to the fashion crap. Pretty much every man ever wears the same thing to the Oscars- black tuxedo with some variation of tie and shoes. There's not a l...

The Oscars – The Dresses (Part III)

I happen to adore Elizabeth Banks' elegant grey dress (above). It should be noted, however, that the opinions expressed in this article and the two previous ones are not necessarily the opinions of Evilbeet.com. Sasha's take on the gown? "Love Eilzabeth Banks. Haaaate her dress." Nicole Richie wore a beaded snuggie that showed off her back tatoos and Jennifer Lopez showed up wrapped in a mattress pad. I wonder if she and Amanda Seyfried had it out backstage; they're pretty much wearing mirr...

The Oscars – The Dresses (Part II)

Things get a little dicey in this batch. Vera Farmiga (above) may have had the worst dress of the night. The giant maroon doilies sewn together look like the fabric embodiment of this site's namesake (an evil beet) ingested someone's grandmother. Zoe Saldana wasn't faring much better. She either crawled inside one of last month's Mardi Gras floats or got in a fight with an ostrich in a Peeps factory... and lost. Anna Kedrick's gown was an utterly gorgeous concoction of flowing, diaphano...

The Oscars – The Dresses (Part I)

During the red carpet foolishness known as ABC's pre-Oscars warm-up show, one of the actresses -- I think it was Meryl Streep- said that she loves coming to the Oscars because she gets to see all her friends dressed up. I have to agree. I giggle a little bit every time I see Jeff Bridges in a tuxedo because it's like seeing my stoner hippie father at a wedding. It was a classy affair at the Oscars tonight. Charlize Theron,  Kate Winslet, and Cameron Diaz were particularly stunning (as usu...

Alice in Wonderland Smashes Box Office Records

I didn't see Alice in Wonderland this weekend, and I'll probably wait until it comes out on video. But it seems that wasn't the norm; the rest of you went out to the theater this weekend and gave the film the biggest March opening ever at $112 million for the weekend. That smashes the record set by 300 in 2007. I've seen every other Tim Burton movie that has come out in the last 10 years, so in a way, I've already seen Alice in Wonderland. My friend described it as  taking all the parts of ...

Sandra Bullock Wins Worst Actress

Though she's up for best actress tonight at the Oscars, Bullock has already taken home an award this weekend. Last night, she showed up in person to accept two Razzies, the annual awards given out to the worst of the worst in film for the year. Bullock won worst actress for her work in the flop All about Steve, and shared an award for worst c0uple with her costar Bradley Cooper. There aren't a lot of Academy Award nominated actresses who would have the good humor to show up in person a...

Ke$ha Wears Her Placenta around Her Neck

Her 5 minutes aren't even up yet and I'm already so tired of this Ke$ha chick. In a recent interview, she told a reporter she was "into energy." Not sure what the hell that is supposed to mean, but apparently it means wearing things squirted out of your mom's vagina around your neck. "I recently went to see a past-life regressionist, who is also a psychic. I wear my placenta around my neck every day, because it's supposed to give you second sight. I feel like I've had many lifetimes bef...

Amanda Seyfried has a Minge on Her Foot

And now it's time for a lesson in cross-cultural cursing. minge [m?nd?] n Brit taboo slang 1. (Life Sciences & Allied Applications / Anatomy) the female genitals 2. women collectively considered as sexual objects Amanda Seyfried revealed that she and fellow Mama Mia! costar Rachel McDowell each got the word tattoed onto one of their feet because Colin Firth used to say it on set to make them laugh. Seyfried added that she was "never really... a fan of tattoos but wanted to see...
