Diablo Cody Wins Oscar, MySpace Community's Respect

Remember those million dollar shoes we showed you Friday? Well, the price tag came as a shock to Juno writer Diablo Cody, who took to her MySpace page to clear the air:

I must have somehow missed the part where my shoes cost a MILLION F**KING DOLLARS and my ‘choice’ of footwear would be publicized nationwide. I honestly thought they were just sparkly shoes.

I’m flattered that they picked me (surprise!) to wear the Pimp Shooz… [but] I’m actually really p**sed about this… They’re using me to publicize their stupid shoes and NOBODY ASKED ME. I would never consent to a lame publicity stunt at a time when I already want to hide.

Diablo sported gold ballet flats on the red carpet before her big Oscar win for best original screenplay. We tend to agree that the thought of spending a million dollars to craft a pair of shoes seems ridiculous, but this whole thing just reeks of “publicity stunt.”

“I just want to run and hide”? Please bitch. You changed your name to Diablo Cody. No one with that name is a wallflower.

Not only did I miss the Oscars, I missed the entire Sunday completely. Whiskey and Wine are NOT my friends.

I’ll be back for Commies. Later Hags.

Nothing cures a hangover quite like runny eggs.

Because nothing screams “I want to hide” quite like a leopard print dress with a thigh-high slit.

No. 8 dumbass says:

no one seems to have mentioned that celebs usually dont “BUY” the diamonds they wear to these events but rather rent them…

so im guessing she didnt actually buy the shoes just chose them to wear for the night.

I think its high time someone brought stripper tranny wear to the red carpet. Helen Mirren sure as hell isn’t going to do it.

No. 12 kate says:

My whole issue was that she looked SO uncomfortable in her dress. If you can rock the leopard, go for it, but she was tugging on that slit and ended up looking like an insecure teenager. Considering it was her first time at the awards, she should have worn something she felt comfortable and beautiful in.

I just keep wishing she had flame-red hair and a bone in it somewhere…

Actually, dumbass I already mentioned that. Get it together. I’m really beginning to hate this broad. She is disgusting. No wonder she started stealing screenplays and quit stripping. Who wants a lapdance from that?

No. 17 Stoney says:

She looks pasty and the flats aren’t doing her thick legs any favors. Nice bruise. I’m no one in Hollywood, and even I know you should cover that shit up for the red carpet. Cover up that ugly tacky tat while you’re at it! And get a decent dress!

No. 18 Lisa(#1) says:

Stoney, all that shit gives her “indie cred,” just like her diatribe against those ugly diamond shoes.
