From Tommy Chong to Viola Davis, Celebs Turn Out for Oscars Gifting Suites

I was having a dream the other night. Tommy Chong and Viola Davis were there, and Bonnie Morgan was wearing shoes for hats. Wait, no, that was the GBK Oscar's Gifting Suite at a super secret Beverly Hills location. Sometimes it is hard to tell reality from your dreams, especially during awards season.

While the big awards were given out on Sunday, Feb. 26, to a select few, the week before was filled with celebrity-filled gifting suites. Celebs had their hair braided by WEN's hairstylists and blown out by TIGI, and let Wolfgang Puck caffeinate their lives at Secret Room's pre-Oscar suite at the SLS Hotel. Friday and Saturday, at GBK's pre-Oscar suite, nominees sipped 4 Copas organic tequila, planned what to build with their Pixels.com gift certificate, booked a plane ride to Costa Rica to enjoy their stay at the Retreat and relaxed with a nice Burke Williams massage. Il Palato and Ike's Place fed everyone and a very lucky few received a red carpet–ready Juisko watch.

Through March 13, the Madison and Mulholland pop-up shop at Hollywood and Highland is selling the items inside the infamous $25,000 Oscar nominee gift bag.
