Sharon Stone is my hero. If she can get a man 26 years younger than her, then so can I!

Stone still looks awesome!

I read somewhere that Patel is dating his Slumdog co-star Frieda Pinto.

Patel has excellent taste!

Sharon Stone is on the lookout for a new toyboy - the Hollywood actress made a play for Slumdog Millionaire star Dev Patel at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Awards on Sunday.Stone, 50, reportedly dated 24-year-old Chase Dreyfous last year before their relationship cooled.

And Stone proved she is keen on another young man - after the Basic Instinct star flirted with newcomer Patel, 18, on the red carpet at the prestigious film event.

He says, "Sharon's great, she's been flirting with me all night. She was chasing me around earlier, slapping me. Sharon Stone! Can you believe it?"

LOL. She is officially out of control.

When you root for a sure thing, you can't get the possibility out of your head that it's going to lose anyway. How many people refused to accept Scorsese and "The Departed" were going to win until it finally happened? But only when you're looking forward to a sure thing winning (I call these sorts 'philistines') does the race seem boring.

Granted, one man's sure thing is another man's nail-biter -- in the way a 1-run lead in the 9th can seem overwhelming to the trailing team, but paper-thin to the defenders. I sat through the '96 awards expecting all night that my beloved English Patient would be nipped by Shine or something -- while non-fan friends groaned and yawned at every award.

But, really, I think after GG/SAG/DGA/PGA/WGA/BAFTA, it's hard to see Slumdog as anything but the second coming of Return of the King, and we all remember how exciting THAT was.

The sad part is, I really don't dislike Slumdog -- or, at least, I don't like any other nominee so much more that I'd be thrilled by an upset. I'm just getting irked by the juggernaut-ness of it.

Goldie the absolute worst. I think if I saw her coming I'd run in the opposite direction. She looks, sounds and acts positively scary.

Yes I saw her being interviewed on the red carpet. What a grotesque sight. Face lifts and cosmetic surgery was created for people like her. She despartely needs to get under the knife...or forever stay away from public outings.

How does Goldie Hawn keep getting a presenting gig at the BAFTAS?

[Big Magilla]

Mick Jagger should host next year's show.

And Goldie Hawn has been drinking from Elizabeth Taylor's sippy-cup.

I agree. Jagger was the best presenter, Goldie the absolute worst. I think if I saw her coming I'd run in the opposite direction. She looks, sounds and acts positively scary.

Best speech: Danny Boyle.

It was shown on TV in Australia & the UK in December so it should he easy to find.

Sharon Stone is a complete trainwreck. She looks like her own Madame Toussad's wax statue.

Really? I thought she looked nice for a change on the red carpet. However, I never got round to watching the awards when she presented. Maybe too much vodka between the carpet and the podium!!

[flipp525]

That host is just awful. I wish they'd get Stephen Fry back.

Only the occasional shots of Robert Downey, Jr., who I seem to have developed the hugest crush on as of late, saved this from being an utterly boring evening. Like Tee, I fear that this will be a preview of the Oscars with Slumdog winning everything in sight. I'm already dreading it.

I was very excited.

When Slumdog won sound, I settled in for a dull evening. As time went on, I developed the fear they were going to foretell the Oscars in ever detail. Happily, In Bruges winning screenplay broke the spell, and maybe Mickey Rourke as well.

For anyone watching who'd seen I've Loved You So Long -- is that cute little dickens from the movie the director's daughter?
