Oscars Announce More Presenters, Plus Star Studded Women in Film Event
Emma Stone, Meryl Streep and Brie Larson got together for an Oscars pre-party celebrating Women in Film.
No, I don’t mean they got together to literally celebrate themselves… Women in Film is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting equal opportunities for women in media.
“I want to ask you all in this room today to connect with others. Let’s share our stories, talk about where we came from, let’s get excited about where we are right now because there is only room to grow… So let’s talk… let’s talk about what’s really going on, what worries us, what scares us, what we’re excited about, what it feels like to be a mother, what it feels like to be a daughter, what it feels like to be a son or a father in this period of time, and let’s incubate all of this and make something amazing because we will be here later, and we’ll talk about how this was the moment when we went, ‘I got it, I know how to make the world a better place’.”
And the Oscar goes to…
The final round of presenters has been announced adding Matt Damon, Jennifer Aniston, Meryl Streep and more to the list of previously announced A-listers including Leonardo DiCaprio and Brie Larson.
We will also see Jason Bateman, Ryan Gosling, Salma Hayek, Taraji P. Henson, Warren Beatty, Michael J. Fox, Seth Rogan, Vince Vaughn, Samuel L. Jackson, Dwayne Johnson, Halie Steinfeld, Emma Stone and more gracing the stage.
The 89th Academy Awards are hosted by Jimmy Kimmel and will air Sunday, February 26th.
New Celebrity Couples Celebrating Valentine's Day 2017
Love is in the air with these new celebrity couples!
Selena Gomez and The Weeknd (real name: Abel Tesfaye, FYI).
Are they or aren’t they? After early reports surfaced indicating the two might be on the outs following Tesfaye’s cryptic tweet (below) and a sudden evaporation from the public eye.
The two are still on and have been together since early January. They were most recently spotted getting close at Rihanna’s GRAMMYs after party at 1Oak where Justin Bieber made an appearance… a very brief one.
Britney Spears and Sam Asghari.
Another couple “outed” by the GRAMMYs… Okay, so we knew Britney was dating this dancer/model for a couple months now. Spears and Asghari met on set while shooting the “Slumber Party” video back in November of 2016.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
Can we even consider these two a “new couple”? The whispers started long before the two officially confirmed their relationship in November of 2016. The two have done their absolute best to keep out of the public eye but it’s a little bit hard considering he’s, y’know, ROYALTY and all.
Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner.
Our favorite DNCE/Game of Thrones mash-up yet! Another couple who started heating things up last November. It’s unclear whether or not they met at a Kings of Leon concert but we do know their mutual friends are responsible for this hook up. They’ve been dating for a few months and appear to still be on. If we’ve learned anything from GoT recently, Joe doesn’t wanna mess with Sansa Stark.
Mariah Carey and Brian Tanaka.
In a weird twist of events (all captured on her TV show, naturally) Mariah Carey called it quits with billionaire fiance James Packer and jumped right into the toned arms of her long time dancer, Brian Tanaka.
It was only two months following the highly publicized split that the two made their love official. They have been together since October 2016 and I’m still not convinced this isn’t a ratings ploy.
Leonardo DiCaprio and Nina Agdal (*at the time this blog was posted, Leo was still on this particular supermodel/subject to change at any moment).
Last but certainly not least is our favorite playboy (since Clooney was removed from the running, duh) and love of supermodels, Leo. Surprisingly, he appears to be in a relationship with Nina Agdal. More surprisingly, DiCaprio and Agdal are the least “new couple” on this list. The two were spotted making out back in July of 2016 (following his brief fling with Rihanna) and have become serious over the past two months, sources say.
Honourable Mentions:
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom
Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson
Lady Gaga and Christian Carino
