Guess Who’ll Win the Oscars & You Could WIN Too!
on February 1st, 2012 at 10:08 am
- Oscar, himself.
As most movie goers know, or should know, the much anticipated Oscar nominees for the 84th Annual Academy Awards were announced last Tuesday, January 24th. While most of the nominees were to be expected, there were definitely some surprises, like, HELLO where was Ryan Gosling for Drive? Well he’s already won best actor, according to me. Either way, Oscar night will definitely prove to be an exciting one, full of glitz and glamor, Hollywood style. Nothing is too over the top for these people.
