It's been a busy week for Patti Murin. On Monday, it was announced that the erstwhile Lysistrata Jones would be joining the cast of the upcoming Broadway show, NERDS THE MUSICAL. That same day, she began rehearsals with co-stars Rory O'Malley, Bryan Fenkart, and Lindsay Mendez, and now, she is capping off her week by live-blogging the Academy Awards' Red Carpet.
Anyone familiar with Patti's legendary BACHELOR/BACHELORETTE recaps or her epic #OneChicago live-tweets (@PattiMurin) knows that she will have plenty to say about the stars, what they are wearing, and the typically cringe-inducing questions they are forced to endure. And look at the pictures above, Patti knows fashion! You can also continue celebrating with Patti all year long in her #PartywithPatti initiative!
ABC's live Red Carpet coverage kicks off at 7:00pm ET, and Patti will be commenting on it all until the ceremony begins at 8:30pm. Who knows, if she's feeling feisty, she might even start sometime during the E! Network coverage, which kicks off at 5:30pm.
If reading this blog and following her tweets aren't enough, NERDS THE MUSICAL begins performances at the Longacre Theatre on April 1st, no foolin'. Tickets are available now!
8:25 PM Okay friends, thank you so much for joining me! I will be live tweeting the Oscar ceremony, so follow me at @PattiMurin! Huge thanks to Matt Tamanini and Broadway World for having me!

8:05 PM Leo is "proud to be here representing a movie like this." His subtext is, "pleeeeeeaaaassseeee giiimmmeeeee the troooophyyyyyyyyy pleeeeeeeeeez"
8:03 PM Michael Fassbender, looking AMAZING. Fun fact: I watched his movie "Steve Jobs" just days after I found out that "Nerds" was coming to Broadway, so it was extra exciting for me!
7:57 PM Lady Gaga looks amazing, but major HOT MAN SHOUTOUT to Taylor Kinney of NBC's "Chicago Fire"! Watch it every Tuesday at 10 PM EST, immediately after "Chicago Med" at 9 PM EST! Cause....my husband...and stuff.....
7:55 PM Kinda missing the red carpet fashion disasters.....
7:53 PM I refuse to believe that Leo and Kate/Rachel and Ryan are NOT completely in love and at the Oscars together right now.
7:45 PM I wasn't sure how I felt about this one, and now I just want to go frolic in the hills and twirl to the sound of sweet birds singing a lovely tune.
7:37 PM Okay, when are we going to admit that Rooney Mara is an alien?
7:32 PM Kris Jenner just told Giuliana, "You can eat me under a table any day." (shudders, checks ABC, sees commercials, sheds a tear, goes back to E!)
7:30 PM It's Jill Biden!!! Not to be confused with my favorite Twitter parody account, @JillBidenVeep. Follow her now.
7:26 PM Switched to ABC Red Carpet for a hot second, but they were talking about things that matter and we'll have like 3 hours of that tonight. Back to E!
7:19 PM Meanwhile, on Twitter...
7:14 PM Aaaaaand Heidi Klum is in her Easter finest.
7:11 PM Ryan Seacrest just asked Jennifer Jason Leigh about her dress and quickly aborted the questions because she is drunk. Also, she apparently puts ice in her champagne. Respect(?).
7:09 PM Fun sports fact: Olivia Munn is dating Aaron Rodgers, Quarterback of the Green Bay Packers! That's a football team in Wisconsin. Football is the one that isn't round. Okay, big men tackling each other.
7:06 PM Hey, it's the Oz bouncer from "The Wiz: LIVE!" #Common #helooksreallygood #likereallyreallygood #andhelikescookies
7:01 PM FYI, I LOVED Eddie Redmayne in "Les Miserables."
6:58 PM Seriously, she looks stunning in a simple sparkly green gown custom designed by Calvin Klein. And she's got simple hair and makeup and I can't wait to MEET HER ON 48TH STREET
6:56 PM I LOVE Saoirse Ronan and plan to possibly accidentally meet her when we are on Broadway right across the street from each other, that's not creepy at all, ha ha she looks so pretty!!!
6:52 PM Looks like clavicle and all-boob-except-nipple are still in vogue this year. #OliviaWilde
6:46 PM Maybe let's not discuss how we don't eat before award shows, okay lady actresses? Thanks.
6:36 PM WHOOPI!!! Guys, I did a Broadway show with her. Not a humblebrag, just a brag. #Xanadu
6:34 PM If you're not following Jacob Tremblay on Instagram, your life is not complete. THIS KID IS A PEANUT!!!
6:28 PM Alicia Vikander again, and I'm really loving how simple her jewelry is! Just some gorgeous earrings, no bracelets, no necklace. One ring. In unrelated news, I now have a girl crush on Alicia Vikander.
6:27 PM Sam Smith, looking like...a guy in a tux. Good work, sir.
6:21 PM Alicia Vikander in custom Louis Vuitton! Gorgeous yellow gown. I would totally hit that, I mean wear that.
6:18 PM Mindy Kaling looking simply elegant in an understated gown....that is black...with blue sleeves...and her hair is pretty. #professional
6:09 PM Pretty sure Leo will win tonight based on his body of work. Which includes "Growing Pains" and the first "Parenthood" TV series.
6:03 PM Imagine standing in a line to talk to Ryan Seacrest? (shudders)
6:00 PM Andy Serkis was in "13 Going On 30"?????????
5:55 PM I'm just gonna leave this here. All hail BDJ.
5:49 PM I also want to make sure you're all aware that I'm on my couch in fuzzy knit pajama pants and an 8 year old cardigan. So, let's keep that in mind as I "critique" these Red Carpet looks.
5:42 PM And Giuliana Rancic is drinking her body weight in champagne. Like, literally I think. Also, Ryan Seacrest needs a girlfriend, stat.
5:41 PM It's Wolfgang Puck! REALLY digging his chef-inspired ensemble.
5:34 PM Welcome friends! I'm currently tuning in to the E! Red Carpet coverage, which always promises to be...interesting. Right now they're awkwardly waiting for someone to arrive (anyone, anyone really, someone PLEASE arrive), so enjoy Ryan Seacrest and Giuliana Rancic as they make small talk and waste time! Also, I just learned how to spell her name.
