John Travolta looked like a freak, with his cheeks so big they almost squeeze his eyes shut, and wearing the worst hairpiece I've ever seen. If he's going to use a hairpiece, use a GOOD one, not one that looks so shiny it's almost blinding.

Can't you go one day without critiquing someone's appearance? And it's never a good critique!


Not when everyone else is doing it {#emotions_dlg.lol}

So it's okay because everyone is doing it? Really?

I cannot believe even you would justify yourself this way.

The Liza joke is because Liza is one of the most often women copied by a male in the celebrity look alike shows!

It was not a slam AT Liza herself.

Of course it wasn't a SLAM at LIZA....however, the look on Liza's face, I don't believe she really caught the joke.

As a joke, it fell flat. I suspect if Ellen were honest, even she'd say she wasn't at her best with that comment. Lots of what she did was fun and/or funny. Not that.

I really believe you're right. She had a funny look on her face. I don't think she got it at all. {#emotions_dlg.ohmy}

Nope you could tell she was a little shocked.

Liza has always seemed to be fragile, that comment probably hurt her feelings. Ellen should have picked on someone more emotionally secure.

Bradley wanted to hold the phone so he could be front row center in the pic.

He tried to take the phone from Ellen & she said no, but he succeeded the 2nd time he tried. Did she even ask him to be in the pic? Did she ask Brad & Angie?

The pizza thing went on too long.


All one can see is Angelina's eyebrows. Somebody's brother thought it was more important for him to be seen. He might not have realized it, but he completely blocked her face.

Re: Ellen hosting the Oscars

I watch Ellen's show everyday and love it but I think she wasn't at her best hosting the AA. Her low key approach seemed lack luster and I didn't think her comments re: Liza M and also what she said after "" 12 yrs a Slave "" received best movie were appropriate. ( actually not even sure I understood the point ) She seemed nervous and flubbed some of her lines. The show just seemed way too long. At times she wouldn't come out on stage right away and some of the presenters seemed rushed or didn't really practice their lines. I mean seriously. Didn't someone clue John T in re: how to pronounce the singer's name? Bill Murray said "" The 2013 Academy Award ...goes to "" Isn't this 2014? Most of the awards were given after 2 hrs into the show. The selfies and pizza bits went on too long. I just wish the show had a faster pace as it seemed to drag on.

Re: Ellen hosting the Oscars

TMZ reported that Liza did not like the joke about her being a female impersonator even though she does not feel that it was done to be mean spirited.
