Live from the Red Carpet!

Finally home from a fun-filled day at the Oscars, and had to do a quick re-cap! JCPenney was the title sponsor of the major event, and they hosted a grand experience for us bloggers all day long. From Sephora touch-ups to swag bags, awesome seats and a viewing party at the El Capitan Theater (complete with dinner, popcorn, snacks, photo opps, make-up touch-ups and more), today was certainly unforgettable!

Highlights included seeing Brad and Angelina storm the red carpet in a frenzy, only to stop, turn around and go back through the press line for photos and interviews; shooting a quickie video for JCPenney and eyeing Mario Lopez and cheering him on as he nabbed interviews with Brangelina as if his life depended on it. So funny. (And yes, he is so cute.)

Sitting amongst the fans was definitely a different experience (not exactly in a good way--a sectioned off area would be nice in the future--just in case anyone's asking!), and it was strange to not be working the press line and hustling the red carpet for once, while I spotted many of my reporter colleagues doing exactly that just across the way. All in all, though, the entire day was a blast and I can't thank JCPenney enough for having me today!
