That's right; a thread being vile about a WOMAN

WTF was that all about? For anyone who hasn't seen

Why was she standing with her leg about 5ft away from the rest of her body? She looked awkward and weird and her leg looked like a chicken leg whereas mine are wonderful, obviously.

AIBU to think that Angelina's Oscar Leg was a bit ridiculous?

I love Victoria. I reckon she is a behind-the-scenes funster. I do.

Paula - brilliant Grin

Paula I have just choked on my cheese sarnie

Glenn Close looked like a dog's dinner, as she tends to at the Oscars. Michelle Williams chose a dreadful dress, in my opinion- hideous from the back, and with a horrid apronish frill at the front which looks like a market trader's money belt. I like Natalie Portman's vintage polka dot dress- unusual without being too try-hard. The best frock for me, I think, was Ellie Kemper's- she looked absolutely stunning.

GhastlyBespoke · 27/02/2012 12:33

Do you Bups? Do you really?

I normally stick up for Posh - I agree she looks like she'd be really fun but she needs to either not go out & catch up on sleep or go out & stop this pouting/not smiling thing. She looks really sad/? depressed in the photos in the last few weeks. Its a hard situation to be in - she wants to maintain her profile by being in the limelight but maybe she needs to take some time off. Really hope she has a friend to say this to her.

LeBOF · 27/02/2012 12:37

I would not be a funster if I ate two peas and a prawn for lunch. I just don't think it's possible. She looks like she has a permanent low-blood sugar headache.

Angelina Jolie always looks a bit dirty and trashy to me, no matter how much she tarts up. Maybe its the nasty manly tattoos.

I really dislike Gwynnie too but have to concede, she stole the show, that dress is lovely.

NowThenWreck · 27/02/2012 12:40

What I love about Posh is that she pulled this really amazingly good looking premiership footballer, kept him,and you just know she has him by the golden balls.
Also, he looks like he likes it that way.

I do. I've head she has a really good sense of humour. She just doesn't smile because she hates her teeth. Which makes me warm to her even more. Despite all of the stick she gets for looking like a lemon-lipped grumpface she sticks to her guns and remains unsmiling. Her insecurity over-rides her need to be liked. Poor Victoria. :(

Victoria Beckham looked like she just wanted to go home. She makes me uncomfortable because she always looks quite sad and lonely on photos. Obviously I don't know what she's really like.

That picture with JLo and Steven Tyler is fab. I want to know what they were chatting about, as it looks amusing.

Was the lovely Ryan Gosling photographed at all?

squeaver · 27/02/2012 12:43

What's happened is that she's chosen the dress, it's probably had to be mega-adjusted to fit the bag of bones that she is. So she had to wear it, then realised that she looks like a a 14 year old goth on the way to her bedroom for a good moping session. Then someone's said, "It's got a split, stick your leg out, that'll get you some attention". And the great global ambassador for human rights, with the world's handsomest man as her life-partner and the world's best mother, does as she's told to get herself a few inches of press coverage.

She's well-adjusted, isn't she?

FreudianSlipper · 27/02/2012 12:45

i think she looks amazing, such a foxy lady and interesting too, she never looks like she has tried too hard. bit of an odd way to stand maybe she is hiding something or has a bad back

Milla Jovovich, Cameron Diaz and Penelope Cruz look great too

glad to see Am I a Man or a Muppet won best song :)

squeaver · 27/02/2012 12:45

Also, you know her and Brad are good mates with Assad and his wife, don't you?

That's right, the dictator who's killing his own people by the thousand.

Not had much to say on THAT thorny little issue, have you Ange?

GreenEyesAndHam · 27/02/2012 12:46

I was pissing mysen this morning watching The Leg on Daybreak Grin

Oh she looks hideous, put your manky, stick legs away or put a bit of fat on them and then pose weirdly for all the world to see. Why does looking like a 12 year old child appeal to most of these Hollywood women thankfully not all of them but an awful lot shed pounds they can't afford to lose if you ask me.

AgathaFusty · 27/02/2012 12:52

I think Brad Pitt has a bit of a look of Ricky Gervais about him lately. Victoria B - could go with the no-smile routine, but what's with her insistance on the weird pose, especially when it makes any photos of her with anyone else look so awkward. Gwyneth needs to ditch the smug look. I know she is but she doesn't need to play to it.

Clytaemnestra · 27/02/2012 12:58

Squeaver - she's actually called for intervention in Syria and said what is happening is an atrocity (I just googled it)

PosiePumblechook · 27/02/2012 12:59

E! News host Giuliana Rancic looks like she could do with a meal or ten.

PosiePumblechook · 27/02/2012 13:02

However Angelina got Brad is old news, he seems to have come out of the whole thing less evil than her. He married Jen, not Angelina, and yet she gets loads of shit for it. She's beautiful and seems to have a conscience, I expect she's alright in real life. And she can act. She also disowned her father for something credible, can't remember what.

Her leg looks odd and her beauty is enhanced but I think, as much as I hate to say it, that she's okay.
