Last night Oscars had an amazing feel to it. This might have been the most memorable Oscars of all time. Without question, it certainly had the most controversial ending. Here’s a recap for you to enjoy.

The TV audience was treated to delightful arrivals on the Oscars Red Carpet. If you’re into style and fashion, then this was a special part of the show for you. Everybody was dressed in their absolute best dresses and tuxedos for this incredible celebration.

First, Justin Timberlake got the party started by singing Can’t Stop The Feeling to start the show. He and his wife Jessica Biel shared a magical moment on the dance floor. In fact, the whole crowd couldn’t stop the feeling. Next, host Jimmy Kimmel kept the jokes flowing throughout the evening. Of course he addressed his Matt Damon beef multiple times.

Later on, Mahershala Ali was awarded Best Actor in a Supporting Role for Moonlight. And Viola Davis won Best Actress in a Supporting Role for her performance in Fences. Jimmy Kimmel interrupted the award show by acting as a tour guide. He hilariously served as an intermediary between fans and celebrities.

In addition, Jimmy Kimmel kept everyone nourished by releasing candy, cookies, and donuts from the rafters. Nevertheless, it was a fun filled night. The stars shined and glowed.

Hacksaw Ridge took home the Academy Award for Sound Mixing. Meanwhile, the Oscar for Sound Editing was given to Arrival.Manchester By the Sea won the prestigious Best Original Screenplay, while Moonlight received the coveted Best Adapted Screenplay award.

Plus, Best Actor in a Leading Role was awarded to Casey Affleck for Manchester By The Sea. And Emma Stone received Best Actress in a Leading Role for La La Land. Finally, Moonlight won Best Picture after La La Land was wrongly announced the winner.

Could you feel the good vibrations on the red carpet last night?

Hopefully, you got a chance to watch the Emmy Awards. In this blog, we will experience it again. In case you missed it, you’ll also appreciate my recap.

To begin with, the interviews set the tone for the night. There was a little something for everybody. Are you much into fashion and style? Did you enjoy seeing the actresses and actors strutting their stuffs?

We saw John Travolta and Amy Schumerarrive on the scene. Naturally, Amy said something inappropriate. And Travolta was cool like he’s been- for the past 40 years.

The Emmys literally started up their engines as host Jimmy Kimmel hitchhiked with TV and showbiz’s biggest stars. To start it off, he got a little Carpool Karaoke for us from James Corden. Of course, Jimmy was kicked out of the car because of his bad singing. Other celebrities including Julia Louis-Dreyfus kicked him to the curb.

Entertainment award shows are the highlight of an entertaining season. After all that hard work, talent is rightly rewarded by the Television Academy. There were tons of winners Sunday- too many to name everyone.

Jeffrey Tambor was the talk of the Tinseltown because of his performance in Transparent. It seems Transparent owned the night. In fact, Jimmy Kimmel handed Tambor an Emmy when the show first started.

Tori Kelly sang a beautiful Hallelujah honoring the memories of those we lost this year ending with Prince. Louie Anderson won the first award. Were fans pleased to see Mr. Robot take home an Emmy or what? Plus, Game of Thrones and Veep were recognized with multiple wins.

Moreover, The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story won big. Courtney B. Vance and Sterling K. Brown took home Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor, respectively. You also saw Key & Peele receive their respects they paid dearly for on the comedic side. It’s all about sacrifice.

To be honest, the Emmys were dull but enjoyable with coffee. I don’t fault the nominees because the TV shows themselves are incredible. I suggest more music and/or better clips next time. Otherwise, Everything was all good.

Why Robin Thicke Is Superior

I remember the first time hearing Robin Thicke sing Lost Without You on the airwaves while driving to work. YouTube had just been invented and I was surprised when I watched the video, because I honestly thought Robin was African American. The next week I researched Robin Thicke like an employer investigating and screening potential workers.

Hence, the second Robin Thicke music video I watched was When I Get You Alone, a blatant sample of Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony. In the video, Robin’s long hair looked like Jesus’s hairdo. Thicke clearly passed the background check after much deliberation with family, friends, and coworkers.

The next time I shopped at Target, I purchased the Evolution of Robin Thicke CD. Till this day, I still periodically listen to the album. What is more, through the years Robin Thicke has stayed relevant by perfecting onstage performances and always crowd-pleasing.

By the way, the Evolution was certified platinum. Thicke should have received 5 Grammys but the Academy rather give Beck praises. Kanye West was right; giving Beck the Grammy for Best Album was an atrocity.

How can I best describe Robin’s unique sound? Robin Thicke sounds similar to Justin Timberlake, Usher, and the late great Joe Cocker. Still, Thicke has an original style separating him from his peers like the aforementioned musicians.

Robin Thicke doesn’t get his feathers ruffled because Thicke identifies with ordinary people. When Robin enters the studio booth, music is the only thing on his mind. That’s why I say, find something you’re passionate about, ride your love to the wheels fall off, and the money will eventually come provided you adequately prepared yourself.

What are your favorite Robin Thicke songs? I like Blurred Lines, Sex Therapy, and Magic the most. Digging up the musician’s catalog is like reading Treasure Island. Robin Thicke is superior because his smooth style captivates millions of gold-diggers.
