They are finally in! The stars soon will be getting all done up to walk the red carpet. The Oscars are a nominee favorite not only due to the prestige, but also for the attendee gift baskets. These babies feature everything from pda handhelds to luxury hotel vouchers to estee lauder cosmetics (typically valued around $40,000 per basket!!!).
Meanwhile, the hit movie "Dreamgirls" led Academy Awards contenders with eight nominations, but surprisingly was shut out in the best picture category after being considered a potential front-runner.
The sweeping ensemble drama "Babel" was close behind with seven, including best picture and acting honors for two newcomers to U.S. audiences, Adriana Barraza and Rinko Kikuchi.
Other best-picture nominees were the bloody crime saga "The Departed," the World War II spectacle "Letters From Iwo Jima," the road-trip comedy "Little Miss Sunshine" and the monarchy-in-crisis chronicle "The Queen."
Following is a list of all of the nominees and the categories for which they represent.
