Hot Academy Award Duos

by Tracy Pepey 

Couture clothing, hip hair, borrowed bling — it doesn't mean a thing if you don't have the right arm candy. The Oscars' super sexy couples were decked out with the perfect accessories — each other. From just dating — like hotties Emily Blunt and Michael Buble — to old married couples, we got an eyeful of love from Hollywood's hottest twosomes. Check out our gallery of duos that did it just right.

Caliente!

Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony looked like they were having a ball, laughing and joking on the red carpet. It's nice to know these Latin lovers can take a break from their multitude of projects, kick back and enjoy a night on the town.

Red-Hot Lovers

After walking the red carpet with BFF — and new mommy-to-be — Naomi Watts, Nicole Kidman met up with Keith Urban, her country crooner husband, after the show at the Vanity Fair party. If Keith were smart, he wouldn't let Nic out of his sight when she looks that gorgeous!

Baby Love

Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard are like two kids in love. Maggie said that it would be really exciting to get the opportunity to work with her man sometime. Aww! If these new parents can make a movie as well as they make a baby, we will be seeing them back at the Oscars in no time.

A Pretty Pair

We have nothing but love for these two mommies. Tammy Lynn Michaels stood by Melissa Ethridge during her bout with breast cancer and got to be by her side again at the awards, as Melissa scored the Oscar for Best Original Song, "I Need to Wake Up," from Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth. Talk about "through good times and bad," these lovely ladies are each other's biggest support system — and that's no lie.

Making Beautiful Music

Emily Blunt and Michael Buble might be our favorite new twosome. "We are in love," they revealed to Ryan Seacrest, but denied engagement rumors. After seeing this gorgeous and talented couple together, we bet he sings to her at night, and we're pretty sure a ring is not too far down the road.

Parental Guidance

We just can't seem to get enough of Mr. and Mrs. Smith. When their son, and Will's costar in The Pursuit of Happyness, Jaden, presented an award with Little Miss Sunshine's Abigail Breslin, Will and Jada practically flooded the stage with tears of pride. Love them!

Seriously Stunning

Nobody's laughing at ol' Eddie Murphy tonight. Even though he didn't take home the gold, with Tracey Edmonds on his arm, this stellar couple had jaws dropping. You know who's probably not happy with how sizzling these two are? Edmonds' ex-hubby, Babyface.

Success Story

It was once hard to believe that we would ever be praising Mark Wahlberg for anything other than his fab abs, but he's certainly showed us. Nominated for Best Supporting Actor in a Martin Scorsese film, with his beauty of a girl and mother of his child, Rhea Durham, by his side, Wahlberg went from Marky Mark to making his mark in a blink of an eye.

Size Matters

Wedding Crashers' Isla Fisher and Borat's Sacha Baron Cohen may not see eye to eye (he's more than a foot taller than her), but they certainly know how to have fun together. Beaming from ear to ear on the red carpet, we're sure these two giggled at all the silliness that goes on behind the scenes at these glamorous Hollywood events.

Chemistry Class

When a Britney-bald Jack Nicholson and good friend Diane Keaton presented the Oscar for Best Picture, we felt a certain heat coming through the screen. Maybe it's just the connection they have as former co-stars, but we wouldn't be surprised if there was a little ditty about Jack and Diane that we didn't know about.

Cruise Control

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes reunited at the Vanity Fair party after what must have been an agonizing few minutes apart for the inseparable pair. Tom went solo to the Oscar ceremony to quickly present an award, and just as quickly make an exit. The deliriously happy-looking newlyweds probably text messaged each other the entire time they were apart.

Forever Your Girl

The Last King of Scotland's Forest Whitaker sparkled with his wife, Keisha, who looked breathtaking in her sweeping gown. After winning the Best Actor Oscar, Forest thanked his partner of eleven years, as tears ran down her face. Even if he had lost, Forest still would have walked away a winner with a golden lady.
