Juno Writer Refused $1 Million Oscar Shoes

I don't know what it is about the Oscars but we always have a tendency to think the worst dressed is actually the best dressed, the one actor/writer/director who goes their own way and actually takes a chance on the red carpet instead of sporting another Marchesa snore. This year they'll fry Juno screenwriter/ex-stripper Diablo Cody for daring to accessorize a Dior leopard-print gown with her sexy-lady tattoo and hefty turquoise jewelry, but we thought she looked fantastic. And interestingly enough, the big news here is not what she was but what she wasn't wearing--namely, the million-dollar diamond-encrusted Stuart Weitzman heel. AP reports that Cody wrote on her MySpace blog how she was upset to find out after trying on the shoe that there was a publicity push attached to it, and had no idea they cost a million dollars: "I'm actually really pissed about this, now that I think about it. They're using me to publicizie their stupid shoes and NOBODY ASKED ME." Ms. Cody chose to wear a subtle pair of gold flats instead.
