Angelina Jolie’s Leg

Angelina Jolie started her own meme last Oscars Awards Night 2012 – rather, Angelina Jolie’s leg started it all. On the red carpet, she flashed her leg was too much – and perhaps way too awkwardly? – until everyone started to notice.

Angelina Jolie’s leg even overshadowed the wonderful black dress from Versace which she donned that night. Aw, what a pity. But the leg issue is much more fun to cover right now. So let’s give the leg some leg room, shall we?

Here is the pose that made all the ruckus during the 2012 Oscars. Look at Angelina Jolie’s leg, sticking out like it wants to upstage Angelina herself.

The black velvet dress from Versace which she was wearing that night simply bowed down to the media hype that Angelina’s leg caused! In fact, even fellow celebrities noticed how “the leg” wanted its own space in the red carpet. For instance, she received a little mockery from Jim Rash, who tried to copy her pose after Angelina presented the awards for Adapted Screenplay (which the wonderful film The Descendants won, by the way). Just look at Angelina, then Jim Rash. Again, Angelina, then Jim Rash. LOL!

Angelina Jolie’s leg has gotten so much attention that it now has its very own… drum roll please… Twitter account! Tada! Here it is, a screenshot of Angie’s Right Leg on Twitter:

And the rest of the online world started to take notice as well as Angelina Jolie’s right leg started to go wildly viral. The netizens provided their own versions of Angelina Jolie’s right leg on many of our own pop icons.

But okay, enough about Angelina’s right leg. It has gotten quite a lot of attention and won’t get jealous of the attention we are about to give Angelina’s outfit. It’s a funny coincidence that right now, even NCIS is showing an episode where an amputated leg has been the object of an investigation… Or did NCIS mean to show this to join the hype?

Angelina wore a wonderful black gown from Atelier Versace. It had a full train that made the dress quite amazing on the red carpet. Oh, of course, there was that slit that ran up Angelina’s thigh that made this dress all the more memorable. She wore this dress with pumps from Salvatore Ferragamo. A wonderful ensemble, truly.

People say that perhaps Angelina was trying to upstage Jennifer Aniston. Maybe Angelina was not content with just having Brad Pitt after Jennifer Aniston; maybe she also wanted her leg to have it all. Look at Angelina’s right leg, then Jennifer Aniston’s… Angelina’s leg, then Jennifer’s. Hahaha.

That was Jennifer Aniston last 2010 during the Golden Globes. She flashed some skin and her legs got a lot of attention. Now, Angelina Jolie’s right leg wants a piece of that cake. Or maybe they both like Brad Pitt… and they both like thigh-high slits? What do you think?

Oh, and please don’t follow Angelina Jolie’s leg on Twitter. Or maybe you should, just to poke fun on how celebrities sometimes make mistakes on the red carpet. They are just human, after all.
