Talking about the Oscars how about introducing a new face? It has been a mistake actually no to mention her success and talent after all she had done. She has no nominations so far for the Academy Awards, but still she shows up on the red carpet since she is determined and she is definitely going to get it.
Times ago New York magazine put a huge title in capital letters; “Hilton heiress is on the way”. Not much later, the world has turned upside down with Paris Hilton’s birth on February 17, 1981 in New York City. It was such a cute baby with a tiny little nose and pink lips. People considered this as extraordinary. It was extraordinary indeed. Not all the American babies have pink lips and tiny nose after all. Years have passed, our young Paris became a high school student. Her family paid almost a billion dollars to get her through the middle school, since their porcelain doll was busy attending so many cool house parties or launching one in her house in Malibu Island, instead of keeping her GPA in a certain level. She could not be able to graduate from a university. So what? She is still the heiress of Hilton Hotels. She is still so beautiful and attractive. She can still be an actress, a dancer, a singer, a super model and a company manager of “Paris Hilton Perfumery”. She has three nominations and two wins for Razzie Awards. This is a total fiasco for poor Kate Winslet who had waited to get an Academy Award for five years. It took five years for her to get an Oscar while Paris got all sort of statues in just a year. As simple as that, Paris is the shining star and a blond goddess. Watch how she walks on the red carpet with her untouchable gown like a real renaissance mademoiselle. Thousands of cameras set their angles for Paris Hilton. No one can take their eyes off her. All the successful directors have gone crazy to find another rational reason to keep her away from their own productions. They need to give a chance to the new producers after all. She stands in front of the cameras for hours since she has a lot to show off, including her new nail polish and hair clips. We do all we can to follow her steps and become a Paris Hilton.

Benjamin or Slumdog

Chris Anderson the editor of the New York Times has been pretty stubborn about "Slumdog's hyped-up success". He had admitted his privative opinions about the movie a couple of times before and accomplished to get what he wants. Now reasonably many people including the critics and media are getting frustrated by the fact that Slumdog Millionaire was deemed to worth of seven Oscars. The Slumdog Millionaire made its mark on the ceremony, no doubt about it. It got total of eight nominations and the producers left Kodak Theater with seven Oscars including the best director and best movie. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button had been a huge disappointment for almost everyone. Although the movie had thirteen nominations, it only was able to get two which cause a total blast. Now, two different point of views are being reflected in the magazine articles and newspaper headlines. "Should it be Benjamin's weird story or fairytale of the Slumdog, getting all the awards and giving no chance to the others?" Starting with Anderson's comment, it is observed that he is being pretty harsh about Slumdog. He states without hesitating: "What I will remember of Slumdog is a cruel destruction of a disordered life and violence. At least this is what was being reflected on the white screen by the "best director." However there is one huge mistake that Anderson can not understand while making fairly implacable comments. Anderson refuses to accept that the director emphasize how a country so perished with poorness could actually manage to conquer. The final dance in the movie especially shows so many brave people putting their hands under the stone and dare to fight back to be happy despite the pain. Unlike Anderson I am totally satisfied by Slumdog's success and glad that Benjamin's weird story could not be able to have all thirteen of the Oscars that it was nominated for. After all, Benjamin Button is more likely to be science fiction and imaginary, rather than being an artistic one. Applying twenty hours worth of make up to turn Brad Pitt into a slightly older man did not make the movie nor the director “the best" as I had expected. Tina Walter the editor of People Magazine brings out her opinions about Benjamin Button. “It was such a great performance from Brad Pitt and also the movie was something extraordinary and unexpected. It should have got its Oscars." In a way Walter is correct. Benjamin was something unexpected but still it does not put it a step further than Slumdog.

FAMOUS FOR WHAT??

What I would like to be famous for? Let me think for a while...I would want to be a talented actress or a piano player. Think about all those Hollywood stars.. I mean look how they live freely and do whatever they want to do. They impersonate into many different people and therefore different lives. Their success depends on their talent, imagination and a little bit of luck. I would never want to get a job were I'll have to sit on a chair in my office and read thousands of papers and stuff just to contribute something to my company. I would want to do something which requires my imagination not my academic achievements. Besides, being an actress is awesome since they earn a lot of money by just using their talent, which is a great deal. Walking on the Red Carpet with an elegant dress decorated with diamonds would be amazing, huh? Furthermore it is good to be known by the rest of the world forever. I would like to be known with my talent and successful movies( if I could only make one). So pretty much being an actress is one of the top two things that I would want to do for the rest of my life. I would want to act forever and ever and ever and ever.. and ever. Also being a famous musician would be great, however not one of those short-lived fake ones. I would want to be like Mozart, Chopin( which I know could only happen in my dreams:):)) Mozart and Chopin.. They both are unforgettable masters of music and they are still very famous with their pieces in the classical world. I would want to be a piano player and travel all around the world to have recitals. Being a piano player also requires imagination. If you have it as a profession, you don't have to work till you are fed up with it. Anytime you can give a break and after a while move on and earn money. You never feel any pressure, you don't see any company managers bossing around you and ordering you selfishly. However let me make one thing so clear, I will never be an actress or although I play the piano I’ll never take it as a profession. I really would like to be able to brave enough to give it a try but I can not ignore the factor of "luck". As I mentioned before I would want to choose something that I could freely use my imagination and get money instead of doing paper work. that would be awesome

Was Leonardo Di Caprio overlooked by the Academy???

This is one of the biggest questions which keeps spinning in everybody's mind. "Was Leo overlooked by the Academy?" The answer would be "YES" if we think about all his succesful performances and the fact that he has never been able to get an Oscar. Take a look at his outstanding movie "Titanic". He was not even able to be nominated in a supporting role, while his co-actor Kate Winslet was nominated in a leading role. now, 10 years after the couple gets together in another project which is directed by Sam Mendes, "The Revolutionary Road". Again, while Kate Winslet gets her Golden Globe,with the movie, Leo couldn't get anything. He wasn't even nominated. It seems like Leo's fans are getting furious..


THE MOST OUTSTANDING DRESS OF THE YEAR....


Hollywood's royal couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt shined together on the red carpet as they arrived at the 2009 Oscars held at the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles on Sunday. Angelina Jolie, wearing a black, floor-lenght strapless gown walked on the Red Carpet looked absolutely gorgeous. Once more, the actress proves her nobility in the ceremony. She was nominated with her movie "The Changeling" in a supporting role. Certainly she got full points from all the designers and critics. Her elegant black gown looked pretty aristocratic on her, but what made her even more stunning was her emerald earrings. Those earrings made her stand out.

SOME OF THE WORS DRESSES OF 2009

As well as watching the magnificent dresses along the red carpet, we saw so many unsuccessful designs during the Red Carpet Event. Here are some of the actresses who could not make the best choice for the special night. Starting with Jessica Biel, who we were all used to see in classy dresses disappointed everyone including the critics. She arrived in this very complicated outfit from Prada. It was a white, strapless gown. It looked more like Biel had stuck between wearing a dress and pants and finally she came up with a weird combination of both. Miley Cyrus wore a Zuhair Murad gown. She told the interviewer that her dress weighted almost 100.000 pounds and that is definitely what the dress looked like from the T.V screen. About Kate Winslet; her dress from YSL made her look stylish but kind of fat in a way. Although I have not got much to talk about her dress, I certainly admit that her hair looked more like a helmet. She could have done better than that. Heidi Klum arrived with a red, modern design however she had lots of unnecessary jewels which was kind of too much for the Oscars and it was not even her night. Sarah Jessica Parker, on the other hand looked more like a fiancée. She arrived with an enormously fluffy white gown which was a total failure.
