1. Anne Hathaway is cute. And SOOOO annoying. Really annoying. Too much. "Whoooooo" Everytime you introduce someone, you need not shout "Wooooo!!!!" into the microphone.
2. All of the presenters look WASTED- especially Javier Bardem.
3. Trent Reznor won an Oscar. ha. awesome. AND he was shockingly "normal". That' the same guy who wants to "F&#@ you like an animal", right?
4. "You've Got a Friend in Me" was good. NO MORE. No more Randy Newman. That 127 Hours song was amazing and Randy Newman wins for a FORGETTABLE tune from yet another Pixar movie. yawn.
5. I'm bored. This is the most boring oscars ever. I miss Alec and Steve.
6. Bob Hope footage= fun Bob Hope hologram= creepy.
7. And Billy Crystal? There are an awful lot of reminders about how great past Oscar hosts have been. Making that bored audience jealous is mean.
8. Anne Hathaway... ugh. Do you have to be so "amazed" about EVERYONE you introduce?! We get it. You're young. Its exciting. Calm the F down.
9. Natalie Portman is adorable. I want to be her friend.
10. 10 is too many. too many movies. Too many.

The Ultimate Horrible Awful Christmas Song of the Day (for Carrie...)
Alright kids. Get out your hankies. I saved this for last because it is crazy. Any bad Christmas song list usually has this as its number 1.
Enjoy.
So the story is a real tearjerker from a TV movie that I'm sure my lady ass would end up crying at. But the VIDEO... featuring the future hall of famers "Newsong"... the video parts of it are most disturbing. With creepy red scarf guy belting his little heart out and his 4 creepy friends just lurking around him. Weeeeiiiird. I understand that they're a "band" (I guess) and they didn't want to leave them out even though they do NOTHING in the whole song... but come on.
Maybe they're the voices in the children's chorus at the end...
Anyway, MERRY CHRISTMAS, friends. I'm going to have to find something else to write about...

Horrible Awful Christmas Song of the Day
I'm sorry. Travel has gotten me off track. But here's a doozy for you-
First things first...
Christian is not a 3 syllable word! For real... whose idea was that?
My other problems include, but are not limited to, the following...
feel free to add your own comments. There are so many awesome things about this song, but the video really is also a conversation piece.
Merry Christmas.
:)

- Weird solo in the break??? someone singing??
- Crazy magna-doodle graphics
- Ha. Dramatic gong banging. Ha. Ha. Ha.
- Wacky swaying dance at the end...

Horrible Awful Christmas Song of the Day
Nothing says Christmas like a really sexy, breathy tune about the birth of baby Jesus.
I love how Jess throws away the ends of phrases and just makes crazy words (or lapses into babytalk) instead of just FINISHING AND SINGING THE RIGHT VOWELS!!! "When Christ was bown?" "Manjah?"
The video direction is not helping her either. The close up shots of her delicately fingering the mic stand or brushing her hands up against her body are not very... well, holy.

Horrible Awful Christmas Song of the Day
Well, this is just lazy on my part...
but here's the mellow sounds of the sax...
(what's also fun on most of these crappy crap fests is to read the comments on you tube of the people who actually like it...yikes.)

Horrible Awful Christmas Song of the Day (for Julia...)
Um...ok. Wilson Phillips has a new Christmas album out. 15-20 years ago this would have been very exciting to me. The horrible (I think) "original" tune on the album, "Warm Lovin' Christmastime" was not on you tube. But how about a live performance of a Christmas classic...
I appreciate the idea: Ladies. 3-part harmony. Holiday cheer. And its fine. Almost all of the notes are there. But it is labored. And lame. And Robin Roberts is scarily singing along. And it feels like it could fall apart at any second. And Chynna needs the key to be lowered. And Carnie is standing like she's about to drop a load on the stage. And Carnie... lets NOT scat.
Remember Carnie's talk show?
