Welcome to the 82nd Annual Academy Awards. The night we all have been waiting for.
The red carpet began like always with all its glory and glamour.
As the celebrities drove in, the background simmered with the glitz with scores of fans screaming out their names, the red carpet flew into the majestic cinematic magical wonder that it is.
The stage was set as Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin introduced the lighter moments and yes, the nominees too. Most of their introduction was revolving around the ravishingly gorgeous Meryl Streep, who was attending her 16th Oscar nomination.
Then began the magic of the amazing golden statuette, the night of the 82nd Oscar.
