Angelina Jolie made headlines last night after flashing her right leg -- thigh high -- through the long opening of her black velvet Atelier Versace gown.
After taking the stage, hand firmly planted on hip and leg thrust forward in a provocative pose, Jolie presented the Best Adapted Screenplay Award to writers of The Descendants. Not to be outdone on his big night, Jim Rash, who shared the award with two co-writers, put his Oscar on his hip and mocked Jolie's sexy stance.
It didn't take long for the exposed gam to get its own Twitter feed under the name "@AngiesRightLeg." As of this afternoon, the account had nearly 18,000 followers.
"Look at this leg!!!" the Twitter account says. "You have to admit I'm one hell of a leg."
The pose also sparked a "Legbombing" trend on Twitter and plenty of blog posts with pictures and photo montages.
"Why did Angelina do that 'leg thing?' (But) if I had legs like that, I might, I guess..:)," actress Debi Mazar said on her Twitter.
