estatuilla.jpg 10:37 pm – Will Smith is presenting Best Foreign Language film. And he just spoke Spanish. Why do they always make it seem like Latinos speak super fast and in run on sentences??? The South African film Tsotsi won. Why does he seem so angry?? You won hombre! Be happy.

10:40 – Ziyi Zhong is sparkling in her dress as she presents best Film Editing. Do you see how they group people all together? This is the foriegn portion. Crash won. Ha ha. The film editor almost forgot to give a speech.

10:44 – Hilary Swank must have the longest torser ever that or her boobs are mad droopy. She should consider something with straps. She is presenting Best Actor. Who did Joaquin just say he loved into the camera? And the Oscar goes to…..Philip Seymour Hoffman for his work in Capote. He just shouted out single mamis like his mami.

estatuilla.jpg 10:19 – It’s hard for a pimp apparently. That’s what’s on now. The nominated song from Hustle & Flow. Yo that girl just cracked on that note big time and most of the white people look confused.

10:22 – Queen Latifah on stage to present Best Original Song. You don’t think that was planned. The rap song followed by the Queen of Hip Hop? Ay so transparant. Holy carajo. It’s Hard Out Here for a Pimp won best song from a movie! No one thinks it’s ironic to be thanking Jesus about winning for a song about being a pimp? Now you know all the blanquitos are mad confused. See look at Jon Stewart cracking up.

10:25 – Wow Marc Anthony doesn’t looked cracked out today. They just showed him on screen.

10:27 – Jennifer Garner almost busted her ass twice!!!! She is hiding post baby weight under a really beautiful golden umpire waisted dress. I wonder if J. Lo. is laughing or if she did some brujeria to make that happen. Jennifer just presented the award for best Sound Editing to the King Kong people who have just been tearing it up tonight with tech awards. How many have they wo now three???

10:30 – George Clooney is introducing the montage of all the people in the industry. I am always surprised here because I always find out someone died that I had no idea died. I miss Mr. Miagi : Pat Morita. A ver quien mas….and Richard Pryor. And on that sad note….a commercial break.

9:56 – Jake Gyllenhaal is on stage presenting (with a crooked bow tie) and calling West Side Story an epic. Ah hah. Ok.

10:00 – Jessica Alba. She really looks stunning in that gold dress, pero se ve bien flaca no? She , along with Eric Bana is presenting the award for Best Sound Mixing. The winner is King Kong. How ironic the mic wasn’t working for a sec.

10:03 – Lily Tomlin and Meryl Streep are doing a really long intro to the presentation of an Honorary Oscar to Robert Altman.

TheMoonAndTheSon.jpg 9:33- Sabes que hace falta on Sandra Bullock , as she presents Best Art Direction? Lipstick. She looks all washed out. You know what Keanu Reeves needs? To be in a good movie. Best Art Direction goes to Memoirs of a Geisha.

9:36 – Samuel L. Jackson is presenting a montage about a montage of films that challenge tradional thought.

9:40 – Sid Ganis, President of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is giving the traditional long boring speech.

She is introducing Itzhac Perlman who is playing a selection of songs nominated in the catagory of Best Original Score. We have two Latinos nominated in this catagory (finally!!!). And the winner is, Gustavo Santalolla, un Argentino for the score of Brokeback Mountain. He dedicated the award to us mi gente!! Los Latinos!!!

estatuilla.jpg Ay I really hate Tom Hanks’ hair.
He looks mas viejo.

Ben Stiller (who reminds me of an ex of mine) is wearing some creepy green screen suit to present Best Visual Effects. The visual effects team from King Kong won here.

8:31 – Reese Witherspoon is presenting Best Animated feature. My daughter, la MaopucheRican is all for Corpse Bride winning here. The winner is : Wallace and Gromit and those accepting the award are wearing the biggest bow ties and put bow ties on their statues. Que raros.

8:34 – LATINO SIGHTING! Finally Jennifer Lopez gets her face on the screen. It looks like she was wearing green. We’ll see later when she presents. Dolly Parton is singing Travelin’ Thru the Oscar nominated song from TransAmerica. Ay esa mujer es mas plastica que una Barbie!

estatuilla.jpg Oh no. Mel Gibson totally exoticising Maya culture. Nice way to start the Oscars off. A little racism goes a long way.

Oh my are they totally playing up the gay angle ,riding off the Brokeback Mountain hype although I will say I would love to wake up with Jon Stewart and George Clooney.

8:07 – I haven’t gotten a good laugh out of Jon yet and looking at the faces of the stars as the camara pans the audience, they haven’t laughed either. Oh mira Meryl Streep is sitting behind George Clooney.

8:09 – Finally a political joke out of Jon Stewart. Oh there’s another one about Bjork getting shot by Dick Cheney.

8:12- LATINO SIGHTING. I just saw Marc Anthony’s cara behind Jaime Foxx. I did not see la Lopez though. She’s presenting tonight.

8:14- The gay cowboy montage is pretty funny I must admit. I mean if nothing else Brokeback has led people to analyze how much much homoeroticism is present in pop culture and that there’s nothing wrong with it.

Nicole Kidman is so white that I can’t tell where her ivory dress ends and her skin begins. She’s presenting Best Supporting Actor. Personally I’m all about George Clooney pero a ver. Jake Gyllenhaal looks yummy though. Yeah!! Jorge Clooney wins his first Oscar!!! Oh mira his speech is political tambien. No fluffiness here.

Commercial….I need to put away the left over pizza.
