Let’s hope this doesn’t happen

The Academy Awards is tonight and it is a tight race for the coveted Best Actress statuette. Although I think all of the nominees are talented women, I am a life-long member of the ‘Meryl Streep needs to win another Oscar’ Club so I will be rooting for Ms. Streep. If she doesn’t win, this will most likely be my reaction.

Who do you think will win for Best Actress/Best Actor/Best Picture?

Meryl Monday: Meryl wins BAFTA for The Iron Lady

It was a fairytale moment at the BAFTA Awards when Mr. Darcy retrieved Meryl’s lost shoe then slipped it on her foot before she delivered her acceptance speech.

On a separate note, anyone else insanely jealous of Shailene Woodley? She gets to be in a movie with George Clooney AND sit in front of the legendary Meryl Streep at the BAFTA Awards. Unfair!
