I am not sure in my years of watching the Oscars I have quite felt the incredible hilarity that I felt when Angelina Jolie sauntered up to the podium to present an Oscar last Sunday. I watched in awe and shocked horror as she tried and tried again to pose herself JUST right so that her right leg would be exposed outside of her gown. Now, when she walked across the stage we all saw her leg out there.... that was ok... very attractive. When you stand like a Flamingo and make it so ridiculously OBVIOUS that you are trying to stick your leg out.... because you think it looks good..... that was just OVER the top!
Here is an article I've copied so you can see "the leg".... THE best part here, when the Oscar was announced the winners came up to the stage and Jim Rash quite HILARIOUSLY exposed his leg... well, sort of! I almost fell off the couch!!! Apparently her leg has become a twitter sensation!!! I love people!!!
Here is the article:
In a sea of black garb, the toned and trim leg – visible from ankle to thigh – was hard to miss, thanks to the actress’ exaggerated pose. And as if it weren’t visible enough, the appendage took to Twitter to call attention to itself. @AngiesRightLeg was quickly set up by an enterprising viewer, tweeting calls to Oscar watchers to “look at meeee” and “check me out!”
By the end of the show, the just-launched account was quickly closing in on 10,000 followers. Since Angelina’s dress was rather boring, we had to have something to talk about, right?
And the leg laughs didn’t stop once the red carpet was rolled up. Jolie ascended the stage to present an award, stopping conspicuously to pose with her leg jutting out. Noting this, screenwriter Jim Rash, upon accepting the best adapted screenplay award for The Descendants, struck a pose like hers. Fortunately he showed no skin, but the comparison was unmistakable. Next up: the Oscar for best supporting limb?
