Oscar Date 411

Did you see the cute fellow sitting next to Rooney Mara? The camera caught the bearded guy as the best actress nominees were announced tonight at the Oscars. That's Rooney's boyfriend, Charlie McDowell.

The boy with the girl with the dragon tattoo is 28 and the son of Clockwork Orange's Malcolm McDowell and actress Mary Steenburgen, and his stepdad is Ted Danson. Charlie is also an aspiring director, the ex-boyfriend of Kristin Chenoweth, and a witty presence on Twitter. Via Charlie's Twitter account, he writes letters to the girls who live above him, aka GAM. A recent tweet, "Dear GAM, 'I'm a vegetarian now! Except for chicken, I love chicken . . . and fish . . . and bacon . . . and crab cakes..' I guess I'm a vegetarian too."

Check out shots of Charlie and his gorgeous girlfriend, Rooney Mara, from tonight's Oscars.

In his acceptance speech for the best supporting actor Oscar, Christopher Plummer thanked his wife, Elaine Taylor, for "coming to my rescue every day of my life." The couple has been married since 1970.

Elaine, an actress in her own right, was a Bond Girl in 1967's Casino Royale, around the same time Christopher Plummer became famous for his role as Captain Von Trapp in 1965's The Sound of Music. She met her future husband a few years later in 1969 when they were working on Lock Up Your Daughters in Ireland. Although he was 14 years older and drank too much for her taste, she met back up with him in London after filming. By October of 1970, he was drinking less, and they were married by the same reverend who wed Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor. In his memoir In Spite of Myself, Christopher called Elaine, his third wife, "my one true strength." Here are photos of the Oscar winner and his wife at the Oscars tonight!

Aw. Oscar nominee Jonah Hill brought his mom, costume designer and fashion stylist Sharon Lyn, as his date tonight! Jonah has shared sweet words about both his parents in the past. On Letterman recently, he said his parents were supportive of his career choice. But he also told a funny story about his mom, whom he says has "gotten a little carried away with the pride in her son's success." Jonah said, "My mom saw Woody Allen. Walked up to Woody Allen, one of my all-time heroes. And said, 'Hi Woody, nice to see you. I'm Jonah Hill's mom.'" If she loves meeting stars, she's hit the jackpot tonight! Here are some shots of the mother-son duo tonight.

Once again, Michelle Williams brought her BFF, Busy Philipps, as her red-carpet date tonight! Michelle, nominated for her role in My Week With Marilyn, has been friends with Busy since their time together on Dawson's Creek. From Dawson's to the Oscars — not bad!

Tonight we'll find out if Busy is a bless or a curse. She's already walked the carpet as Michelle's Oscar plus-one twice before, for Brokeback Mountain and Blue Valentine, and each time she lost. So far this year, Michelle's had good luck, winning a Golden Globe and an Independent Spirit Award for her latest role.

Busy's daughter has noticed that her mom has been quite occupied attending award shows with her friend this year. Busy tweeted today, "I reminded my daughter that I'd be gone today & tomorrow with Michelle and she replied, 'Mama, Michelle is nominated for too much stuff.'" Busy is also close to Michelle's daughter, Matilda Rose Ledger, acting as her godmother (with Jake Gyllenhaal as the godfather). See these sweet best friends on the carpet tonight.

If you've been following along this award season, you'll recognize the beautiful tall blonde standing next to nominee George Clooney tonight. It's Stacy Keibler, the hard to miss 5'11'' former Baltimore Ravens cheerleader and WWE Diva. While George, already an Oscar winner, is nominated tonight for his role in The Descendants, Stacy is known for work as a professional wrestler, her third-place finish on the second season of Dancing With the Stars, and now, for her high-profile relationship with George Clooney.

Stacy, 32, and George, 50, have been an item since last Summer, and the good-looking pair made their official red carpet debut as a couple at the NYC premiere of The Descendants last October. Tonight, Stacy tweeted: "We are off! I feel like I'm going to the prom." See pictures of their big date night now.

The Artist's Jean Dujardin has reached the height of a Hollywood career, winning for best actor tonight at the Oscars! But before international movie fame, he was a TV star in French. From 1999 to 2003, he was on Un Gars, une Fille (A Girl, a Guy), alongside his future wife, Alexandra Lamy. The pair, who posed side by side on the red carpet tonight, were costars on the humorous series about an everyday relationship. Although they met on set, they didn't marry until 2009, bringing together their children from previous relationships. Jean has two sons and she has a daughter. The two comedians currently live in Paris. See more photos of Jean and Alexandra from tonight's big event!

Viola Davis and her husband, Julius Tennon, made a dashing pair tonight at the Oscars! The couple, who stayed at George Clooney's Italian estate on Lake Como during their honeymoon, have been married since 2003 and adopted daughter Genesis in 2011. Julius is an actor, too, who has had roles on ER and Friday Night Lights.

You may have noticed Viola's natural and beautiful hair look tonight. She actually credits Julius for helping her go wigless, explaining: “He said, ‘If you want to wear it for your career, that’s fine, but in your life wear your hair. Step into who you are.'"

See some cute photos of the two from the Oscars now.
