Aeon Flux was an anime cartoon character in the Mid 90s. The episodes aired on MTV. She was a racy looking, swanky woman!

It was a great cartoon!!

I read this this morning and it cracked me up:

Least Surprised Winner: Annette Bening, who coolly raised her champagne glass in toast when she heard her name called as Best Actress for "Being Julia." After accepting a chaste kiss on each cheek from husband Warren Beatty, a man who once made generations of women swoon, she proceeded monotonously to rattle off a list of names that meant little to us. Annette, you're getting praised for your work in front of millions of people -- can't you feign some surprise and excitement or spare a little sugar for your sweetie? And while we're still not sure what she was referring to when she thanked Beatty for lunch at the "pizza joint," if her form-fitting dress is any indication, she didn't down anything with carbs.

When I saw Annette's win, I first thought she could at least try to feign a little excitement, but then I noticed she looked close to tears a few times. I think she was just trying to be poised, regal, classy, whatever. She was acting. The cheek/cheek kiss she shared with Warren was a bit disturbing- struck me as odd, considering they are married and have four children.

The kisskiss was weird and formal! I told my husband...let's not do that when we get old. He was weirded out by her little speech. It was just so stiff and rehearsed. My husband said, "Oh my gosh....she's just memorized some lines--she's a robot!"

And I love her....think she's the coolest. It's just that last night she was giving off vibes that something was not...right.

I watched what I could of this show last night~had the pre-show on E! for a while. What was with Star Jones' laugh? Oh my gawd, when she asked Kevin Kline why he was still robbing the cradle with Phoebe Cates! She should have said something a bit more to the effect how Phoebe still looks as she did 20 years ago.

I missed Kate Winslet. I, too, think she is beautiful. I want her hair and her lovely skin.

Yes, Charlize looks just like that character from MTV! I wonder if she can move like her? Is that photo from a movie of the anime?

My big happy surprise was when Leonardo DiCaprio won. I was disappointed that it was so quiet. Was everyone trying to listen to him speak or was everyone against his win? I know he has gotten a lot of grief for being a heart throb but, to me, he is a very talented actor. He has been in quite a few movies where was amazing. 'What's Eating Gilbert Grape?' , 'This Boys Life', and, I even loved him in 'Titanic'. I think he is a cool young dude and the things he does show he has real character. Nice that his parents were there, too.

Scarlett Johansen was stunning.

Halle Berry, didn't she look in the mirror? Didn't it feel uncomfortable?

Nicole~ looked tired.

Natalie Portman~looked rosy cheeked and excited. Was Meryl Streeps comment a joke?

I agree, Lisa Marie Presley needed to crack a smile.

Orlando Bloom and Johnny Depp~ my ice cream sundae. Thank you.

Um, something not being right with Annette Benning? Well, she is married as well as the fact that she is married to Warren Beaty. Couples have tiffs.

How about Hillary Swanks' comment? 'Did I forget anyone? Kidding!!' How did you guys take the look on her husbands' face???

When she won her Oscar for Boys Don't Cry, she thanked everyone under the sun....but not her husband. She got a lot of grief over it and it was a joke for a while. I think the look on his face was saying, "My brother is Rob Lowe and my wife is a hottie. How did I get so lucky when I'm such a shrub?"

Meryl Streep! I really thought it was hilarious what she did....very funny moment. I would have loved to see Natalie Portman's face. And then when Glenn Close asked Meryl if it was okay if she won. Cute.

I missed the awards last night but I KNEW I could come here and catch up!! Now I just need to go look at the pictures :o

Damn I need tivo


So I just looked at some pix and I have to say
Eva Longoria-what was she thinking? Gabrielle has one of the best wardrobe's on tv & this is what she picks?? Claire you are so right on the $ w/the prom comment
Teri Hatcher-I loved this dress, complicated but sooo pretty
Natalie Portman-didn't care for that one at all
Felicity Huffman-soooooo pretty!!
Charlize Theron-I think the dress is gorgeous, LOVE that color, the hair eh
Renee' Zellweger-I really dug the dress & shoes
Scarlett Johansson-The dress was okay, but I LOVED her hair & makeup, old glamour
Nicole Kidman-I liked the color & cut of the dress, the hair not so much
Halle Berry-um ick
Debra Messing-love the color of the dress, but the cut didn't look flattering from the pix I saw
Kate Hudson-Love love love the dress! She looked so pretty
Hilary Swank-see Kate Hudson


Johnny Depp, yummy as always
Orlando Bloom, soo not an Orlando fan, but I must say he looked QUITE tasty!

[UvaGirl]

A few thoughts...

Star Jones-Reynolds drives me nuts at these things!

One of the other E! presenters had a really pretty dress - L'Huillier, I think. It was gorgeous.

Claire Danes looked nice. Her hair looks good long.

Hillary Swank looked amazing - great dress!

I'm convinced Teri Hatcher has had some work done. Didn't much look like it last night, but I've seen a few photos that would suggest it... Nice dress and hair though.

Jennifer Garner always looks good, but her hair could have been better, imho.

Charlize looked great - much better when she's not orange

Mmmmmmm....Johnny Depp

Kate Winslet just looks fabulous.

Ah, I see. Well, I didn't know that about Hillary. LOL I love your description of him.

Okay, it was funny what MS said but I wasn't sure. I was trying to think if she was up for the same award or what. I really didn't pay too close attention to all of that. Yeah, I was looking at the hotties, clothes, and hair.

Thanks for clearing that up!
