And the Oscars go to…

The 80th Academy Awards would probably be the “it” event in Hollywood for the year as it gathers all the brightest stars in the movie industry. However, I must admit that despite all the glitters and shimmers of this event, I haven’t really been a follower until I decided to make blogging a career.

For this year, the highlights of the event is divided in to three (as usual); the Red Carpet; where all the media feast into the Oscar looks of the celebrities, the show; where the anticipation and expectations take place, and the announcement of the winners; this is an awards night after all, right?!

So who bagged the trophies for this year’s Oscar’s?
