JULIE CHRISTIE - CHRISTIE SLAMS 'FAKE' OSCARS GLAMOUR

JULIE CHRISTIE has slammed Hollywood's leading ladies for gracing the Academy Awards red carpet wearing borrowed clothes and jewellery. The Oscar winner - who is nominated in the Best Actress category for next month's awards (Feb08) - claims true glamour is about creating your own look. Christie says, "It's product placement now. 'Who are you wearing, from where have you borrowed your jewels? "I don't know where the glamour is in admitting you've borrowed your jewellery, or you've been put together by a stylist." And Christie reveals she won't be wearing an expensive frock and gems when she attends the Hollywood bash: "How about not wearing jewels? Would that be so terrible? !And what's wrong with fakes? They glitter, that's the point isn't it?"
