Hey everybody! Watch my interview with Radio of Horror host Dr. Chris as we talk about everything from Lifetime movies to Black Panter. The pendulum of topics swung wiiiiiiiiide.
Thank you, Radio of Horror and Dr. Chris for having me on the show! I look forward to speaking with you again in June!
It’s that time again, when the crème de la crème of Hollywood and the world gather together on a Sunday the end of February-to the first two weeks of March, get all dressed up in their best designer duds, have their speeches prepared and vie for the golden boy that they will take home and maybe place on the back of their toilet. As I said in my best of post, 2017 was one hell of a year for film and honestly, it’s about damn time. This year’s nominees in the “best” categories are actually pretty accurate and this was not an easy feat because there was definitely an overabundance of options that year’s past were not so fortunate to have. So without further ado, behold my list of the winners of the 90th annual Academy Awards.

Unfortunately I did not see a single short, foreign film or documentary but I do think ‘Faces Places’ will win for documentary and ‘A Fantastic Woman’ for foreign film.
Whomever the winners are, this is definitely a deserving lot of talented people that has made some incredible pieces of art for 2017. Good luck, nominees and may the odds be ever in your favor! We’ll see if my Oscar Nostradamus channeling comes thru this year.
Until next time, if you see me at the movies, I’ll be The Blonde in Front! 😉👱♀️🎬📽🎥🎞🤳
