Red Carpet: BAFTA PreParty, Sci-Tech, and WGA

Eight beauties for you this afternoon as we get closer and closer to Oscar and more and more awards are handed out. We'll know the BAFTA winners in a few hours (though they still don't televise it live making it hard to take seriously in this day and age) but here are four women from the pre-party.

Sandy Powell (just interviewed!), Dakota Johnson, Cate Blanchett, and Bel Powley. Was the dress code black and white? 

 

Olivia Munn co-hosted the Academy's Sci-Tech Awards. Meanwhile at the WGA Awards, Adepero Oduye (gorgeous in yellow!) showed up to support The Big Short, Gina Gershon, and Diane Lane were also out on the red carpet. Olivia's busy but these other three deserve bigger roles than they've been getting -- they've got the talent and the charisma for them. Hopefully the guild members, all writers after all, will be inspired by their presence to create richer roles for them or actresses like them. 

WGA WINNERS
Original SPOTLIGHT
Adapted THE BIG SHORT
Documentary GOING CLEAR
Television FARGO

We've every reason to expect that Original and Adapted will tilt the same way at the Oscars on the 28th but what do you think is running second in both races? We're guessing Inside Out (Original)  in distant second and Room (Adapted) a closer second.

Goodness it does seem a memo was sent round suggesting black & white. Thank heavens not everyone complied. LOVE what Diane Lane is wearing, she looks amazing.

Every year when they issue photos and a press release about the sci-tech Oscars along with "_____ starlet hosted" my first thought is "Of course that bitch did!"

It is the most basic gig in Hollywood, ripe for the Oliviae Munn & Wilde, and Jessica Albas of the world. It would kill the Academy to give the job to Elizabeth Debicki or someone halfway interesting. They might as well permanently hand the responsibilities to Chrissy Tiegen.

I was genuinely amused to read Olivia Munn's name, because, again, OF COURSE THAT BITCH DID.

(Sigh). Spotlight's not bad, but Inside Out should SO be taking this.
