You know how when you're a kid, you always want to sit with the grown-ups at the big table, but then when you get there you realize that the kids' table was more fun to begin with? That's kind of the deal with the Oscars after party scene, also. Sure, it's a great honor to get invited to the show and the subsequent "Governor's Ball," but there's a reason why the Academy finally scuttled the sit-down dinner element of the Ball for a more streamlined cocktail-party this year: because people kept leaving early to go to all the other parties, including the perpetually star-studded Vanity Fair gala at the Sunset Tower.

Congratulations everyone, we have made it though another awards season in one piece and can begin the healing process. I'd just like to say kudos to Billy Crystal for keeping last night's ceremony moving and doing his best to make it as painless as one can for the invariably boring ordeal. Last night's winners were somewhat expected and, frankly, I really don't think I could care less. So let's get to the part that actually matters: what everyone wore. Without further ado, we bring you our picks for the best and worst dressed of the red carpet at the 2012 Oscars. More»
Thanks to Billy Crystal and an Academy comprised of old, humorless, white men, the Oscars was a night where the microphone feedback was far louder than the laughs. But have no fear, Twitter saved the day, boasting not only new accounts from Angelina Jolie's right leg and JLo's nipple, but a semi-offical #tweetroast by funnier comedians lambasting Tinseltown's favorite PR campaign. Here are some humorous highlights. More»
After last year's James Franco high-as-a-kite fiasco, the Oscars decided to keep things especially PG this year with Billy Crystal, Justin Bieber, Cirque du Soleil, and the theme of "At The Movies." But live TV spares no one, and even though the ceremony lagged (as per usual) and was severely disappointing in terms of Scorsese's Hugo sweeping the heap, there were some very awesome moments that need to be discussed. From Angelina Jolie's right leg, to J.Lo's nipple/non-nipple, and Bridesmaids taking shots, check out the very best of the Oscars 2012.
The four hour long lullaby known as The Academy Awards will be airing this Sunday, and if you're not pumped to see Billy Crystal try and save this sinking ship for the ninth time, then you agree with most Americans who view the whole thing as a yawn-inducing, if obligatory, formal event. But despite the Academy's ongoing effort to ensure that the show is as bland and inoffensive as a bowl of tapioca, things happen on live TV. Here's a list of the 11 wildest moments, from cross dressers to streakers, F-bombs to on-stage kisses, from Oscars past. More»

"This is why they invented TiVo," said my dad as he fast-forwarded and repeatedly groaned "this is brain damage" throughout the entire broadcast of the Oscars. I think he was right. Last night we learned there's at least one thing James Franco can't do, and that is save the Oscars from being horribly, painfully boring. More»
Leslie Mann, Emma Stone, Jennifer Westfeldt, Paul Rudd, Judd Apatow
Last night Graydon Carter hosted his annual post-award ceremony celebration at the Sunset Tower Hotel. Oscar winners, movie stars and famous non-movie stars alike descended on Vanity Fair's Oscar Party red carpet and posed for the cameras to prove they made it into the hottest event of the year. Go inside to see who Josh Brolin tried to lick, a Bieber cameo, and Oscar noms hug it out with the winners they lost to. More»
It would be a sick joke to sit here and remind you that it's Oscar weekend since the biggest Hollywood circle jerk of the year has probably had a direct effect on your life in one aspect or another if you live in L.A. We already know the ceremony will be deathly boring but I'm concerned it will do to James Franco for me what it did to Hugh Jackman when it turned into a VH1 Divas Live show that year. Sad... But let's get to the parties with open bar, and there are lots of them this weekend so you might as well take advantage. All of the weekend festivities can be found on our calendar, but we've selected the best Oscar-related events of the weekend for you here in our 2011 Oscar Weekend Party Guide! More»
