The Oscars red carpet isn’t a competition between Best Actor and Best
Actress; it’s a competition between journalists with the sharpest
elbows and the loudest voice.
The carpet is about 150 metres long.
It starts with those amazing shots of the stars you will eventually see
in the magazines (and in the handy news.com.au gallery below).
That’s
where the glamour begins and ends. The celebrities then have to run the
gauntlet until they reach the entrance to the Dolby Theatre.
There are three lanes — one lane for ordinary folk who are not nominated
but managed to nab a free ticket, an express lane for mega celebrities
who don’t need to spend the time talking to us common folk, and then
there is the lane for the stars who want to chat to journalists.
Of course, plenty of stars have a chat as they make their way into
the ceremony. I caught up with Sly Stallone, Rooney Mara, George Miller
and the Australian nominees from Mad Max. I also caught up with the hilarious Sacha Baron Cohen and his Australian wife, Isla Fisher.
There
are an infinitesimal amount of people who are lucky enough to attend
the Oscars and I still can’t believe that I was on the red carpet with
the biggest stars in Hollywood.
