After last year's Academy Award ceremonies, Jimmy Kimmel introduced us to 'Movie: The Movie,' a faux film trailer now holding over 20 million views. And last night, with the 2013 ceremonies freshly in our rearview, the host did it again with 'Movie: The Movie: 2V.'

The Onion Gets a Well-Deserved Smackdown + Apologizes for Calling Quvenzhane Wallis the C-Word

Cassandra Rose — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 16:32:24 +0000

We expected well-known satirical news site the Onion to take some pot-shots during the 2013 Oscars, but we never expected them to refer to 9-year-old Best Actress nominee Quvenzhané Wallis as a not very nice word that, as the closing song joked, rhymes with Helen Hunt.

Cassandra Rose — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 14:10:30 +0000

Daniel Day-Lewis won the Best Actor Oscar for ‘Lincoln‘ — his third such trophy, which set a new record.

The 2013 Oscar for Best Closing Goes to the 'Here's to the Losers' Tribute Song [VIDEO]

Kathy Landin — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 05:59:03 +0000

After a rather entertaining open to the 2013 Oscars, host Seth MacFarlane clearly didn’t want it to end with just the hurried list of sponsors and the usual “let’s get to your local news as quickly as possible even though we just sucked 4 hours of your life away” attitude of the closing.

How do we know that? Because he made sure there was a really awesome closing song.

Dedicated to the evening’s losers.

Michelle Obama and Jack Nicholson, who, aside from their awesomeness couldn't be more different, announced the winner for Best Picture at the 2013 Oscars -- and it was none other than 'Argo.'

And though he could have, Ben Affleck didn't rub anyone's nose in it. He's a much better person than we are.

Jessica Sager — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 05:14:14 +0000

Jennifer Lawrence didn't beat Meryl this time ... but only because Streep wasn't nominated for anything at the 2013 Oscars. Instead, J-Law beat Jessica Chastain, Quvenzhané Wallis, Naomi Watts and Emmanuelle Riva to win Best Actress.

And she fell down.

2013 Oscars – Barbra Streisand Sublimely Sings 'The Way We Were' for 'In Memoriam' [VIDEO]

Cassandra Rose — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 05:01:04 +0000

The much anticipated “In Memoriam” segment of the 2013 Oscars had us wondering one thing: “Where’s Barbra Streisand?” Not because we’re horrible people and wished her dead — but because it took a while for Her Highness to make her much-anticipated entrance. The annual tribute to the deceased members of the film world (actors, directors, [...]

Adele Brings the House Down With 'Skyfall' at the 2013 Oscars [VIDEO]

Jessica Sager — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 04:23:26 +0000

The 2013 Oscars were business as usual for Adele. And by “business as usual,” we mean “she slayed and acted like it was nothing.” With her flowing strawberry blond hair down instead of in her usual bouffant, the British chanteuse looked looser than ever, and her performance of the Oscar-winning ‘Skyfall’ reflected as much. Owning [...]

Watch Jennifer Hudson Kill It at the 2013 Oscars

Emerald Catron — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 04:14:48 +0000

Since the “theme” for the 2013 Academy Awards is music in movies, it makes sense that Oscar-winner Jennifer Hudson would be called upon to perform the big number from the movie that won her the prize, ‘Dreamgirls.’ Here she is singing a bit of ‘And I’m Telling You.’ This number followed a pretty jazzed-up bit [...]

Everyone saw it coming, but that doesn’t make it any less thrilling: Anne Hathaway won Best Supporting Actress at the 2013 Oscars for her heartbreaking work in Tom Hooper’s ‘Les Miserables.’ Although the role of Fantine is small when compared to others in the film, Hathaway’s performance of the iconic “I Dreamed a Dream’ is [...]

Nick Romano — Mon, 14 Jan 2013 03:00:33 +0000

Comedienne duo Tina Fey and Amy Poehler tag teamed the 2013 Golden Globes and all we can say is -- thank God, Ricky Gervais didn't get the gig. Poehler warned us in the latest issue of EW that she was planning on making Daniel Day-Lewis cry, but her and her co-host almost made us tear up with their bits on Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway and Kathryn Bigelow, to name a few.

If you were somehow dosing off during the 2013 Golden Globes opening monologue or not watching the ceremony at all, you can now watch it in full after the break.

Jeremy Taylor — Sun, 11 Mar 2012 19:07:05 +0000

Something very important happened between the time when Jonah Hill first hosted ‘Saturday Night Live‘ in 2008 and when he did for the second time last night — the 28-year-old was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for his role in ‘Moneyball.’ Although he ultimately lost to Christopher Plummer, apparently the nomination had gone to Hill’s head just a little bit.
