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.

Jay Manuel and Julianna raving about J-lo's dress but looks like styrofoam to me.
Miley Cyrus is at the Oscars for the THIRD time?! And she's PRESENTING?! Yawn.
Ahh..I wish I can watch it now!!! hehe.. 🙂
@ jack Gray
Sammy is watching the Oscar too?
Mo'Nique pulled her performance from a dark place in her life! That in itself deserves an Oscar!
Is there really debate going on to not have two categories seperating actors and actresses? Ryan Seacrest has jsut called the past two ladies actors.....
Love Robert Downey Jr!!!!
Best Actress: Gaby or Sandra. Both deserve it.
Meryl Streep and Helen Mirren looks nice..
Jack, this is an amazing forum – thank you for sharing this experience!
I love Gabbie
Jack i hope you and sammy are waering matching zebra pattern snuggies ha!
Sandra Bullock is very elegant, but the makeup is strong!
Gabourey is so pretty, she pulls off her size so well. I hope she loses weight for her health thoguh
Michelle D. Fonthill .Ont,
I agree! 🙂
Keanu really needs to learn how to grow a beard or shave!
Hi, Jack. I come prepared. Want to share some Twizzlers? Don't worry. It's not from your 401k. ^_^
J Lo looks great too I like Sandra;s hair it's smooth and straight .
Does anyone know where Sandra Bullock got her dress? I heard she was looking at JC Penny, but never got a confirmation on that one.
Steve Martin and Alec Badwin are my favorite actors! They made me laugh so hard, They are so funny men I have seen!
Kristin Stweart is rockin that black dress....needesd a lil bling tho
It'll be a lot of fun and interesting to see two hosts for tonight's event . Though I enjoyed watching Hugh Jackman do it in the past.
Good evening Jack and bloggers!!!
It's very fun to watch the Oscar with you all here!
@Jack Gray
Thanks for the live blog, Jack!
I'm right there with you on the ice cream, Jack. Make it anything with peanut butter or oreos!
Zoe Saldana has been fave so far! Some of the fashion has been a mystery.
I'm predicting.... The Hurt Locker, Bullock, Bridges, Cameron, Waltz and Gylenhaal
Ahhh Jack and the oscars, life is good 🙂 Jack is Sammy got the wine ready!?
Michelle D. Fonthill .Ont,
I hope Avatar will!!!!!! I agree! It says winner Avatar!
What about for song catagory Lenny Kravitz is he nominated ?
Who is the freaky guy on E News with the grey spiked hair and the black velvet floral jacket?
Zac Efron looks like Ray Liotta...hahaha!
Everyone looks nice.
Wendy – wouldn't we all!!
I just saw "The Blind Side" last night. Sandra Bullock was very good.
J Lo looks amazing!!!
Sandra Bullock's dress is nice, simple and sexy! KUDOS! Now, I question the hair though..
Jlo loooks gorgeous in that color, omg..
Wow! "I saw it in the window and I just had to have it!"
Hi Jack! Meryl Streep was ur fav. last year or 2 years ago?oops it seems i'm getin' 2 old for memories.
Meryl Strep looks like shes wearing a FITTEDSNUGGIE! Im sorry! But I dont agree!
looks very crowded!
why is Demi Moore wearing a skin colored gown???
why is Myly Cyrus and J.Lo there, really? kind of not there league...
@Megan D.
I agree with you on Avitar it will win best picture tonight for sure !
Joel Madden will be DJing for those in the theater in between commercials. The goal is to keep the mood up as it gets later in the show.
Anyone seen Rod Blagojevich, yet?
Stunning Queen Latifah!!
Go Queen Latifa!! Meryl Streep looks like she's wearing a robe!!!
Only because its the oscars I busted out the designer zebra snuggie.
It feels a little unfair that "Up" is nominated for both Best Picture and Best Animated Film. Maybe I'm just bitter that an animated film unexpectedly made me tear up.
Hello Jack!
What a night for me watch my favorite movies!!!!!!
I'd like to share my leopard print Snuggie with George Clooney.
