The 83rd annual Academy Awards telecast is finally over. That means we can all stop tweeting our criticisms from inside our tiny studio apartment and take a look back at the actual high points of film's biggest night. Let's face it, viewers knew who would take home the little bald gold man before the presenters even announced it. Thus, we, you, and everyone we know only tuned in to marvel at one thing: the hot actresses walking the red carpet. Now, here are the saving graces of the Oscars, organized into a countdown, just in case you understandably missed the show for the Knicks/Heat game.

Now, here are the saving graces of the Oscars, organized into a countdown, just in case you understandably missed the show for the Knicks/Heat game.
Sharon Stone
10. SHARON STONE
In this dress, our basic instinct is to pounce on this cougar.
Reese Witherspoon
9. REESE WITHERSPOON
Last night, the Oscar presenter and her perky ponytail came as Malibu Barbie, which reminded us of her Legally Blonde hotness.
Jennifer Hudson
8. JENNIFER HUDSON
The former Oscar winner for Dreamgirls and last night's Best Original Song presenter became one of our own fantasies in this eye-catching outfit.
Anne Hathaway
7. ANNE HATHAWAY
We were too distracted by the number of Hathaway's sexy wardrobe changes to notice if she actually hosted well or not. Well played, Anne.
Natalie Portman
6. NATALIE PORTMAN
The first time she was nominated for Best Actress (for Closer), Portman was there to honor her work as a stripper (in the movie). The second time for Black Swan, she's pregnant. She should win another Oscar for being the only actress who can pull-off being hot during awkward times.
Halle Berry
5. HALLE BERRY
Berry's tribute to Lena Horne last night foreshadowed her own in the distant future. In dresses like this, who would ever forget her?
Penelope Cruz
4. PENELOPE CRUZ
Before you speculate about her enhancements, Cruz just had a baby with her Oscar-nominated husband, Javier Bardem. Although the Biutiful star lost, he still took home two trophies.
Camila Alves
3. CAMILA ALVES
Alves dressed up to accompany her hubby Matthew McConaughey, one of the evening's presenters, and to allegedly make this list. Or so we've been told. Mission accomplished.
Mila Kunis
#2. MILA KUNIS
Although she was snubbed for a nomination, Black Swan co-star Kunis, last night's presenter for Best Animated Feature Film, left an impression on audiences that even the Academy can't overlook this time.
Jennifer Lawrence
1. JENNIFER LAWRENCE
The Best Actress nominee for Winter's Bone splashed onto the scene in Baywatch-chic that made her film's title ironically appropriate.
