Octavia Spencer gave one of the most emotional speeches of the night, with her voice breaking into tears during her acceptance speech for Best Supporting Actress for her role in 'The Help.' I don't know about you, but I couldn't help but get choked up with her. Then again, I cried during the preview for 'Moneyball.' Anyway, this is definitely Octavia's moment.
Meryl Streep also took the stage to accept the award for Best Actress for her role as Margaret Thatcher in 'The Iron Lady.' And as always, Meryl took the show from stuffy to sweet. "Oh come on!" she said, taking the stage.
'The Artist' took home the biggest award of the night—Best Picture. And when he won Best Supporting Actor, 82 year-old Plummer took the stage and said to his Oscar: “You’re only two years older than me darling, where have you been all my life?"

The Artist was the big winner, director Michel Hazanavicius and the films producer accepted the award along with the rest of the cast who seemed genuinely thrilled that their black-and-white silent film won the top award of the night.
The Oscars have only existed couple years longer than Christopher Plummer has been alive, and until now those golden statues have evaded the talented actor his whole life.
Plummer wins for best supporting actor for the movie “Beginners” where he plays a very old man dying of cancer who has just come out of the closet just months before his death.
In a video montage, Crystal recreates a bunch of scenes movies that came out in the past year including, 'Bridesmaids,' 'The Help,' and 'Hugo.' It also included a kiss from George Clooney, a Jonah Hill cameo, and a meeting with Justin Bieber. Bieber pretends to know who Hemingway is. Probably thinks it's one of his backup dancers.
The only Oscar bet I made was the fact that Billy Crystal would say 'you look mahvalous!' within the first thirty seconds of his hosting. I lost. But he did remind us that it was his ninth time hosting the Oscars. And of course, a song and dance kicked off immediately.
"We're here at the beautiful Chapter 11 theater," Crystal said, referring to recent news of Kodak taking their name off of the theater to save $4 million a year. Woah, there, Billy. Getting kinda edgy! If the Academy wanted smarm, they would've gone with Ricky Gervais.

There are plenty of actors and actresses who are deserving of an Oscar, don’t get us wrong. But there are some stars who are not only talented, but constantly in the spotlight as well. You would just assume they have an Oscar under their belt, but surprisingly, they do not. Here are ten celebs who we can't believe haven’t won an Oscar.
Leonardo DiCaprio: Nominated for Best Actor in both Blood Diamond and The Aviator, Leo surprisingly hasn’t taken home an Oscar. This year, he wasn’t even nominated for his portrayal of J.Edgar Hoover in J.Edgar. Then again, 2011 had some stiff competition.
