2012 Oscar Winners

The annual Academy Awards were held on Sunday night in California and there is plenty to talk about from the 84th annual ceremony. The host, Billy Crystal, made his ninth appearance as the show’s front-man. His opening video with George Clooney and Justin Bieber brought some laughs and so did the jokes Crystal delivered during the program.
