AC360° Producer/Writer
Starting tonight at 7 p.m. ET join us here for the AC360° Academy Awards Live Blog. The winners, the losers, the debate over Best Supporting Kardashian…we’ve got your running commentary. And sure, considering all that’s going on in the world, the Oscars aren’t hugely important. But if you’re looking to get away from the bleak news-of-the-day for a few hours, then this blog is the place for you.
We should also point out that we’re not encouraging you to change the channel from CNN, but if you’re going to watch the Oscars anyway, you might as well watch them with us.
What makes me qualified to lead this live blog? Well, I once worked at a video store/tanning parlor. And I own Fletch on VHS.
If you would like to participate in our Live Blog (and we hope you do) please follow our rules.
Here are some of them:
1) Please keep your comments short
2) Don’t write in ALL CAPS (we don’t like screaming)
3) No links
4) Use your real name
Please note that due to volume we may not be able to post all comments.

Congratulations Monique!!!
I'm just not into SJP's look tonight.
New York represent!! - Tom Ford and Sarah Jessica Parker....good looking duo!
I'm bored now. Can we get to the rest of the important categories? And why didn't they have performances of nominees of best song this year?
Ben was funny. Hope Kate wins.
Mo'NIQUE!!!! YESSSS! I am super proud and she deserved it!!! AWESOME
Tom Ford and SJP! yes!!!!
At least the co-hosts are funny
I know it's cheesy, but I'm laughing at Martin and Baldwin...hee.
Tomorrow we are all going to demand the 5 hours oscar took away from our lives
Please give Sandra Bullock her award soon...I don't think I can handle a tribute to horror films while I'm waiting for the Best Actress award.
Monique...so deserved it. Here speech will cause some stirs but who cares. Samuel Jackson made such a crazy face.
AVATAR + 1 Best Art Direction , YAY!
Yea, how come Samuel Jackson made that face?
Sigourney Weaver is so well!!!!
Yawn. Someone needs to streak to liven this thing up.
Had all of the "fun" I can take! Going to look for something better on TV! Probably would have sooner if wasn't for the convo's here!
Is that an alien S, Weaver has on her shoulder?
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww MONIQUE
@Stacy from NJ: Naw, I'll only be satisfied with the full-on Halle Berry treatment. Heh.
Sig = big red!
Sigourney Weaver has played an alien so many different times I sort of wonder if she is one.
was that kate goslin on the next DWTS??? I'm going to throw up.
@Jodio
I agree. Glad she won, amazing performance...but her speech had a seriousness about the film that I didn't feel. Would it really not have been a hit had Tyler Perry and Oprah not endorsed it? I disagree.
@Amy – I agree Miley's dress was beautiful. Queen L. was gorgeous!
I loved Mo'Nique's speech...I know some people think she's a bit dramatic but it comes off so sincerely with her.
Gee, the beautiful set is awfully blue... Avatar wins big picture spoiler alert maybe???
With Precious doing so well, i would love to see Lee Daniels beat out James Cameron...shout out for Philly!
Congratulations Monique!
Great speech by Mo'nique.
Way to go Mo'nique!
I knew Mo'Nique was going to win. That was a powerful performance in "Precious."
Worst oscars ever. So boring. It is a production train wreck. Turning off the mic on winners to cut time?? Lame. And what about the thank you cam? Scratched that idea? Averaging 1 award per commercial break? So bored. MTV awards were better.
Monique!!!!! Yay!!!!!! She is best deserved to win!!!!!
Ah, Darcy... er, uh, Colin... great hair
Maryland in the house......way to go Mo'nique!
I'm glad M'Onique won–I don't know if I liked the politics comment–not saying it is not true (not saying it is) I just thought it came off wrong What do others think?
Did you see Samuel Jackson make that face?
Great speech by Mo'nique. Loved the shout-out to Hattie McDaniel...great tribute to a major Oscar milestone.
Mo'nique???
I have not seen, but there are great comments about!
Standing O for Monique!
@Stacy from St. Louis – You should get your crying now. :o)
She did it – Mo'Nique!!
Monique – predictable and awesome!
oh my god...this footage of Precious is too heavy!! great performance Monique!
The supporting actress nominees are more brilliant than they've been in a very long time. I'm fascinated by this group.
the thing i like most about maggie is her brother
yes! to Lauren Bacall. She looks amazing!
@Amy you said it perfectly, great dress – but definately not for a 16 year old!!!
Monique???
