The 5 Creepiest Oscar Moments: A Cringe-Inducing Recap Of Last Night.

CB056255

Oscar night for me is like Superbowl night for real men.

Or for women who are more manly than I.

Of which there are a lot of.

Hilarious.

If you didn’t watch the Oscars last night, I will briefly summarize the experience for you by compiling five of the creepiest moments.

1. Mo’nique Over-Thanking Her Husband As He Stared At Her Like He Gave Birth To Her.

I know Mo’nique was brilliant in Precious, but really.

Do you have to thank your husband that much?  Every second with the I want to thank my husband.

And then he just sits there, staring at her, blinking.

Bizarre.

Mo'nique's Husband/Creator.

2. Ben Stiller Going A Real Long Way For An Avatar Joke.

Imagine searching for a laugh within a weak premise.

Now imagine doing it in full Avatar makeup and costume.

That’s what this was like.  I heard Sacha Baron Cohen bailed out on this sketch a few days before the ceremony.

I wonder why.

Stiller presses on as Cohen laughs in the background.

3. The How Old Is Miley Cyrus Again?  Because She Looks Pretty Ho– Wait-That’s-Gross Moment.

This is cringe-inducing mostly for me, because I’m 29, fat, unemployed and still live with my parents.  But Miley did look pretty tremendous last night.

I am now a fan of whatever it is she does.

Music?

I’m going with music.

Ladies? How much do you want this.

4. You Can Totally Tell Macaulay Culkin Is Pissed That Every Time He’s Anywhere, He Has To Reference Himself In Home Alone.

He’ll be sixty-five years old at a comic book convention in Seguin, TX and have people ask him to do the after-shave “ahhhh” scene.

And why not?

That movie was the shit.

5. Did Someone Just Kanye That Dude?

There was a moment during the Oscars where this guy was accepting an award.  I think it was for best documentary short, or as I like to call it, The You Can Flip To Family Guy While Eating Cheese Cubes Because Nobody Cares About This Award Award.

Only I didn’t.

And I was rewarded.

This one dude accepted his Oscar, started his speech and then was totally Kanye’d by this old chick who took over the mic! It was awesome because I thought she was just a random fan or something.

I went upstairs to tell my mom to turn it on because this chick is stealing an Oscar. I found out later she was actually a producer on the movie that didn’t get along with the original dude.

So, a half-Kanye.

There you go.

Now you don’t have to watch the Oscars.

You can unfollow me on Twitter for hinting that Miley Cyrus is attractive here.

Until next year.

    And I thought I was the only wuss that liked Miley Cyrus! Cool!
  • I'm glad I didn't watch the oscars and watched 28 days later on sci fi. Sounds like they were both equally creepy.

    Thanks for the laughs!
  • Ha ha! I was totally taken aback with the woman who Kanye'd that guy. I thought she was going to beat him with the Oscar! LOL.
  • On target as usual, one thing that was missing however was the Clooney thing? WTH was going on with him and his freaky facial expressions? Did I miss something? Inside joke? Was he drunk?? I'd love to know because it was kind of distracting...Glad to see you back TN :) Stellar postyness!

    Clooney was being mock-angry because Alex Baldwin was giving him mock-angry looks as Steve Martin pretended to ignore him. But yeah, it looked weird.
  • omg, i saw how that guy got kanye'd. that was hysterical. i love that you made kanye a verb.
  • Entertaining post. There were many more creepy moments too. Also, why was George Cloony looking so angry when Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin were talking about him?

    What did Sandra Bullock say to Meryl Streep right before she accepted the Oscar?
  • ontheotherhand
    I disagree with your choice to describe the interrupting woman as "old." She didn't look any older than Helen Mirren, James Cameron or Jeff Bridges...and I don't see anyone describing them as "old." Perhaps "pushy" might have been more accurate?

    The same people that ran security for the White House must have run security for the Oscars.

    also cringe-worthy for us in Canada - ben mulroney interviewing the stars on the red carpet. and not just any given interview. all of it. two hours of cringe-worthy ridiculousness.
