Yay, I just heard a mumble of 'ben-something' before it cut off. Yay!!

She's amazingly quick!

He might have been honoured last year, as he died at the beginning of February. So sad to see Robin Williams included this year

Yes, I noticed that too, how could they have forgotten him?!

Aaaw, so cute. Yes, she IS quick!

Darn, another commercial before Ben is up...

Yeah, I just noticed my mistake. Already deleted my post.

Ah, Benedict was so perfect, not wooden like some of the presenters.

Poor Naomi Watts both stumbled while walking in and hit the mic with the envelope. Ben was gracious and lovely as always.

Another award miss for TIG, though.

It is very distracting with Ben in the background

I was just reminded how much I love his accent!!

**Posted by Vhanja** February 23, 2015 3:48 am

Wow, I don't know who that presenter was, but he spoke with moving conviction.

His heart was so in the right place. I am always so touched to hear people talk about Alan that way.

I was thinking the same thing! With all that US accent, he stood out like a... not a sore thumb, but a very gracious and beautiful thumb.

Ok, I'm not making sense anymore. I should go to bed.

Lol, of course they had to make fun of his name. Poor guy.

Wow, Kevin Hart crying was really moving.

**Posted by This Is The Phantom Lady** February 23, 2015 4:04 am

Still the name thing... but it actually made me giggle!

Wonderful acceptance speach for best song! And David Oyelowo...

**Posted by This Is The Phantom Lady** February 23, 2015 4:12 am

I was perfect!

**Posted by Vhanja** February 23, 2015 4:13 am

Oh, yes, David. Not Kevin Hart.

I didn't expect that from Lady Gaga. Wow!

I caught the Benedict Cumberbatch name joke just as I headed out the door to pick up my kids from school (he must get sick of the jokes, but that one was kinda cute). Just came back home in time to catch the end of Lady Gaga's song. Did I miss any BC moments?

IKR? It's like she's saying, yes, I did take singing lessons, thankyouverymuch! (And she has some amazing pipes in there, why does she hide behind costumes and effects?)
