Oscars and Twitter (for English speaking people).

In Hollywood, CA  the Academy, which sounds very Greek, Plato style, and cool , rents the Dolby theater for the annual Oscars awards ceremony.

Many people watch it on TV and over 3,000 privileged live in the theater. There are attendants which are nominated and awarded veterans and other just rookies and lost in translation, I guess almost all nervous and excited. At the end, in the best scenario, the wanted statuette is taken to be abandoned somewhere in a beautiful house to tell many stories on a party that lasts until sunrise.

The awards are subjective and decided by a free and democratic voting system, I guess.
Almost every year I agree with the nominees, but the prize is something else and the truth is that there is usually only one winner in each category. In addition there are technical awards that require much professional knowledge. So in 2014 there were the usual ceremony and awards, but ...

Who came up with some of those attending the Oscars participating in a photo with a cell phone? sorry, smart phone. It was a brilliant idea but the result is not as easy to get.

Those who were in those initial rows are characterized by knowing how to pose for a camera, they are camera lovers, they do not need much preparation, they see the camera lens , the target, and are ready to do it well, guys and dolls. Not all were super famous, many are loved by the public, were they chosen? Someone slipped into the photo, others tried to leave anyway general and Kevin Spacey had time for clowning. I guess it's the thrill of Hollywood .
The host, Ellen Degeneres,  was quick and fast cornering them with her skill. I think Mr Cooper struck twice and Eureka! Everyone was smiling and with the eyes open.
That is life !, the beginning of something, they will be imitated , no copy right.
