Oscars

The 2012 Oscars is that one night a year where no one wants to be on the worst dressed list. Despite all their efforts, however, there's always those handful of stars that think they're workin' it when really Tim Gunn is rolling his eyes in the background.

After some negotiations, Sacha Baron Cohen's Admiral Aladeen character from 'The Dictator' was allowed to attend the Oscars. And, not so surprisingly, it didn't take long for him to cause trouble. During an interview with Ryan Seacrest, he managed to dump the ashes of recently deceased North Korean leader Kim Jong-II all over the ubiqitious host.

The 2012 Oscars is like the Super Bowl of fashion, and while not everyone can be an Academy Award winner, some are definitely winning in the best dressed category.

We all knew Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy were hitting the 2012 Oscars red carpet, but what most weren't expecting was a surprise duet. But it wasn't between these two 'Muppet' love birds. Instead, Kermit joined up with 'Glee's' Darren Criss for a stirring rendition of 'Rainbow Connection.'

The 2012 Oscars managed to include the expected and shocks all at the same time. Odds on favorite, 'The Artist', won five awards including Best Picture, Best Actor for Jean Dujardin and Best Director for Michel Hazanivicius. But 'Hugo' gave it a run for its money, also bringing home five awards (though none in the major categories).

Everyone has their own predictions as to which movie will snag the 2012 Oscar for Best Picture, but apparently no one's guess is more important than that of 'The Artist's' top dog Uggie. Jimmy Kimmel brought the 9-year-old Jack Russell on his show to settle this great debate once and for all.

On Sunday, Hollywood will once again congratulate itself on a year of jobs well done. What's unbelievably ridiculous about the Academy Awards is that in a sea of incredibly talented performances, the award can go to only one person. It just seems wrong.

From what we can gather, the infant star of the 'Don't Call Me Oscar' Tumblr is actually named Sophia. But other than that, all we know about the adorable youngster is that she is taking a "journey through the best picture nominees," as it says on the site's tagline.

For those of us who don't spend our lives and retirement funds making movies, the actual awards part of the Academy Awards isn't the most interesting. The people we like hardly ever win and we don't care how much anybody's publicist helped them get where they are today. What we really tune in to see are the fashion statements. More specifically the fashions that state, "Clearly, I'm nuts. Are

Republic of Wadiya ruler Admiral General Shabazz Aladeen (AKA actor Sacha Baron Cohen) angrily spoke out on 'Today' for being banned from this Sunday's Academy Awards. Readers will recall that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences reportedly revoked Baron Cohen's tickets after he threatened to show up as the fictional tyrant from his new movie 'The Dictator.'

Now that there are ten Academy Award nominations for best picture, it's probably too much to ask the casual movie fan to have seen each film before the Oscar telecast. So to help out with that, Conan has been reenacting the nominated films this week in short form. On Wednesday night he tackled 'The Help,' which he described as 'the struggle of one young white woman to expose her town's racism towa

It's easy to feel out of the loop at an Oscar party. Odds are many of the films nominated this year for Oscars didn't open up in a theater near you and even if they did, you may have been too busy to actually see them all. That's where we come in.

Mike Myers has never been nominated for an Academy Award. A fact that shouldn't shock anybody who has seen 'The Love Guru.' But despite this oversight, Myers is still a very talented actor. Don't believe us? Check out his hilarious turn as Oscar etiquette expert Sir Cecil Worthington in this promotional video for the 2012 Academy Awards.

The Academy Awards take place this weekend. It’s Hollywood’s biggest night and it might be yours, too, if you go to a good Oscars party. If you do wrangle an invite, make sure to avoid any of the following people, who typically show up at an Oscars bash.

With Oscars season upon us, it's anyone's guess who will take home the gold. Each year, some newcomers crash the party among veteran actors who command the red carpet at the Academy Awards. The annual event draws Hollywood's biggest stars, and millions more around the world. The press always puts together some basic information about this year's nominees, but how much do you actually know about th
