Best Oscar Moment
An entertaining moment in an otherwise lack luster awards ceremony. Yes, Mark Walhberg is pretty bad a$$ 😉 And I like it. And did anyone else realise the total lack of hairstyle on just about every blonde at the ceremony? Maybe limp, straight, bodyless hair is in this year. And for the love of god…
