Watch The Oscars With CollegeCandy!

oscars-732859.jpgThe big night is finally here! On Sunday Brangelina and Jennifer Aniston will be reuniting for the first time since the big divorce the best actors and actresses in Hollywood will be showered with big gold statues and lots and lots of praise.

Yes, my friends, it’s time for the Oscars!

Who is going to win? Who is going to cry? How hot is Hugh Jackman gonna look? And who is going to wear something totally ridiculous?

Since we have nothing better to do on a Sunday night (and since there is really nothing better than talking sh*t about celebrities/staring at Hugh Jackman for 4 hours), CollegeCandy will be ordering in some Pad Thai and watching every last minute.

Care to join? We’ll be live blogging the Red Carpet Pre-Show on E! starting at 6pm EST. Grab your friends, some wine and your laptop and discuss all the highlights and lowlights of the big event with us!

See ya Sunday!


GWWE: Hugh “Hump Me” Jackman

hugh_jackman_photo.jpgThere’s no one I want to eff more than a man with an accent, and who better to eff than People’s Sexiest Man Alive? Why is Hugh Jackman the sexiest man alive you ask? Um, where should I start… How about his abs? His chest? His scruff? His Biceps.? Oh god, his biceps

But I digress, of course Hugh is easy on the eyes (and everywhere else) but I’m not completely superficial and shallow. Hugh is the full package, my friends: he sings, dances, acts, and makes me sweat a little every time I see his beautiful effing body.

He offers an array of sexiness on and off screen. Looking for bad-ass sexy? Check out Wolverine in X-men and tell me if mutten chops and a wife beater have ever looked as sexy. Answer: no. Mutants aren’t your thing? That’s okay, because Hugh has you covered. He is so effing sexy in everything he does. Whether you like your man a little rugged (see Australia), or sweet and romantic (via Kate and Leopold), Hugh will bring it. Seriously, who doesn’t like variety? Read More »


Dos & Don’ts of Running Into Your Ex

okay021809.jpgJennifer Aniston is reportedly bringing her boyfriend, John Mayer, as her date to the Academy Awards this Sunday, which has everybody talking about what’s going to happen when/if they run into Brangelina on the red carpet.  It’s the first time Jen, Brad, and Angelina have been in the same room together since Jen & Brad’s divorce, so will it be totally awkward?  Will Jen and Angelina get into a hair-pulling-roll-on-the-carpet catfight?  Or will they totally ignore each other?

We’ll have to wait till Sunday to see what happens, but this whole possible situation got me thinking how any of us could have (or already have) that inevitable run-in with an ex and his new love, and what we should and shouldn’t do when we find ourselves in the same situation:

DON’T run in the opposite direction – Chances are if you saw him, he saw you too. Running away looks pathetic, awkward and could result in injury. Trust me on this one. The stress of the sitch may cause blindness and that poor freshman walking behind you falls to the ground a lot faster and harder than you’d think.

DO look good – What better way to make the guy feel like the a-hole he is than by reminding him what he’s missing out on?  Of course, there’s always the chance that you’re going to run into him when you’re least expecting it, like at Starbucks first thing in the morning before you’ve had a chance to shower and you’re still wearing sweatpants and last night’s makeup. In that case, just be extra charming and act like nothing is bothering you at all, making him wonder why he let you go in the first place and his new girl wonder why she isn’t as laid back and cool as you are. (Also, hold onto that coffee really tight; your nerves could get the best of you and dumping a scalding hot Mocha on the new girl could not only be seen as a little insensitive, but is also a waste of some damn good coffee.)

Candy Dish: The Oscar Nominations Are Out

The Inauguration red carpet was more glamorous than the Golden Globes!

It’s a new semester and a time to make some changes.

Not everyone loves Slumdog Millionaire.

Looks like someone’s riding the Obama coattails.

Avoid hibernation this winter season.

It’s been confirmed: Sex and the City sequel!

Cute and cheap shoe? Where do we sign up?


Ellen Page: 20 Years Old and the Best Actress in Hollywood?

wi12597020_ellen-page-sundance-film-festival.jpg“It’s hard to wrap my head around,” says Ellen Page of her recent Best Actress Oscar nomination for “Juno.”

Hard to wrap her head around, indeed, but not so hard for those of us who have seen the film. I’d give Page the award in a heartbeat, plus, it’s so refreshing for me to see someone who is not either a) over the age of 60 or b) oozing blonde hair and tan lotion up for the honor.

Oh yeah, and did I mention that she’s 20 years old? While the rest of us 20-year-olds are cramming for exams and floundering on our cramped dorm beds, Ellen Page is searching for a gown to wear to the Oscars, where she just might become the youngest recipient ever of the Best Actress award.

Marlee Matlin, with a win at the age of 21, currently holds that honor for her 1986 win in “Children of a Lesser God.” And Keisha Castle-Hughes is the youngest-ever nominee, at the age of 13 for “Whale Rider” in 2003.

With a February 21st birthday, Page will be three days into the age of 21 (her golden birthday!) on Oscar night. Though she says she isn’t a big drinker, I guess we’ll find out how true that is if she bags the award.

Listening to her interviews, Page sounds excited about the nomination, but not psyched. I’m wagering she doesn’t think she’ll win–and given the miserly attitude of the nomination committee, she’s probably right.

But what do CC readers think?

Could she really take the little golden statue home?


No Scribes for Globes and Oscars

wga strike

With the writer’s strike still going strong, the WGA has denied invitations to prepare material for the Golden Globes on January 13 and the Oscars in February. If both events didn’t seem crappy enough last time, they should be craptacular this time around.

(See what happens when you don’t get pros to make jokes for you?)

This situation raises a red flag for the Oscars in particular. With Jon Stewart returning as host it’s assumed that he will have to “wing it” without any writer’s assistance. Sure, Stewart can handle a fair share of improvisation – but an entire show? That’s a tall order. Read More »
