Grab your Ozcar! Ms. Info's 2010 Academy Award predictions

Ms. Information — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 02:00:00 EST

The 82nd Annual Academy Awards are coming up, and it's gonna be a really exciting year!

First of all, make sure you check the Daily Keepsake today through Sunday. Each day the Ozcar (our version of the famous award)for each body type will be offered.

Now that I'm all dressed up, I'm ready to go! Personally, I think the hosts are gonna be fantastic. I've always loved Steve Martin! And Alec Baldwin has proven with "30 Rock" &ndash not that he hadn't already with his hilarious "Saturday Night Live" appearances &ndash that he's a comedic force to be reckoned with!

Then there's the fact that there are a whopping TEN movies nominated for Best Picture.

"Precious" and "The Blind Side" are vying for the heartstrings vote. "Avatar" and "Up" are vying for the "ooooh pretty" vote. "The Hurt Locker" and "District 9" are vying for the action vote. "A Serious Man" and "Inglourious Basterds" are vying for the quirky vote. And "An Education" and "Up in the Air" are vying for the "act your age" vote.

So much good stuff! And that's not even the half of it.

Here are my predictions for the big winners. Let's see how I do!
