Oscars 2015 – Recap, Reflections on Best & Worst Moments
Quick confession: I'm not a huge fan of Oscars red carpet, or red carpet in general. So I only tuned in a half hour before the show. It's funny but the second I turned on the TV, Michael Keaton was standing next to the chirpy blond presenter. He seems effortlessly at ease, LOVE that guy and …
