Angelina Jolie’s Right Leg Spoofed By Twitter Account

Angelina Jolie's Leg Spoofed By Twitter Account

Apparently there is someone out there with way too much time on their hands. If you’ve watched last night’s Academy Awards, then chances are you’ve noticed Angelina Jolie in that pretty black dress — and HER LEG!

Angelina strutted the red carpet and showed off the slit in her black velvet Atelier Versace dress by striking several poses with her leg cocked out. Since, a fan has decided to create a Twitter account for Angie’s right leg — and don’t laugh because the account already has over 12,000 followers on the social networking service.

The Academy said, “Angelina Jolie’s appearance got a lot of people talking – 3,399 tweets per minuet about her in fact.”

From the right leg’s Twitter account:

Look at meeee!!

Behold: it’s me!!

Still here. Great view, but thank god for the slit in this dress.

You have to admit I’m one hell of a leg.

You’ve got to admit, the leg is a bit of an attention whore. What about her left leg? We had to look and see if there was a Twitter account setup for the lost leg and lo and behold — there was. Angie’s left leg is self-described on Twitter as “I just wasn’t cut out for primetime on the 84th Oscars.”

Too funny. What did you think of Angelina’s dress? Love it or hate it? And what about that pose?

Oscars Recap: 2012 Academy Awards Full Winners List

Last night’s Oscars took place at the “Chapter 11″ Theater with veteran host Billy Crystal. His entrance was a bit long, but also featured teen singer Justin Bieber, you know, to get the younger demographic. My favorite part was where he was eating the pie from Minny’s scene in The Help.

The Winners:

Achievement in Cinematography : Hugo

Achievement in Art Direction : Hugo

Achievement in Costume Design : The Artist

Achievement in Makeup : The Iron Lady

Best Foreign Film : A Separation

Best Supporting Actress : Octavia Spencer, The Help

Achievement in Film Editing : The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

Achievement in Sound Editing : Hugo

Achievement in Sound Mixing : Hugo

Best Documentary : Undefeated

Best Animated Film : Rango

Best Visual Effects : Hugo

Best Supporting Actor : Christopher Plummer, Beginners

Best Original Score : The Artist

Best Original Song : Man or Muppet

Best Adapted Screenplay : The Descendants

Best Original Screenplay : Midnight in Paris

Best Live Action Short : The Shore

Best Documentary Short : Saving Face

Best Animated Short : The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore

Best Director: Michel Hazanavicius, The Artist

Best Actor: Jean Dujardin, The Artist

Best Actress: Meryl Streep, The Iron Lady

Best Picture: The Artist

Who do you think should’ve won? Who were you rooting for? We were thinking that Best Actress should’ve gone to Viola Davis, even though we adore Meryl Streep. Another highlight of the show was when Octavia Spencer won for The Help. She cried and received a standing ovation. Were you surprised to see Hugo and The Artist take home so many gold statues?

Robert Pattinson & Kristen Stewart won’t attend the Oscars together

Robert Pattinson & Kristen Stewart won't attend the Oscars together

The Oscars will be airing on February 27, 2011, but there’s one couple that won’t be attending the ceremony together: Robert Pattinson and real life girlfriend Kristen Stewart!

Reportedly, Rob will be attending the awards show by himself, as Kristen will be busy working. Kristen had expressed an interest in attending the ceremony after being offered the chance to present an award, but has to back out due to filming commitments.

There has been a lot of buzz surrounding these two lately. Rumors were flying that they were planning on getting married, which was debunked. Even more recently, Rob admitted that shooting a love scene for Breaking Dawn with Kristen was “awkward”.

He said, “It’s always awkward, in a way, if you’re doing it with anybody. It really depends on how it’s staged and stuff. It’s like doing Twister.”

Kristen Stewart defends her Oscars speech

by on Mar.11, 2010, under articles

Kristen Stewart drew criticism online over her throat clearing at the Oscars. I wasn’t sure why that was such a big deal, but some were offended, I imagine.

Kristen felt the need to defend the cough and even went as far as explaining herself.

She said, “I wouldn’t have been able to finish the sentence had I not gone and cleared my throat. Then I would’ve gotten more criticism for not being able to speak at the Oscars – which is worse than clearing your throat at the Oscars. It’s all good. There are a few things that replay in my head like, oh that happened, why? Why? A lot of it I find funny. The coughing I did find funny. This is going to baffle some people, but I was so proud of myself that night. I didn’t fall down or anything!”

I still don’t see what the big deal was over an “ahem” at the Oscars. PS. I loved her dress!

Miley Cyrus not taking Liam Hemsworth to the Oscars

by on Feb.25, 2010, under articles

Miley Cyrus will be presenting at this year’s Oscars, but don’t expect to see her Australian boyfriend, Liam Hemsworth on her arm. She’s taking her mother Tish, instead.

It’s no disrespect to Liam, either, she just said that she doesn’t want her appearance overshadowed by her relationship with the actor.

A source said, “Liam’s a pretty low-key guy anyways, he doesn’t mind not going.”

Her rep confirmed that “She’s taking her mom, Tish.”

Miley said, “We’ve decided that any type of relationship that we have, we will always just keep it very down low. First and foremost, we are best friends, so that’s what I tell people all the time. All you want is for one person to say, ‘You did a really good job today.’ Or, ‘You look really beautiful’, or, ‘I was really moved by that.’ You just want one person to make you feel good about something you’re doing.”

Jennifer Lopez should have won an Oscar?

by on Jan.07, 2010, under articles

In the latest issue of “Latina” magazine, Jennifer Lopez rants a little bit about how she should have won an Oscar for her role in “El Cantante”.

Lopez starred in the 2006 movie, alongside husband Marc Anthony. She expressed her disappointment with the Academy voters in her non-receipt of a nomination for the golden statue.

She said, “I feel like I had that [Oscar worthy role] in ‘El Cantante’, but I don’t even think the academy members saw it. I feel like it’s their responsibility to do that, to see everything that’s out there, everything that could be great.” (continue reading…)
