Oscars 2014 or a Glorified Pizza Party?

Let the pizza party, err, I mean the Oscars commence!  Don’t you get the feeling that if Ellen DeGeneres were to have a pizza party that Brad Pitt, Meryl Streep, Jennifer Lawrence, and Jared Leto would be among some of the invitees?  Well, why not kill two birds with one stone: host the Oscar and have the most glamourous pizza party ever.  I must say, however, even celebrities can’t make eating pizza look glamourous (i.e. Brad Pitt taking a huge bite out of his veggie slice).  

Either way the Oscars were once again entertaining and I must admit I enjoyed Ellen’s natural candor and signature humor.  Here are my top ten comments on the night and my favorite gowns!

1.  Jennifer Lawrence fell, again.  

2.  Ellen’s introduction of Jim Carrey: “Citizen Kane, Lawrence of Arabia, Ace Ventura. Our next presenter was in one of those. Please welcome Jim Carrey.”  

3.  When Lupita Nyong’o won her Best Supporting Actress Oscar, she of course hugged her brother, director Steve McQueen, and Liza Minnelli.  What the what?  Was Liza a silent producer of the film?

4.  The selfie that broke Twitter.  There is something refreshing about watching Brad and Angelina Jolie get giddy over a selfie. Also, best line of the night: ‘I’ve never tweeted before,’ exclaims an excitable Meryl Streep.  

5.  That time Lupita Nyong’o’s brother jumped in on the most famous selfie ever. Go get ’em kid. Also, those two have the same hairstyle.  

Even Brad Pitt can't make eating pizza sexy.  Or can he?

6.  An Oscars pizza party and the luckiest pizza guy ever.  It was a first to see food handed out at the Oscars (and each star looked like a ravenous Oliver Twist!) as Harrison Ford awkwardly poked Ellen for a napkin, Jared Leto sprawled out across his row to grab a slice of cheese and Brad munched happily while his wife looked on.  

Leo DiCaprio wanted no part of it and Harvey Weinstein picked up the tip as Ellen, hilariously, borrowed Pharrell’s hat to collect the tip donation.  Not to mention that pizza guy was booked on every morning show today.  

7.  Umm, John Travolta, you’re fired.  ‘Adele Dazeem?’  Really?   

8.  Is Matthew McConaughey slightly obsessed with himself?  I think so.

9.  Jordan Catalano won an Oscar.  (This gives me hope that one day a 90210 star will win one too.) 

10.  Kim Novak: #toomuchbotox.
