I feel so independent!

Loved the Independent Spirit Awards this year.

Love her or hate her, Sarah Silverman hosted for the 2nd straight year and I thought she did a great job. She's a raunchy, pasty little girl.

Congrats to Ryan Gosling for winning Best Actor. He knows he isn't going to win tomorrow night at the Oscar's, even joking that he has a lot of money riding on Forrest Whitaker. Don't we all, Gosling. Don't we all. Oh, and Rachel McAdams was not there with him. Hmmm.....do I smell a break up? We'll see if they walk the red carpet together tomorrow evening.

A big congrats, as well, to Alan Arkin, screenwriter Michael Arndt and husband and wife team Johnathan Dayton and Valerie Faris for winning Best Supporting Actor, Best First Screenplay, and Best Director for Little Miss Sunshine. The film also took home the Best Picture award. Suck on that!

Kudos to Minnie Driver for singing one of the parody songs for one of the best picture nominees. Those are always fun, and I wish they would do the same at the Oscar's. That show needs a good parody after the opening monologue. Maybe it would help me to not fall asleep waiting for the good awards to be announced.

Oh, and this year's "How the f*** was that person invited to the ceremony but I wasn't" award goes to Taylor Dayne. She was popular 20 years ago! They may as well have invited Stacey Q to sing one of the parodies.

good GOD I hope ryan gosling finally realizes he can do so much better than that attention whore, but I read somewhere else that she wasn't there (and won't be with him tomorrow at the oscars) because she's working. Can't take a break to attend the biggest event in film with your supposed fiance??? Move on, please, SOON

Even more juicy! I'm dying to know why they broke up before.
