The Money Shot

Dave here, just noting that the finest moment of last night surely came before the ceremony had even begun. When the star of Precious met the somehow ever-present Ryan Seacrest (tell me, Americans, is he on every single show you have?)...

"If fashion was porn, this dress is the money shot."

Gabourey Sidibe might not have won the Oscar many might claim should have been hers (I begrudge Sandra Bullock nothing, but count me in that camp), and maybe she'll never be back here again, but with lines like that her wish to move into comedy - with TINA FEY (please pay attention Tina) - makes more sense than anything else I heard last night. Let's hope she doesn't sink into obscurity; or, worse, take over from Queen Latifah. (That girl's getting old after all.)
