Dramatic Reading Of Kanye West Tweets Is Theatrical Magic

Kanye West is an avid Tweeter and he has a wealth of famous tweets.

Humility isn't necessarily one of his stronger suits, which makes the tweets all the more fun.

What's more fun is when, at the Vanity Fair party following the Oscars, a reporter there asked famous actors and other celebrities to do dramatic readings of Kanye West tweets.

The result is some wonderful faux dramatic moments, that who knows? Maybe they will result in a future major motion picture. One that might be an Oscar winner.

You never know! Watch.

Lady Gaga Keeps Soaring. An Oscar Wow

Lady Gaga performing "Til It Happens To You" at the Oscars
Sunday night. 
As most of you who read this blog know, I've been a Lady Gaga fan from the start.

She's certainly gone through a lot of personas. And I'm sure many people thought she was a strange performance artist flash in the pan when she first hit it big several years ago.  

But she's got the goods, as she's proven through such moments like her collaboration with Tony Bennett, here National Anthem performance at the Super Bowl, and last night, her song  "Til It Happens To You" At the Oscars.

The Oscar-nominated song is from The Hunting Ground, a movie which is an expose of the rape culture on college campuses.

Joined by several survivors of sexual assault, Lady Gaga's performance last night moved people to tears.

Like I said, Lady Gaga has got the goods and the staying power. She is going to have a long, interesting, wonderful career. Which I'm very happy about.

Here's the Oscar performance:
