Academy Awards Gossip

Actually a decent actor but better known for being a loose cannon, Gary Busey surfaces every now and again. Bless him for it.

Last night on the red carpet, prior to the start of the 80th annual Academy Awards, the 63-year-old, somewhat insane actor inexplicably hijacked American Idol host Ryan Seacrest's interview with Jennifer Garner and Laura Linney.

He then embraced Garner and planted one on her neck.

You gotta love Gary Busey. Here's the clip. Be forewarned that it's a sure bet to make you squirm with awkwardness...

We know. It's extremely difficult to compete with George Clooney in this category, even if your TV character gave birth to the term McDreamy.

But Patrick Dempsey pulls it off.

Not just because he's a handsome fellow, either. Patrick Dempsey is one of the most laid-back celebrities out there, unmoved by his own fame.

He and his wife, Jillian Dempsey (pictured), have been married since 1999 and have three children. That's an eternity in Hollywood, or anywhere these days!

For these reason, the Grey's Anatomy / Enchanted star and family man was the dreamiest star on the red carpet last night, in our opinion ...

Hey, at least the fella doing the ogling of Heidi Klum in this picture is married to Heidi Klum. Unlike the rest of you dudes out there!

Still, way to be discreet, Seal!

Heidi Klum and her husband - who have three small children - arrived at the Oscars last night with about a hundred other A-list celebrities, yet seemed to be totally chill and unmoved by the whole spectacle of the red carpet.

The reason? They can't take their eyes off each other! Who the hell cares about the Academy Awards when you're married to Heidi Klum? You go, Seal.

Oooooga! Even Heidi Klum's husband, Seal, is stunned by her beauty. 

Somebody get the Fashion Police over here, STAT!

We love Katherine Heigl (who recently won an Emmy Award for her role as Izzie Stevens on Grey's Anatomy) but we're not too sure about this red dress.

Heigl, who presented at last night's Academy Awards, appeared to be missing something. A second strap? Some fabric for that shoulder hole? Come on, girl!

Hot and desirable as she is, Katherine Heigl can't save this red dress.

Evidently, they'll let anyone from Hollywood into the Academy Awards.

Coming off the movie The Eye, which was as critically lauded as the Gene Simmons sex tape, Jessica Alba brought her baby bump to last night's Oscars.

Oh, she also showed up with boyfriend Cash Warren. We can't believe he found time to attend.

George Clooney may not have taken home the Academy Award for Best Actor last night, but the handsome, charitable star was obviously a winner nonetheless.

Here's a look at him with pretty girlfriend Sarah Larson:
