Take a look at the candid pans of camera from Bullock gets up and says something to Streep and then turns as Streep reaches out to her and Bullock in a complete daze of depression combined with chemically depressed reactions turns her back on Streep (who is caught as off guard as she had left Seacrest)and Sandra awkwardly attempts to navigate the steps for her 'acceptance' speech.
For some reason, I find this Sandra-Bullock-as-trashed-Jacqueline-Susann-character (if only she sang, she could be Neely O'Hara) scenario hysterically funny.

Be sure to read the last line ^ in this/or, the last word, whatever.
At least, now that it is Tuesday looking over the pictures to try and figure it out, I have figured out what I couldn't on Sunday night: why was she wearing her hair that way? That, lipstick?. The dress, scared me to death; and, I'm usually very judgemental of people like the fashion-editor
at The New York Times (come Sundays) who savages the dresses in the rain at the Golden Globes or the night that Chloe Sevigne, whose dress was stepped on (and she), nearly lost it.
Which would really not be so bad! now, would it? We have seen " quite a lot of Chloe" on HBO Sunday nights and sometimes Friday nights in the bedroom as sister-wife #2 on Big Love, which is why her dress was getting stepped on because Chloe wins. I'm not exactly sure what it was that night at the G.G.'s but perhaps, "composure" or fast on the comeback? She's kind of known for being quick with the rejoinder.
Anyway here goes about Sandra who at least is not the other Sandra B. and at most is usually more like, well, like Knoxharrington said.
She was obviously uncomfortable. First of all the Dorothy Lamour hair. Today I realize, the movie that brought her there -- had her in blond didn't it? I haven't seen the movie, just the trailer several times over because they really wanted to get this movie out there to a recalcitrant public being publicly blatant.
Who better than Scout(code name: for nickname of Nelle Harper Lee the writer who is the daughter of Atticus Finch, in: To Kill a Mocking-Bird) to convincingly make this movie--The Blind Side, and do that with Southern pluck.
But because I just saw Sandra Bullock in passing, I can't recall if the character she played ( a real person in the audience that night at the Oscars)kept wearing a head-band or a tied scarf (or not?) which is usually a give away of keeping a wig tied firmly in place in case the hair pins are not firmly doing the job of attaching the wig to the coif-netting.
If that doesn't work, and you really go Blond as a brunette, there's hell to pay as it grows back. I did that once in reverse, being a brunette (really quite black)but I was born with carrot-top red hair that graced out to auburn by adulthood; and said, to hell with it, and let it grow out while pop-artists said, "How did you do that? It's great!". Pre-punk, for sure.
But Bullock like all in the film-trade can not afford to do that,and her hair appeared on Sunday night to be super shiny, which means (conditioned) and I think she added "hair to be worn over the right shoulder".
Consequently, now being ultra dark black brunette, that is where the red-orange lipstick tone comes into play but it is hard to hit your color and the make up person never fails to say, It is your color!
You end up feeling lousy, on your big night, whatever the occasion happens to be, but winning an Oscar can leave you in the doldrums. I hate to say this but I have to because I am reminded of Mrs. Olivier (Vivien Leigh) playing Scarlet O'Hara at Tara, in Gone With the Wind, whipping up a ball-gown out of those green velvet draperies....
Sandra's presentation dress was more like crushed "what"(?) I do not exactly know; but, some columnist will tell us.
