All-Star Fashionistas

 

A look at some of the all-star fashionistas of the Academy Awards.

SAG Awards Red Carpet Arrivals 2013

The biggest stars of film and television arrive at the 19th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards in Los Angeles, California, on January 27, 2013

Jennifer Lawrence

Despite being sick, “Silver Linings Playbook” star Jennifer Lawrence – who’s recent battle with walking pneumonia has prevented her from attending other events this weekend, including Saturday night’s Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Awards – looked stunning upon arriving at the 19th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards in a dark blue Dior Couture gown, sideswept tresses, and dripping diamond necklace.


Oscar's Top 10 Biggest Landslides

Oscaralogists love a suspenseful clash – sometimes the winner is crystal clear. Absolutely no chance of an upset. It seems foolish even to open the envelope at the Oscar ceremony because everyone knows whose name is inside. In recent years, runaways have become quite common. Let's take a look at the Top 10 Biggest Oscar Landslide Victories (in the acting categories) from the past two decades

 
The pretty woman received two Oscar nominations early in her career, but to many observers they probably seemed like flukes. That was until "Erin Brockovich" debuted in March of 2000, instantly drawing comparisons to Sally Field's award-winning performance in "Norma Rae" more than two decades earlier. Fortunately for the red-haired and red-hot Roberts, voters didn't forget about "Brockovich" at the end of the year, as she earned Best Actress honors from the L.A. Film Critics Assn., the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and SAG. Her film even garnered nominations for Best Picture and Director, making it all the more apparent that Best Actress was Roberts' race to lose. Her competition was quite solid, including strong dramatic work from Ellen Burstyn in "Requiem for a Dream," Laura Linney in "You Can Count on Me" and Joan Allen in "The Contender." Roberts could still count on the Oscar going her way, and it did. As far as most pundits were concerned, Julia was the only real contender. 

Golden Globes: Snubs And Surprises

Check out the snubs and the surprises for the 70th Golden Globe Awards.

 
SNUB: Leonardo DiCaprio

Leo is having a bad week. Not only was he completely ignored by the Academy on Thursday for his turn as sadistic Southern plantation owner Calvin J. Candie, but he also lost the Golden Globe to his verbose German co-star Christoph Waltz. Perhaps he was too good at playing someone so profoundly reprehensible?

 

Award Winning Roles That Got Away

Some celebrities are still kicking themselves for turning down roles that went on to receive nominations and wins at the Golden Globes and Oscars.

 
Michelle Pfeiffer was offered the role Jodie Foster scored an Oscar for in "Silence of the Lambs," but Pfeiffer turned it down because it was too violent.
