PenelopeOscar.jpgWhile Penelope Cruz didn’t win the Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in Volver, she certainly deserved an Oscar for how beautiful she looked. In fact, fashion wise, the Hispanics and Latinos stole the show.

Penelope wore a light light pink (fashionistas are calling the color blush) Versace gown that was fitted on top and flowed into fluffy full skirt. I loved the color on Penelope and thought she looked very elegant with her hair pulled back but I’m still unsure about the bottom part. Speaking of the bottom part of the dress did you see when Ellen was “joke” vacuuming she snagged Penelope’s dress?

10:54- John Travolta is presenting Best Cinematography. Dion Beebe won for Memoirs of a Geisha. Damn there were two Latinos nominated here. I thought out chances were so good.

10:57 – Jaime Foxx took off his shades to present Best Actress in a Leading Role. And the winner is…..Reese Witherspoon. Why did she kiss her man on the cheek? Was she so worried about messing up her lipstick? Ay I was hoping Felicity Huffman would win.

11:07 – Dustin Hoffman is presenting Best Adapted Screenplay. The Oscar goes to the writers of Brokeback Mountain.

11:13- Wow did Uma Thurman get blonde or what? She is presenting Best Screenplay and the Oscar goes to the writer’s of Crash.

I’m sure there is one more joke Jon Stewart has to make and then I can go to sleep.

I hope you enjoyed VL’s live Oscar coverage. We’ll see you in the morning. Until then.

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.

02.weisz.jpg Rachel Weisz, nominated in the catagory of Actress in a Supporting Role for her role in The Constant Gardener, has already walked down the red carpet wearing a very simple but very nice dress. Her stroll down the carpet has led to speculation that black is going to be the color of the evening. Also the word is that most mujeres are going to do with their hair what we saw so many of the artistas doing on the carpet at Premio lo Nuestro, updos and ponytails.

I was also watching yummy Tyson Beckford on E! taking his shirt off for charity. Que papi! Did you know that last summer Tyson Beckford was in the apartment building of yours truely filming a television show? I have the pics to prove it.
