I missed the Oscars red carpet because I was busy doing this
Yep, that's me zigzagging the ski slopes of Mt. Packenham. Okay, let's be honest. That's me TRYING to zigzag the beginner's hill at Mt. Packenham, Ontario. And no, I'm not even going to show any photo evidence that Richard took of me crashing (very sweet of him), without the slightest hint of provocation from anything (unless my total inexperience counts as anything?), in the middle of the hill and right in front of three, four-year-olds who ski like champions. To be fair, I was not the only adult who looked like a total wimp at the beginner's hill, there must have been at least five of us (with some falling more embarrassingly than others, I tell you), and after my fall, I redeemed myself by not falling ever again and learning how to turn on my own. Wait, is that a slow clap I'm hearing? And a what? Formal induction to the cool kids hall of fame? Thank you, thank you. lol.
We made it in time for the Oscar's awards show though and as fun and super funny as Ellen was, all I was secretly hoping for was a performance of my - and everybody's - favorite, "Let It Go" (if it's not your favorite YET, then...WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU? lol) byΒ Idina Menzel (or Adele Dazeem according to John Travolta, much to the confusion and collective heartbreak of eight-year-olds everywhere).
And since we're already talking favorites, here are my favorite stars from last night whose hair and makeup really made them shine (as far as my expert opinion is concerned).
The very pregnant and very glowing Kerry Washington in Jason Wu.
The always beautiful Jennifer Garner in an Oscar de la Renta number I'm not so crazy about.
My forever girl-crush Emma Watson in Vera Wang.
And the world might crucify me for this, but JLaw's look, I'm not completely digging. And I'm an "expert", remember?
Photos from here, here, here, and here. Photo grabbing from the internetΒ is what made me an "expert", obviously.
