Academy Awards

Well, I can't say too much about Nicole Kidman's hair, but she sure has a brand new pair of lips:

You have to give it to Swinton. She has a style of her own and for her I think it works.

Basically they were all pretty boring.  I found a picture of Rene Zellweiger on EOnline.  She looks very pretty:  http://www.eonline.com/photos/gallery.jsp?galleryUUID=74ed8fdd-1379-4022-b058-a01578cd532c#591bf82c-8902-4dd5-9cdd-1e072b9d1352 

I thought overall the Oscar styles were really disappointing. Almost everyone's hair fell between unremarkable and head-scratchingly bad. I never quite understand why celebs don't really show off their hair at occasions like this, as it easily could be their most alluring feature. Last night everyone's hair seemed either pinned up completely (thus removing its potential sexiness entirely so people can instead focus on their, um ears?) or fastened into some weird half-ponytail thing with raggedy long pieces hanging across and down the face, a la Cameron Diaz (seriously, Cameron, this is like your billionth event in a row where your hair makes you look like you just came from the gym).

The one extraordinary exception: Katherine Heigl, whose full, short, curly blonde 'do not only looked so stunning I did a double-take when I saw it, but also placed hers among the few styles that actually seemed intended to emphasize the beauty of the wearer and honor the glamour of the event. Katherine, not only do you top my list, you're the only one on it!

Oh - honorable mention to Julie Christie, also had very full, pretty hair.

Katherine Heigl hands down; she looked awesome!!

      Let's hope that no one steals Tilda Swinton's Oscar from her park bench. Lordy!  Bob
