Thank Routeco It's Friday! (TRIF)

So this Sunday marks the biggest weekend in Hollywood, yes it’s the Oscars!

This means that the stars will be out in their hundreds with a hope of winning the highly acclaimed Oscar for their performances in recent films.

Setting up the Oscar ceremony starts well in advance of the event, it takes months to prepare the venue.

Thousands of people are involved in activities from constructing the venue (they seem to build on it year after year, to creating the giant Oscar statues, setting up all the cameras, organising the seat placement starting with the most famous at the front).

The stars also have lots of preparation to do before the big day including visiting famous designers to get dresses and outfits custom made, attending gifting tents where the stars are given jewellery to wear on the red carpet that are worth millions (yes, they don’t even have to pay!) Not to mention hiring a team to dress and prepare the stars on the day, they can have as many as 50 people!

A range of cosmetic and plastic surgeries are also performed before the Oscars to ensure the stars are looking their absolute best from Botox to laser therapy and much more…

Will you be watching the Oscars Sunday night?

Have a great weekend!
