With quality comedy ideas like this, it's insane they aren't enthused by his hosting presence!

Wait, Lily Easton has a tramp stamp? What is this, 2003?

Cute!

Oh hai.

Who is this?

Cindy + Maggie =

Bo + swimwear = win.

Her IG has been a tiny bit more active recently than it usually is. I hope this means she'll start using it more and more!

Big fan of Renée but I'm still kind of waiting for a signature photoshoot, the kind of stuff we'll still remember in five years time. I just feel she has a whole other level to go.

Kate is above average lookswise but this is diminished by her rather cold exterior.

I think her nose is cute!

No need to hold back on my account. If you think it's totally immaterial to the U.S. standing in the world to have imagery broadcast around the globe worthy of a banana republic, then I guess I can't explain to you why that is wrong either.

I was talking about how it was experienced abroad. Whether or not cops were complicit or whatever doesn't change the damaging imagery that was broadcast around the world. Every undemocratic regime was very happy with that image of America.

I don't see how the fact that some cops might have been complicit changes how this was perceived around the world...

I think people in the U.S. underestimate how shocking the January 6th insurrection was. The most powerful democracy in the world having their seat of power successfully overtaken by a mob. It was imagery associated with say young South-American democracies, not the supposed Shining City upon a hill.

Sarah + HB = 🔥 Always. They would be dumb not to work with her for as long as she is interested in the gig.

Beautiful in bridal gowns!

In general I think the Oscars are in the same boat as SISE. Whilst some of their decline might be due to the people currently in charge of them, it was also somewhat inevitable with how the times and culture had changed. So I doubt very much SISE can ever attain the culture significance it once had again, even with a new creative team in charge. Likewise, whatever tone the Oscars employ "woke" or not, they are never going to enthuse current young generations for a stuffy old awards show. It is what it is, you aren't going to make Zoomers sit down for 3 hours to watch a show that was pretty boring even in its heyday.

We are still using it here in Belgium and we would have been very grateful to get those jabs.

*shrugs* In general young people seem to care less about the Oscars and other awards shows like it. It's not even about their political preference. Zoomers just DGAF about that stuff, broadly speaking.

Oscars broadcast being historically low might also be due to no one going to the movies in over a year. And it's been dropping steadily for years now. I think one of its main issues is an aging audience, I hardly know anyone in his twenties who cares at all about the Oscars.

Christen & Liz together is always

She helped out during the height of the outbreak. I wonder if the positive press she got because of that actually helped the leap she seemed to have made this year?

I just find it odd it took this long for people to figure out her potential?

I mean, I'm not in favor of "abolish the police", so not sure what you are trying to argue exactly. I just think if you are Ilhan Omar, AOC, ... and you don't have some form of protection, you are being reckless.
