"And then, Al Gore is here, America did vote for him, and then ... very complicated."

Loved that line from Ellen last night at the Oscars:

"There's no rhyme or reason to who's going to win," DeGeneres said. "Jennifer Hudson was on 'American Idol,' America didn't vote for her, and she's here with an Oscar nomination. That's amazing.

"And then, Al Gore is here, America did vote for him, and then ... very complicated."

1. I saw Carrie Fisher's name in the credits at the end

Wonder if she came up with that one. Sounds like her humor. Also thought the "without Jews, Blacks and Gays, there wouldn't be any Oscars. Also no one named Oscar." line was pretty funny

[helderheid]

2. I applauded that one!

3. And the gag of Gore beginning to make an announcement and then being cut off by the music was

a masterpiece. It's clear from the applause Gore got who Hollywood would back, I think.

4. My husband and I were howling at that! It was GREAT!

[aquart]

5. Because Hollywood isn't made up of individuals with separate opinions?

[helderheid]

6. ehm, the Oscars were in Hollywood, where a roaring round of applause came from

:shrug:
