Academy Awards’ organizers for replacing the classic Oscars red carpet.At Sunday night’s ceremony, celebrities walked a “champagne” colored carpet at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood after exes decided to shake things up for the first time in more than 60 years. However, armchair pundits were less than impressed with the drastic change, taking to Twitter to fume over the carpeting.
“Finally getting around to turning on the Oscars for the red carpet coverage… WTF is that champagne carpet?!?! No!!!! It looks horrible!!!” one raged.Another claimed the carpet made the event look drab, declaring: “Okay the “champagne” carpet at the Oscars is terrible. They look like they’re attending a corporate banquet at the airport Hilton.”A third vexed viewer claimed the color was closer to a boring beige than chic “champagne.”Elsewhere, the light-colored carpet irritated a legion of other viewers, who said the shade showed dirt marks.“A CHAMPAGNE carpet???” one exasperatedly asked.
“I hope they have a team of people with vacuum cleaners following everyone down that MF [motherf–cker] otherwise it’s gonna look rode hard and put up wet.”“This new champagne carpet with the lint and dirt on it is not the look!” an additional cynic sniped, while another chimed in: “The champagne carpet looks dirty.”Others claimed that women wearing light-colored dresses — like nominees Jamie Lee Curtis, Ana de Armas and more — blended into the carpet, whereas the older red carpet would have made their frocks pop. An additional viewer begged for the Oscars not to bring back the fabric in the future, saying: “I hope the champagne carpet is gone for next year.

2023 Academy Awards.Kimmel approached Yousafzai, 25, during the telecast to ask her very pressing question from a fan named Joanne.“She asked, your work on human rights and education for women and children is an inspiration–as the youngest nobel prize winner in history, do you think Harry Styles spit on Chris Pine?” Kimmel asked her.The question was referring to the rumors of a fight between the two actors on the set of “Don’t Worry Darling.”In response, Yousafzai, who seemed uneasy, said, “I only talk about peace.”Things got even more uncomfortable for Yousafzai when presenters brought out the real-life “Cocaine Bear,” someone in a bear suit from Elizabeth Banks’ film, and as it paraded down the aisles, it strangely pestered the activist. Kimmel had to tell the bear leave to Yousafzai alone.

Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for their roles in “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” and “Everything Everywhere All At Once,” respectively.When it was announced that Curtis won, Bassett seemed less than thrilled — and, as seen in ABC’s telecast, seemingly didn’t even stand up to clap.Some Twitter users were disappointed to see the “Black Panther” star sit through the applause for Curtis while others were just disappointed Basset didn’t win.“Regardless of who won that Oscar… Angela Bassett could have clapped for the winner. To just sit there and not clap because you didn’t win …” someone said.Advertisement“Dayumm #AngelaBassett it’s ok.

Elvis” accent at the Oscars on Sunday — much to the chagrin of fans tired of hearing his take on the southern drawl.Live from the champagne carpet, Butler told ABC that being at the Oscars as a nominee “feels like an impossible dream” and he has to “pinch himself.”“Every time I get up in front of people as myself I’m nervous,” he added with his Elvis flare.Fans, however, would have prefer Butler just be himself vocally, with many poking fun on Twitter.“Austin Butler still has a hint of that accent and I’m gonna shove him into a locker,” wrote one Twitter user.“Sorry not sorry, but it’s so cringe to listen to Austin Butler speak with the Elvis accent,” chimed in another.One even joked: “take a shot every time austin butler uses the elvis accent tonight.”At least one fan was impressed he was still putting on the accent, writing: “austin butler deserves an oscar simply for not losing that damn accent.”E! red carpet host Laverne Cox asked Butler what his favorite part of “embodying” Elvis was since he has previously said the character “became a part of fiber of [his] being.”The actor responded that he feels like a different man after the process and it’s hard to pick just one thing “because it’s such a part of my life.”The 31-year-old California native was nominated for Best Actor for playing the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll in Baz Luhrmann’s “Elvis.”Butler’s voice has a noticeably deeper pitch since he performed in the drama, which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2022.“The Carrie Diaries” alum said he spent over two years prepping for the performance, not even seeing his family for a long time as he immersed himself in the role.He explained in June 2022 how he couldn’t get rid of Elvis’ famous Southern baritone
