Because Kristen Stewart presenting last time worked out so well. Damn, she really is super-thirsty for Oscar shine, isn't she
tuggernuts 21st-Feb-2013 06:50 pm (UTC)
the worst
whiskybars 21st-Feb-2013 06:50 pm (UTC)

emerald_soul 21st-Feb-2013 07:04 pm (UTC)
Yup. With Taylor. She kept clearing her throat.
formal_affair 21st-Feb-2013 06:52 pm (UTC)
That was hilarious.
liddlebins 21st-Feb-2013 07:51 pm (UTC)
i didn't know she had presented at the oscars before. i don't get why she would even be invited, tbh.
rebeljean 21st-Feb-2013 06:49 pm (UTC)
Is Kristen going to cough again?
formal_affair 21st-Feb-2013 06:49 pm (UTC)
Here for Kerry.
telurica 21st-Feb-2013 06:54 pm (UTC)
Only one that matters lbr.
nicolesnitchie 21st-Feb-2013 07:05 pm (UTC)

moonlight_vlora 21st-Feb-2013 08:25 pm (UTC)
I can't wait to see what she's going to wear
whiskybars 21st-Feb-2013 06:50 pm (UTC)
but i thought the hollywood game isn't real enough for kristen :(
littlehayzay 21st-Feb-2013 06:51 pm (UTC)
I wonder if there will be a repeat of 'I do my own stunts!' with Jennifer Garner tripping on stage.
whiskybars 21st-Feb-2013 06:52 pm (UTC)
that was so qt
loganx2 21st-Feb-2013 06:52 pm (UTC)
I loved that and I loved Reese kinda reaching out for her but of course being so far away to do nothing.
littlehayzay 21st-Feb-2013 06:57 pm (UTC)
I feel like people just think she's this Stepford wife and she's actually really really quick and witty and also very dorky/klutzy, making me love her even more. That and her correcting Conan on snuck/sneaked.
loganx2 21st-Feb-2013 06:53 pm (UTC)
If they have Jennifer intro Agro instead of Matt Damon I will be pissed. Matt is his first true love, back off.
blowingleaves 21st-Feb-2013 06:54 pm (UTC)
I guess Emma Stone was too busy...
bossm 21st-Feb-2013 06:56 pm (UTC)
Kristen is so desperate for positive feedback. She's just doing it to be able to walk on the red carpet.
bellarouze 21st-Feb-2013 06:57 pm (UTC)
lol who wouldn't agree to going to the oscars though?
bossm 21st-Feb-2013 06:59 pm (UTC)
Wouldn't agree? It's not like she got an invitation because they want her desperately to be there.
holyfrijoles_2 21st-Feb-2013 06:58 pm (UTC)
I can't wait to see what Kerry wears.
hewontgo 21st-Feb-2013 07:10 pm (UTC)
i am praying hard that she does wear one of her awful wigs
metrictons 21st-Feb-2013 06:58 pm (UTC)
save like 9 ppl, that entire presenters list is embarrassing tbh
formal_affair 21st-Feb-2013 07:01 pm (UTC)
ia but I love when they are introduced with whatever embarrassing film they have coming out that year lol
metrictons 21st-Feb-2013 07:06 pm (UTC)
me2 or when the host is a dick about them like when ricky introduced aniston as 'rachel from friends' at the globes lol
frowninghour 21st-Feb-2013 06:59 pm (UTC)
How is she not embarrassed for herself, after campaigning SO hard only to end up with zero recognition from these people, to then beg for a presenting gig? Jesus, what is her career now?
kwikimart 21st-Feb-2013 07:05 pm (UTC)
Her campaigning and then her straight faced lie that she wasn't trying for an award was hilarious

The girl has a lot of money to keep pushing herself
frowninghour 21st-Feb-2013 07:13 pm (UTC)
Like what are people even supposed to ask her on the red carpet? "So how does it feel to NOT be nominated tonight??"
thesegoto11 21st-Feb-2013 09:31 pm (UTC)
lmao mfte
pixiegerms 21st-Feb-2013 07:00 pm (UTC)
one of these things is not like the other
pineandapple 21st-Feb-2013 07:03 pm (UTC)
The closest Kristen Stewart will ever be to an Oscar.
kwikimart 21st-Feb-2013 07:04 pm (UTC)
So JenLaw and KStew will finally be pictured together

Anyway w/e Im just here for Dame Shirley Bassey, Kerry Washington, Octavia Spencer, Jessica Chastain, Salma Hayek, Melissa McCarthey and Nicole Kidman

Does anyone know how people get invited to be Oscar presenters?
Does it involve the same/similar level of hustling/publicist manipulation that campaigning for an award does?

Why isn't Emma Stone presenting?! What is going on with that girl, she's like flopping :/
masterofmystery 21st-Feb-2013 07:06 pm (UTC)
publicists, campaigning, and your movie being up for awards that year are usually indicators of being invited to present.

and emma's filming spider-man in nyc right now, isn't she? probably had to turn it down
metrictons 21st-Feb-2013 07:08 pm (UTC)
If you aren't Clooney, Pitt, Jolie or a nominee, it's all the publicists doing lbr.

kwikimart 21st-Feb-2013 07:14 pm (UTC)
thought so
chaincombo 21st-Feb-2013 08:19 pm (UTC)
Queen Meryl?
formal_affair 21st-Feb-2013 07:10 pm (UTC)
Emma presented last year. And she helped announce the nominees this year. She's shown her face enough to these insiders, I would guess.
whiskybars 21st-Feb-2013 07:10 pm (UTC)
it's publicists but idt it's the same amount of thirst and desperation that goes into a nomination campaign. it's usually people whose movies are nominated or who have a movie coming out soon alongside ~the legends~
gigbug 21st-Feb-2013 09:45 pm (UTC)
This is the one awards show where publicist hustling isn't really gets someone a presenting spot. The academy can get whoever they want and they know it.
tryxkittie 21st-Feb-2013 07:07 pm (UTC)
get it Kerry
hewontgo 21st-Feb-2013 07:12 pm (UTC)
she deserves her success
