I've picked my five favorite women. On the bubble were Rachel Weisz, Dolly Parton, and Reese Witherspoon. In the men's category, George Clooney won; fame, fortune, intelligence, wit, and good looks all in one. Plus, he was Batman once.

I didn't understand the need for such a huge bow on Charlize Theron's dress. Otherwise, it was quite lovely.

George Clooney is always easy on the eyes! :cool:

By the way, call me weird, but I really enjoyed the spoof of the musicians "playing off" Tom Hanks' fake long acceptance speech! I loved how they started surrounding him and the the violin being smashed on his head and the tranquilizer dart coming out of the clarinet (?). :lol:

I still laugh thinking about it...seems almost Monty Pythonish to me.

Anyone mind if I put in a vote for Hilary Swank?

Can I be blunt ? On the whole fashion designers didn't do a very good job. I found most dresses to be rather dull or kind of wrong. What a pity.

But I enjoyed the red carpet shots, there is always a comforting conclusion to draw if you want to look for it. Mine was that getting a suitable dress for such an event is probably a big headache (even though certainly, it is more exciting a headache than having to wonder how you are going to pay for a medical bill). I thought of my one and only long evening gown, and how I wouldn't want to exchange it for any of those I saw. And it is not stunning. Was I content. :D

This British newspaper (the Guardian) also did a best dressed rating. Their favorite was Uma Thurman. I think I agree. And, among others, they also liked Dolly Parton.

Incidentally guys, about Dolly Parton... Her breasts, do you think they are real ?

:lol:

Of course they are real. They're certainly not a hologram.

Am wondering... Does this declaration apply to anything ? :roll:
