As we near the end of this year's Oscars, The Queen aka Helen Mirren blazed onto the stage in a vibrant red dress to tick off the Best Actor nominees. While listing the attributes of the characters portrayed by the Oscar nominees, the word cojones even sounded dignified coming out of Mirren's mouth.

And the Oscar goes to the man who was favored to win - Daniel Day-Lewis for There Will Be Blood. This is his second Oscar and fourth nomination. Taking the stage, Day-Lewis knelt before Mirren and said it was the closest he'd ever come to knighthood. Day-Lewis said There Will Be Blood sprang "like a golden sapling out of the mad, beautiful head of Paul Thomas Anderson." He also acknowledged his co-stars, his wife (who he called beautiful and open-minded), and said thank you to everyone who deserves it. He finished up by thanking his children.
