The biggest red carpet event of awards season, the Oscars, was not halted by the writer’s strike and the biggest “parade of stars and the designers they wear” did take place this year. For your viewing Pleasure…. A gallery of pictures of many of the 80th Academy Awards attendees as they arrive on the red carpet. Choose your favorites - the fashion hits and the fashion misses before the style pundits weigh in as is the ‘tradition’ for these glamorous events.
The Oscar red carpet arrivals are moments away and just as the glitz and glamour take work behind the scenes to have the whole event hum along smoothly, a website has to have the ‘engine’ behind what you see on a website run smoothly. I am far from a developer and have been working to rid the bugs from the software that powers this site. Let’s hope things work at least for a while….maybe then I’ll have the pictures up for the Academy Awards Red Carpet arrivals! Here are the red carpet pictures from the 2008 Screen Actors Guild Awards as a test run.

The SMH Style and Gifting Suite for the Oscars put a million in loaner jewels on star’s bodies for that red carpet sparkle and a $10,000 goodie bag with vacation trips for that post-Oscar getaway. Best thing was the Turtle Cell Phone watches with MP3 and video. Look out Dick Tracy, these are more than the latest gee-whiz gadget — they work! See the full story and interviews with Oscar nominees like Depp, Blanchett, Day-Lewis and Bardem at www.hollywoodtoday.net. And tune in for up to the second reporting on Oscar Day!
While you are on the iVillage.com website, see if you agree with the consensus for the best (and worst) looks on the red carpet at the 2007 BET Awards. The celebs pictured below were voted as overall best fashion winners in their Best & Worst Dressed poll. My vote for top honors would be a tie between Kelly Rowland and Rihanna.
