2008 Oscars
And the Winner of the $1,000 Oscar Ballot Prize Is...
This year's Academy Awards didn't draw that many viewers, but they sure drummed up a lot of excitement here on the Sugar Network!

Have Your Own Oscar Shorts Screening, Courtesy of iTunes
The live-action short films and animated short films from this year's Oscars are still working their way through theaters, but if the tour isn't stopping near you or you just don't have time for a trip to the movies, there's another option. All of the Oscar shorts are available on iTunes for $1.99 each.
That's really not a bad deal, considering that you could buy all 10 films for $20 — about what it would cost to see both shorts programs in the theater.

With past people prizes generally being electronics, spa treatments, and fancy trips, this year the goodies also included some high-end pet beauty products, clothing, and things that sparkle.

We all love a Look for Less, but when the Oscar red carpet has finished, the knockoff manufacturers kick into high gear. Which celebrities' dresses made the cut?

Which Awards Show Has Been Your Favorite?
As the Oscars hubbub subsides, so concludes another frenzied season of major awards shows. There was the Emmys ceremony back in September, before the writers strike, and then the starkly pared-down Golden Globes during the strike. There were the Grammys and, of course, last Sunday's Oscars show.
Marion Cotillard's Oscar Dress, From Runway to Red Carpet
Just like with Ellen Pompeo and her SAG Awards gown, for Marion Cotillard and her Oscars gown, it was love at first sight.
