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.

Can you picture driving down Hollywood Boulevard in a red Bentley convertible? As a celebrity, they treat you like a spoiled rotten kid. You see, big businesses give celebrities fancy toys in return for coveted endorsements.

Compared to Apple, Google, and Microsoft CEOS, celebrity perks are miniscule. However, compared to everyday midsize homeowners, celebrities are living in paradise. If you want luxury goods and services, get famous.

Now imagine getting chauffeured in your white stretch limousine at midnight. Upon arrival, you’re escorted to the VIP section of the world’s finest nightclub. Not only have you danced with Michael Ealy tonight, you posed for pictures with Rosario Dawson.

Before going back to reality, promise to realize dreams come true. At some point in their lives, Michael Ealy and Rosario Dawson dreamt of becoming movie stars. They didn’t instantly wake up and become overnight celebrities.

Dawson and Ealy paid their dues, and that’s why they’re excellent actors. Have you seen 2008’s Seven Pounds with Dawson and Ealy? I highly recommend the movie because of the brilliant casting and riveting script.

Although they’re onscreen characters didn’t interact a lot in the movie, Michael Ealy and Rosario Dawson work well together. Plus, Michael and Rosario represent diversity, which Hollywood lacks, according to the Oscars host Neil Patrick Harris. Regardless of whether this is true or not, clearly Ealy and Dawson deserve acknowledgements and accolades.

Actresses… pay close attention to Rosario Dawson’s techniques. Rosario succeeds in supporting roles because of her beauty and personality. For instance, in Marvel’s Daredevil she befittingly plays a complimentary nurse.

Now 35, Rosario Dawson is one of the best supporting actresses in her cohort. Still, would they mind letting Rosario take the lead more? Dawson is definitely capable of handling responsibility.

Furthermore, Steve Harvey Nation constituents enjoy Michael Ealy’s performance in Think Like a Man. You’ll find Ealy has an impressive filmography. Amazingly, the actor is getting better.

In a nutshell, Michael Ealy and Rosario Dawson are fulfilling the Hollywood dream.

Is Mark Wahlberg Getting Snubbed?

Who are your top 10 favorite actors? Did the best actors get snubbed at the Golden Globes? I think award committees should nominate more Mark Wahlberg movies.

Is Wahlberg a product of his own success? With a $200 million net worth, the multi-talented celebrity is easily targeted. Indeed, the cash rich actor doesn’t need their charity.

In comparison, Ben Affleck is worth a measly $75 million. In my opinion, Mark Wahlberg would make a more convincing Batman than Ben Affleck. In fact, Affleck’s best friend Matt Damon would fit better into the Dark Knight’s armory. Consequently, fans will compare Ben Affleck with Birdman Michael Keaton forever.

Unfortunately, Hollywood is a wild political animal in need of taming. Reports say that Mark was offered the Robin role. Come on, that’s a Joker. Wahlberg is clearly a natural lead actor. He isn’t anybody’s sidekick.

Affleck schmoozes and mingles with the elite and that’s how Benny affords a jetpack. All actors brownnose but Benjamin is deeply connected and highly influential. Fortunately, Mark Wahlberg is a very important person.

Winners associate with winning. Even New York Yankee season ticketholders revere Boston native Mark Wahlberg. Regardless of their personal preferences people respect the best.

Have you seen the ‘Departed?’ Martin Scorsese directs an amazing cast, which includes Wahlberg. Because of impeccable directing and acting, the movie received multiple Academy Awards.

Without Wahlberg, Hollywood would experience an economic collapse. The red carpet would turn navy blue. Seriously, Mark Wahlberg created lasting opportunities for the next generation of actors, musicians, and producers.

‘The Gambler’ rolls dice and plays Russian roulette. In addition, the celebrity takes over the ‘Transformers’ franchise. Any picture the actor attaches himself to gets photo shopped.

The detractors will say Mark Wahlberg’s mainstream and commercial. And, they’re right. But, Wahlberg handles business. He is one of the best. Yes, Hollywood is snubbing Mark because they’re secretly jealous.
