She has faced some criticism in recent weeks over
her dull taste in red carpet attire during the promotional tour for her film In
The Land Of Blood And Honey, choosing matronly gowns and drab colour tones over
her previously sexed-up image.
But Angelina Jolie enjoyed a return to her old cheeky, provocative self
last night at the Oscars, flashing acres of long, lithe leg in a daring
thigh-high slit gown.
The actress' apparent determination to show off her enviable limb
attracted the desired attention from fans, fellow guests and television viewers
- but not all of it was positive.
While the 36-year-old sashayed down the red carpet before the ceremony, stealing the spotlight from Best Actor nominee Brad Pitt with her leg-baring antics, social networking sites were quickly heating up with thousands of comments about 'Angie's right leg.'
As she posed at different points along the red carpet the actress was captured continuously adjusting her Atelier Versace gown to ensure the cameras caught the leg from every angle.
The limb in question quickly became a trending topic on Twitter, with
users debating over her enviably trim thigh, the slightly awkward and
over-enthusiastic pose, and joking about the emphasis on her right leg in
particular.
'Rainman would have no problem counting Angelia Jolie's leg,' one Twitter user joked, while another added: 'Fun fact: Angelina Jolie only shaved her right leg tonight.'
It wasn't long before a parody Twitter account called 'Angie's Right
Leg' had been set up, declaring, 'I'm a leg, get a load of me!' and 'You have
to admit I'm one hell of a leg!'
So far the account has attracted over 10,000 followers.
