Sunday night, Twitter buzzed with joyful "suck it, Cameron!" Tweets. At long last, Papa Doc won an Oscar. Steve Martin was funny; Alec Baldwin less so. The acting categories went chalk. The screenplay categories, with original not going to "Inglorious Basterds" and adapted not going to "Up In The Air," yielded the only noteworthy upsets.

Here are some Tweet highlights from the hip-hop beat:

  • diplo   I hope the girl from precious bust up Sandra bullock..
  • questlove so does this mean that we will ACTUALLY see "the hurt locker" and come to grips that we are in a war people?
  • RealTalibKweli Thought that Avatar was gonna get it but Hurt Locker deserved it. Great movie.
  • QtipTheAbstract so happy for hurt locker! and the powerful woman director!
  • amandadiva YASSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO LADIES! GO LADIES!!!!!!!!! (btw rip dilla) DOPE!! (sidenote: she's James Cameron's ex-wife)

Crazy, isn't it? The lifestyles the rich & famous live. At the same time I've thought many time how challenging it must be to not have any privacy and always have people and photographers everywhere... all the time. Guess it's one of things where you can't have your cake and eat it too. I think I would rather have riches and skip the fame part,

Great site you have here and great insight. No wonder so many people flock on it with comments. Keep it going. Cheers!
