Other events besides the Oscars - quick thoughts!

The Oscars are tomorrow, but the last week or so has been riddled with some other events, each of which had at least one picture that made me go, NO BABY JESUS NO! So here, have some rapidfire thoughts:

1. DATE: March 4. EVENT: 3rd Annual Black Women in Hollywood Luncheon. SUBJECT: Jada Pinkett-Smith.


Uh, what is going with this hair, exactly? Did Will just revert back into his "Fresh Prince" days and go all early-'90s on her? Cuz I'm really confused as to why someone, two decades after that time period, would still be rocking this ... "look?" Is that the right word here?

2. DATE: March 4. EVENT: 2010 Hollywood Reporter Oscar Nominee Reception. SUBJECT: Jeremy Renner.


STEP AWAY FROM MEL. Jeremy Renner, your career has not yet been tainted! "The Hurt Locker" is your first big break! Don't let Sugartits ruin it for you! Seriously, don't say anything about Judaism. They'd never find your body, after Mad Max is done hiding it.

3. DATE: March 4. EVENT: 3rd Annual Women in Film Pre-Oscar Party. SUBJECT: Michelle Rodriguez.


Not helping the lesbian rumors, Michelle. Not one bit.

4. DATE: March 5. EVENT: Film Independent Spirit Awards. SUBJECT: Taraji P. Henson.


Why yes, Taraji, I WOULD like to see your vag. Thanks for wearing a dress with a high-enough slit that this could be possible. I mean, it's a bad sign when Mariah Carey might even look classier than you.


Well, she's obviously wearing a dress from 1994 (it's too small for her, get it?!), but ... I'm sure you know what I mean.

Whomp whomp, meet Mad Max.

Look, I love me some fucking "Mad Max," OK? It's like, the only thing Mel Gibson has done that I have ever liked, and I adore it ... especially when he gets all "Lawrence of Arabia"-esque:


And I would have loved if Hollywood just didn't fuck with it. But why would they do that? That would be too logical. So now, yes, "Mad Max: Fury Road" is in the works with a supposed release date of 2012, and this guy, Tom Hardy, starring.


The only reason I remember him is because he played Picard's clone in "Star Trek: Nemesis" ...


... NO JUDGMENTS, OK? So what, I like "Star Trek" and post-apocalyptic films. Fuck you guys.

I've just got so many thoughts.

Sorry for the lack of posts; this week has been shitty. To deal, I've been amusing myself with the following things:

1. Christian Joy, the woman who does Karen O.'s costumes, did a line inspired by "Where the Wild Things Are." Here are some pics:



Overall, the pieces are ridiculous but also fucking amazing, considering how much work it must have taken for all of them to come together. Although, Joy admits that she hadn't read the book before this point; what the fuck, did she not have a childhood?

2. These have been making me chuckle.


Like, what? Who in their right mind would wear elbow-length leather gloves? Besides like, me, Rihanna and Aunty Entity, I'm going to guess no one.


3. Fashion Week wrapped up with some sick shit. You can see for yourself.

My Rihanna/Mad Max moment is IMMINENT.

So if I buy both pairs of these boots, that will be 1/30th of what I make in a year at my job. That's not too much, right?
