Posted: 3/2/14 at 11:00pmDid Bette Midler get her dress from the postulant Maria von Trapp got her dress from?

Posted: 3/2/14 at 11:02pmI don't know if the producers told the audience in advance not to clap during the In Memoriam segment or if they simply cut out the live audio from the theatre, but either way, classy move. It's always a bit tacky when they clap for the recognizable stars and then don't for the others who passed.

Posted: 3/2/14 at 11:03pmI see Sarah Jones as added right before they cut to commercial. Don't agree with that but whatever.

Bette is a wonder from the heavens.

I was SO happy they cut the audio of the audience. It's always so awkward when some people get applause and others don't.
And Bette had me in tears, like I knew she would. And she seemed kind of surprised at the love she got from the audience.

Posted: 3/2/14 at 11:04pmEris. My mouth dropped when I saw that. Either include her or do not. What they did felt worse than if they had just not included her...

Posted: 3/2/14 at 11:04pmWhat did Bette feel like?
#162The Oscars & Red Carpet thread
Posted: 3/2/14 at 11:06pmLike she had wind beneath her wings.
#163The Oscars & Red Carpet thread
Posted: 3/2/14 at 11:08pm....and she received a well deserved standing ovation! So my guess is she felt FABULOUS!!! Ha!

Posted: 3/2/14 at 11:09pmI missed the beginning. What was the instrumental music playing during the In Memorium segment? Was it Somewhere In Time?

Liza, as I said in the other thread she should be included in the Emmys. She has mostly TV credits. Doing it like an afterthought is a slap to her and those who were included.

You guys must have seen a different Bette song than I did.
The In Memorium segment is such a weird thing to get worked up over. When that lady nobody heard of got that graphic shout-out in the end I thought that would have made people happy.
Clearly the biggest injustice tonight was poor Idina's introduction.

Posted: 3/2/14 at 11:12pmOMG. John Travolta just cost her immeasurable publicity. Or provided it to her.
