I'm not wearing 'em. I'm really offended that they didn't ask my permission to do this. It's so cheesy. ShoeGate 2008! It's weird, especially because Stuart Weitzman apparently sent out a press release about it, with this quote- Stuart makes it sound like he's BFF with Diablo. Like, "Oh, that crazy Diablo, always wearing the comfy shoes!"

It's so odd - why wouldn't they ask ahead of time if you wanted to wear the shoes? Why spend all that time & money only to have someone turn around and go, "ummm nope those shoes totally don't go with my dress".

Screw Stuart Weitzman anyway. Go for Christian Louboutins!!!

Maybe you should wear them, but say you're doing so under protest. So if diablo wins, how can she shout out to the Greecies? "Thanks so much for this award. I feel like Crown Princess Marie Chantal right now!"

Well despite the Shoe Hag tendencies of several mods here, I have to say good on ya, Diablo, for refusing to wear them...hell, I'd even show up in my Chuck Taylor All-Stars out of spite.

Oh thank goodness, Diablo that you are not wearing the $1M shoes. I saw a picture of them, and they were not impressive, and besides you will be a walking advertisement for Weitzmann shoes. That is pretty rude of him to send out the press release before asking your permission.I say go with Louboutins, definitely more your style, and I don't think you have to give them back at the end of the night.

Those shoes are Goddamned ugly. I'd wear them if I was getting paid a million, but damned if I'd step on a red carpet and let people judge my style based on a pair of orthapedics with Nanas brooch on them.
Its not too late to get a million dollar Victorias Secret bra though!

I know - it's shocking isn't it? The idea that the whole reason for designers loaning/giving dresses, jewelry, etc is for publicity? Next thing you know someone will be saying that the Oscars themselves are a big publicity stunt. Oh wait...they are!

Ok, predictions for tonight, a silly combination of who I think will win and who I would like to see win...
Best Picture: No Country for old men Best Director: Julian Schnabel (or Coens)
Best Actress: Marion Cotillard Best Actor: Daniel Day-Lewis
Best Supporting Actress: Saoirse Ronan Best Supporting Actor: Javier Bardem
(The actor line-up is very unlikely I admit as it would mean no American actors but who knows?)
Original Screenplay: Michael Clayton Adapted Acreenplay: No Country for old men
