Besides watching Jamie Cakes' butt and bulge on the Oscars.
We were enthralled with the hottie handing out the golden statuettes.
The gorgeous extra is screen legend Omar Sharif's grandson, Omar Sharif Jr.
The Advocate has sourced some quotes from the cutie pie.
Sharif Jr. grew up in Egypt so he knows -- hands on-- about inequality and unrest:
Well, it was bittersweet being on stage yesterday, just because… I’m having such a great time, it’s such a wonderful experience, and known that so many of my friends and my family are living through such a tumultuous time. That being said, after 30 years… or lets say centuries or millenniums — people are finally standing up and voicing their legitimate claims to self determination. Human rights and equal rights — it isn’t based on religion, based on politics, based on gender. It’s across the board. Actually, the first time I met Bruce Cohen, the producer of the Oscar, was at a benefit for the American Foundation for Equal Rights where Elton John was singing. They raised a substantial sum to fight Prop. 8. Coming from the Middle East especially, I’m mindful of these issues, and it’s not something you get to pick and choose."
On Jamie's Oscar histrionics, with the tights and the Monroe-esque look:
The point of hosting a show is to entertain. You do whatever you can. It’s not about you. Ego aside, it’s about entertaining. It’s Hollywood’s biggest night.
