As the 2022 Oscar Awards get underway, the post-pandemic red carpet is once again swimming in the usual glitz and glamour, with media given the opportunity to photograph some of the most amazing designer dresses in the world.
That, as well as like 150 men wearing what appears to be the exact same suit.
As usual Hollywood has once again overestimated their cultural relevance in a world plagued by war and disease, with Amy Schumer and Sean Penn demanding that the Academy use this moment to allow Ukrainian President Zelensky the opportunity to ‘address the world’.
However, despite the fact that this event will probably end up getting less eyeballs than a UFC fighter’s TikTok video – there was one stand-out moment that appears to have momentarily stopped the world from spinning.
For at least 45 minutes, so far.
Dune actress Zendaya and her stylist Law Roach have come in as leading favourites for the best dressed at the 2022 Oscars. The 25-year-old superstar arrived on the red carpet, wearing a white silk crop top with a glittering long silver skirt by Valentino with matching diamond bracelets Zendaya posed solo. It’s unclear if her boyfriend Tom Holland is at the Oscars ceremony with her tonight.
That’s basically the summary of a lengthy conversation currently taking place in the kitchen of a suburban South Betoota brokering firm – as the office millennials unpack their hero’s new outfit with the type of deep, searing analysis usually reserved for loan assessment.
As is acknowledged by anyone who has anything to do with people between the ages of 18 and 30, the former child star Zendaya is currently the Hollywood ‘It’ girl – and has been for several years now.
Her ability to turn Spiderman into merely a ‘plus one’ – and effortless shapeshift between sci-fi epics and record-breaking HBO teen dramas has only cemented her status as the most promising actor of her generation.
On top of this, she is also the best dressed person to have ever made an appearance at the Oscar awards in their 94-year history.
According to the office millennials, who are now verging on a full hour discussing the midriff masterstroke.
