Crazy Oscar Fashions....maybe not

Sorry to bring my movie industry fetish into this class but it was bound to happen at one point or another.

On Twitter today, The Hollywood Reporter posted an article regarding the train wrecks that generally happen at the Oscars each year. The more infamous ones include Demi Moore wearing biker shorts to the ceremony as well as Juliette Lewis's cornrows. THR this year though is excepting there to be no outrageous choices out on the red carpet. Their reasoning being branding. They believe that the actors and actresses will use the ceremony to their advantage in order to gain brand affinity with their viewers. Who can take seriously the actress that wears a swan dress or for that matter, later go out and watch her movie? An interesting insight on the side of THR, what do you all think? Will craziness happen as per usual or will the ceremonies be calmer on the carpet this year?
