Red Carpet Roundup: Oscar Buzz

Now that the Golden Globes are over, our eyes are focused on the next big red carpet awards show: The Oscars.
Here are two beauty news tidbits that have us at attention:
1. While there is a “Best Makeup” category for the Oscars (more on that below), there isn’t a “Best Hair” category. Sad! Celebrity hairstylist Ted Gibson, of “What Not to Wear” fame, is aiming to change that. He’s started an online petition to create a Best Hair category and is hoping to grab 100,000 signatures. So far he only has 350, yikes! Click here to sign up.
2. The shortlist for this year’s “Best Makeup” category is already out, with seven films on the docket including “Albert Nobbs,” “Anonymous,” “The Artist,” “Gainsbourg: A Heroic Life,” “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2,” “Hugo,” and “The Iron Lady.”
Sadly, “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo” didn’t make the cut. We found that pretty surprising, given Rooney Mara’s incredible transformation into such a hardcore, punk version of herself. (Fun fact: she got real piercings and shaved part of her head for the film).
Need a point of reference to understand what films made the cut and what didn’t? Click through to see some of looks!
