Oscar Nominees Reveal Red-Carpet Underwear Secrets

Anyone who knows their Oscars knows that nominees' fashion plans are strictly top secret until the big day. They seem to be more revealing about their designer undergarments, though.

While it may fit into the too-much-information file, some of the year's most celebrated actors and directors aren't afraid to talk about the product placement underneath those tuxes and gowns.

"What I do, because I get chilly, I like to wear long johns. The full one with the trap door in the back," said a joking George Clooney, a double nominee for his leading role in "The Descendants" and his adapted screenplay for "The Ides of March."

Nominated "Descendants" director Alexander Payne declined to describe his planned underwear, so Clooney spoke for him.

"Garanimals," he said, referring to the children's clothing brand. "Underoos."

Octavia Spencer, supporting actress nominee for "The Help," will not be repeating the triple-Spanx approach she took at the Golden Globes.

"I want to be comfortable and look good and have fun," she said. "So I'm just going to do the normal one here, one there. (Laughs.) Here a Spank, there a Spank, everywhere a Spank-Spank."

The shaping undergarments have become such a red-carpet staple for women that Spanx introduced a men's line designed to boost pectoralis muscles and minimize guts.

Berenice Bejo, who is nominated for her supporting role in "The Artist," may be planning to work her sex appeal on the red carpet Sunday, where she'll be accompanied by her husband, nominated director Michel Hazanavicius of "The Artist."

"You mean Spank or no Spank?" Bejo asked when presented with the underwear inquiry. "I don't think so, because of the dress I'll have, I don't think I'll wear too much."

The Academy Awards will be presented Sunday at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood.

Wow they really are going all out aren't they? George in longjohns. LOL

He certainly needed them for the BAFTAS, not so sure Sunday as it's in the 70's right now. I'm sure he'll look very dapper in what ever he wears, be it blue or black. Maybe he should do pink this time!!!??

I wonder if the actresses walking the Red Carpet wear "butt enhancers." I could use that device myself. My butt is so small that my friend says I have no ass. Nice.

do you want some of mine?

Sure do it's me. Maybe then I can sit for more than a half hour. LOL
