Tonight, the 84th Academy Awards took place in a Hollywood, CA in a theatre that shall not be named (LOL). Kicking the night off right was a quick set of clips featuring host with the most, Billy Crystal. We watched as Billy appeared and cameoed in some of the year’s biggest films including The Help and The Descendants. One shining moment was when Billy shared the screen with non other than Justin Bieber who was there to help bring Billy the 18-24 demographic. Unfortunately with Twilight “snubbed” from every category this year, I doubt any of the Beliebers are watching this year’s Academy Awards.

Throughout the evening, the show was sprinkled with presenters in various forms. We had the formal presentations that are expected with the evening. And then, we had a few comedic performances from those of Emma Stone and Ben Stiller and of course, the entire cast of Bridesmaids. Highlight of that was definitely Rose Byrne and Melissa McCarthy turning their presentation into a drinking game. Overall, it’s all about the winners, so check out who took home an Oscar below.
