Best actress is a toss-up and a half. On one hand you have Sandra Bullock. She has won the Golden Globe AND the Screen Actors Guild Award. That means the momentum is with her. Sort of. A lot of voters have been arguing that her best work was NOT in The Blind Side, but rather in The Proposal. That could stop her Oscar dreams.

There is also surge as of late to Meryl Streep. I mean, hell, Streep has been nominated more than 15 times so she must be doing something right. There is a somewhat legitimate argument that Streep should have won last year. And, if that is to be believed, there is a decent chance the actors bloc may vote to "correct" their error. But I am not sold completely on that outlook. Streep did put on a great performance in Julie and Julia and Julia Child.

So, while I am going with Bullock I will keep an eye out for Precious' Gabourey Sidibe. If enough people split votes between Streep and Bullock, Sidibe is ready to get an Oscar. This is a tough one. We are moments away from seeing!

Hmm... The personal stories this go round are a  little creepy. They are trying to be funny, but it comes off as tacky, not sweet.

Holy hell, it's Oprah talking for Gabourey!!!!! Oh, Oprah is making my little Precious cry! Lots of applause. Good for her. She really is honored just to be nominated.

Winner: Sandra Bullock

I am now 22 of 22.
