Who is Gwyneth Paltrow?

Lately, everyone has been asking who is Gwyneth Paltrow?  Stars often become so easily recognizable for the one thing they do or a specific style, but not Gwyneth.

Generally speaking she's the daughter of a producer and an actress. She has also long been noticed as an award winning actress, although, she has become much more than that.  The new and improved Gwyneth is known for cooking, as well as singing.

What's next?  Maybe a more birthdays campaign?  Gotta love the idea.  Someone should suggest it.

83rd Annual Academy Awards

This year the Academy Awards Show was hosted by Anne Hathaway and James Franco.  Ms. Hathaway was funny as usual and Mr. Franco was a nice addition as well.  This award show didn't really have any surprises. It wasn't even shocking when Gwyneth Paltrow sang; great singer.

The Oscar for Best Actress went to Natalie Portman in Black Swan. Colin Firth won an Oscar for his role in The King's Speech, which was also the movie that won for Best Picture. Some fashion wins from the red carpet included statement clothing worn by Nicole Kidman, Anne Hathaway, Halle Berry, Mila Kunis, Cate Blanchett, and newcomer Hailee Steinfeld.

The highlights of the evening for me consisted of once again, Ms. Paltrow, Celine Dion of course and the children from P.S. 22. They were awesome!  That's one of the reasons the arts must be kept alive in the schools.  Many waited all night to hear from them and they were worth the wait.  It was a great way to end a long night.

While there were many things to enjoy, more creativity go into these shows.  Incorporate things that make tuning in feel absolutely necessary.

The 53rd Annual Grammy Awards

The show was awesome! I enjoyed it all from the typically wonderful variety of music to the strange banter. I also liked the target commercials in between. The performances I was really into were Justin Bieber's featuring the fabulous Jaden Smith & then Usher, and also Cee Lo Green & Gwyneth Paltrow.

Speaking of the latter, never before has a skit been a perfect target for dressing dos & don'ts. Of course, Celo was the obvious don't, well NEVER and Ms. Paltrow is the fashion do. It's like she fell out of fashion week. She looked great from the bright pink feather earrings and jumpsuit, to the fabulous shoes.

This show was excellent, but the awards were a little on the nose. There were no real surprises or shake ups, except for New Artist, Esperanza Spalding. I found Rhinna, Eminem & Dr Dre's performance interesting and appropriately dramatic flat lining at the end.

A segment showcased all those we've lost and others be cultivated. It was nice to see Mick Jagger. Also, Nicki Minaj and Lady Gaga are like performance art. Great show!
