Oscars 2020

For local TV stations, the number of minutes it goes long can mean a lot of money.  They are selling sponsorship packages many of which include spots in the post-show after late news. Many of those advertisers have cutoff times where they will not pay for spots if they air too late.  So if an advertiser says a spot at 1215 is okay, but a spot at 1230 won't get paid for, the difference of those few minutes can cost good money!  
That said, there are a lot of better ways they can manage time running over other than cutting off winners of the biggest prize of the night.  They could have not had the guy from 1917 in the balcony saying nothing and dragging it out. They could have been proud that jokes from Wiig/Rudolph and Ferrel / Dreyfus worked well on each of their first awards so they didn't need to do another comedy bit going into their second awards. They could have not had Eminem perform a song that won nearly 20 years ago and was irrelevant to tonight's show. Or crazy idea - since the red carpet show is difficult to produce now that it's not cool to ask what people are wearing, they could just start the show at 7 instead of 8! 

The dress was over the top, but I do think that had someone like Angelina Jolie or JLo had showed up in it, people would not have batted an eye ... and either of them would have had their boobs taped better so they were not lopsided.

Well what was she doing there? Inquiring minds!!!

Kinda like Eminem. While I do love E .... and I love "LOSE YOURSELF" from 8 MILE .... and I loved that many in the audience sang right along with him .... why was he there?

I think I read somewhere that E was there because they opted for no host. That's fine!!! 

But I am confused with BC being there and even walking on the red carpet?  

As far as PARASITE........hubby and I really want to see it.

We did see 1917, Once Upon A Time, Joker, and The Irishman.  We still want to see MARRIAGE STORY as well!!! 

FOUND THIS ........... on DAILY MAIL. 

Black Chyna made a surprise appearance on the Oscars red carpet in Hollywood on Sunday.

As many wondered what she was doing there, the mother-of-two took to her Instagram account to clear up the confusion in a video posted later that evening.

The clip, filmed ahead of her award show appearance, saw her confirm she was invited as a plus one to sound engineer, Christopher Trujillo.

Chris is a record engineer and producer who's worked with the likes of Ariana Grande (2016), Mariah Carey (2015) and Fifth Harmony (2015).

However, it's unsure where his 2020 invite came from as his last credited work was as the producer of Str8 Kash's track, Like The Devil, in 2017.




Check out what BC is up to today.  Stealing someone's pregnancy post. It's in this article the part about her OSCAR appearance.

OT...I think because BC is no longer a part of the K family (except that her daughter is a K) tries VERY HARD to still be "classed" with them.

The K's have no relationship with BC at all. Even the few tweets or IG that ROB puts out with DREAM have absolutely nothing to do with BC.

I think she struggles with her own demons.......I mean didn't her EX leave her for Kylie and was with Kylie for a long time???

Now that being said I don't think any of the K's were at the OSCARS but I believe they did attend the AFTER PARTIES. 



Yes, Luke Perry being ignored from what I read (because they ran out of time) was all kinds of wrong considering some of the hosts went on far too long when at the podium with

their banter before handing out the Oscar they were assigned.      Kristen and Maya, Will and Julia, James Corden and Rebel.......just too long.

ESP, if TPTB ALREADY knew LP was getting cut out.  

I loved BILLIE's performance of "Yesterday"!!! 

Thank you for saying this. I never thought of this but it's so true.

I also didn't feel bad for Khloe either, considering the Jordan Craig situation while she was showing up to places with Tristan.  She really wanted to portray this image of the perfect family until a couple of videos revealed the cracks in the mirror.

I believe that for the In Memoriam they include people who were members of the Academy. If an actor was in movies but not a member, they are not included. It makes for a fun game each year keeping track of who wasn't included. 

If it were my job, but this point I would have thrown my pencil across my desk and suggested that they just not do an in memoriam anymore

I saw a list of who was missed, I actually  used to love that part of the Oscar's.

I also love this part of the OSCARS where those in the movie industry are remembered.

I am sure PRE social media there were many forgotten over the years BUT now it's become a real issue as the Academy gets slammed IMMEDIATELY on IG or TWEETER once someone is forgotten.

And how sad does one's family feel when their loved one is forgotten      and then the Academy states .....   "we did not have enough time to say their name"    

Yes the Academy has to rethink all this.  

The Academy does a more complete list in their 'In Memoriam' slideshow on their website. This year's list has 164 entries, so it's easy to see why all of them wouldn't make it to the TV show. It would take a half hour to get through them all. Now matter how they edit the list down for TV, someone's not going to be happy.

The age-old debate is, whether the ceremony should be more for the Academy members, or the TV audience. Even though it became a huge media event, ultimately it's the Academy's night to celebrate the industry, including the editors, agents, etc. They already give out the technical awards on another night -- but now we're talking about honoring people who died. And the famous actors and directors know all these tech people from working with them, so the names aren't strange to them. So should the Memoriam be for the viewers, or the people sitting in the seats at the awards?

I wasn't thrilled by Billie Eilish either.
