The Best 2009 Oscar Updo Hairstyles
From sleek buns to glam ponytails and undone chignons, the Oscars always inspire the hottest hair looks and 2009 was no exception. While most of the stars opted for updos, a few went with half-up dos. Here, the red carpet styles we love:
By Andrea Lavinthal
Anne Hathaway
She can act, she can sing (who knew?), and Anne Hathaway can pull off an updo with style.
Kate Winslet
It's fitting that the Best Actress winner would have an updo that's pure Hollywood glamour.
Vanessa Hudgens
High School Musical star Vanessa Hudgens performed onstage with real-life boyfriend Zac Efron. Here she is on the red carpet with a soft chignon and face-framing curls.
Jessica Biel
We bet Justin Timberlake gave Jessica Biel his seal of approval on her tousled half-up style.
Miley Cyrus
Miley Cyrus sported one of the most popular looks of the night a loose side bun and long bangs.
Amy Adams
She wears a nuns habit in the Oscar-nominated movie Doubt, but in real life, Amy Adams is a total knockout. Here, she works a sophisticated updo with a deep side part.
Angelina Jolie
Angelina Jolie's half-up style shows off her amazing emerald earrings (her other best accessory of the night).
Beyoncé
Beyoncé's Oscar night ponytail is sleek in the front with soft spirals in the back.
Freida Pinto
Slumdog Millionaire star Freida Pinto paired her vibrant blue gown with a sophisticated updo.
Natalie Portman
Natalie Portman's swept-back updo draws even more attention to her gorgeous features.
Penélope Cruz
Best Supporting Actress winner Penélope Cruz looked stunning in a vintage Balmain couture gown and a ballerina-inspired bun with eyebrow-skimming bangs.
Reese Witherspoon
Presenter Reese Witherspoon shows off the night's second most popular look a simple half-up style.
