At 81 years of age, are the Oscars getting old and tired or becoming young and vigorous like Benjamin Button?

One thing’s for sure, the Oscars are still the Superbowl for the Gays!

Today we’re talking about the Oscars, presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for excellence in the film industry with the always hilarious Deven Green and Joel Bryant.

Deven and Joel entertain us with interviews from the red carpet, obnoxious celebrity antics and crazy shenanigans of the well-to-do.

Plus we have Peaches Christ, San Francisco’s favorite movie-making drag queen, talking about her appearance on the Oscars during the montage for the movie Milk. Just before they announced Dustin Lance Black as the winner for Best Original Sceenplay, they showed a montage of the film “Milk” with Peaches smack in the middle of all the action, chewing gum.

This was definitely the first year to watch the awards ceremony on a high definition TV set. For those of us with older sets, it was really hard to make out the small print on the screen. It’s a new age in TV viewing.

This year was superhunk Hugh Jackman’s first time hosting the awards ceremony, so should we give him a break or should we make him pay for the horrible musical numbers? I groaned through most of it and was kind of embarrassed for him. They probably hired him because he was a foreigner and not too familiar with the Oscars to know what a disaster they usually are. The plight of the immigrants in this country is so sad.

And why was he trying to make out with Frank Langella? If your gonna go gay, what’s wrong with Brad Pitt?

Tilda Swinton stole the show again with her fierce gender ambiguous hair and makeup and a gown that can be best described as a haute couture Snuggie from the waist up. Jessica Beal did give her a run for her money with her freaky sauna look. When did wearing a towel become fashion?

It seemed like all the ladies’ fashions looked like either Rami’s signature draped gowns or Leanne’s constructed works from the past two seasons of Project Runway. Is reality TV setting the fashion trend now?

One of our favorites parts of the Oscars is the “Remembrace Montage” or as we like to call it, “The Bring Out Your Dead” segment, but how could The Oscars forget Eartha Kitt? I know she did very few movies but was not her role in Boomerang worthy of a nod? Sexy Paul Newman closed it out with a poignant line from Tennessee William’s Sweet Bird of Youth, “The greatest difference between people in this word is not between rich and poor or good and the evil, the biggest of all differences in this world is between the ones that had or have pleasure in love and those that haven’t and hadn’t any pleasure in love.”

For me personally the highlight was “Milk” screenwriter Dustin Lance Black’s emotional acceptance speech brought a tear to many people’s eyes. I spoke earlier in the day to Cleve Jones, while the were putting on their tuxedoes, and Cleve put it all in perspective. He spoke to me about how Harvey Milk’s message will now forever be remembered in film. Young people everywhere will now know this groundbreaking political leaders story.

Don’t they look fantastic!? Click here to hear Dustin’s magnificent speech.
