Easy to Read

 

This weekend the stars wore glamorous outfits.

 

The Academy Awards are commonly known as the Oscars.

They are the most famous movie awards.

 

The Oscar Award

 

The award is a small statue in the figure of a man.

He was given the nickname Oscar.

That is why the award show became known as the Oscars.

 

The stars pose for photographs and do interviews on the red carpet.

 

The Oscar awards are given to people working in the movie industry.

The awards are presented in a huge theater.

A red carpet leads to the entrance of the theater.

It's an opportunity to take photographs of the stars in their glamorous gowns.


There were amazing outfits at the Essence Black Women in Hollywood Awards too.

 

Junior fashion editor Lulu checked out the Oscars weekend looks.


Enjoy looking at the fabulous styles she chose as her favorites!
