The Stars Descend Onto Hollywood

The Oscars were this past Sunday and our favorite movie of the year, The Wrestler, was nominated in the Best Actor and Best Supporting Actress categories. The film went 0 for 2. Although Marisa Tomei losing wasn't much of a surprise, Mickey Rourke not taking home the little gold man for his portrayal of Randy the Ram was surprising. Rourke was the heavy favorite, as the comeback story of his character really mirrored the comeback of his personal life. Of course, Hollywood doesn't always play fair.

No, perhaps Rourke was too much of a "rebel" for the Academy to take him seriously. After all, it's heavily rumored he'll be involved with Wrestlemania this year, and his past doesn't necessarily make him the most trustworthy fellow when given a live mic. Here's his acceptance speech from the Independent Spirit Awards, held one night before the Oscars [NSFW language (although Eric Roberts is in the clip, so you gotta balance your priorities.)]



Still, we don't think that one day before an award ceremony really sways the vote. If that were the case then the death of his beloved dog a few days ago would probably have swung a few votes his way, but things don't work that way in the movies...

...unlike some other deaths in some other elections we might know.

Still, the Oscars are a fun time! Win or lose! No one knows a good time better then the superstars of the WWE! They came out for a big Oscar party, the Haven Young Hollywood Oscar Party (co-sponsored by the WWE), to help support The Wrestler and have an all around great time! And it also doesn't hurt to hob knob with a few A-List stars. Take a look:


Kofi Kingston

Kelly Kelly

Try and hold back the excitement, boys.

Nice shirt choice, shit dick.

Nice dress choice, pretty lady.

They made wishes come true too!

Maryse and Make-a-Wish kid, Chow Chow.

Priceless suspect that this may actually be a middle aged man and not a sick kid.

Also on the red carpet were some non-wrestling celebrities as well!

Reality TV stars The Miz and Corrine Kaplan of Survivor.

Reality TV stars the Gastineau Girls

Who?

Ok, so maybe it's really like...E! Network celebrities...

Still, the party was bumpin' all night! Look at how crammed the inside was!



Kofi was scratching some non-existent vinyl!



And super star singer/actor/all around entertainer Aaron Carter snuck in and got cozy with the Divas:



Cha-ching! Look at his hand placement!

And hey, the party was so much fun that Priceless finally started to loosen up.

This...

...lead to this

And we can owe this horseplay to one thing only:

Hollywood Coke party!
