Red carpet story - the staple of the Oscars

By the new year, preparations for the famous Academy Awards ceremony begin in Hollywood, and in this lavish festival, the Hollywood elite arrive to walk the red carpet as they enter the ceremony honoring the best among the best in the film industry. The carpet is woven within the history and scene of the Oscars ceremony in Hollywood, So what is her story?

To begin with, the seduction and allure of the red carpet comes from the color itself, which is closely associated with humans. Red, blue and green are considered to be one of the primary colors, and we can find many shades of red in nature; In animals, plants, rocks, and sand, and sometimes at sunrise or sunset.

The color red and the Oscars carpet

The red color is associated with a long history with humans, because it is one of the first colors that were used in prehistoric art, and it was the first color that ancient civilizations learned to manufacture, reproduce, and then mix in different shades, it was used in paintings and later in the manufacture of dyes, and the Egyptians and Mayans used it on Their faces in celebrations, and Roman generals covered their faces and bodies in red when celebrating victories in battle.

In ancient Greece, reference was made for the first time to the red carpet in the Greek tragedy "Agamemnon" written by Aeschylus in 458 BC, where the hero returns victorious from the Trojan War and his wife Clytemnestra welcomes him into the house, by spreading a red carpet so that his feet do not touch the ground. , but Agamemnon hesitates to walk on it because he knows that this honor is only given to the gods, and in the end Agamemnon becomes a symbol of betrayal and death, and the color of the carpet will represent his blood, not his victory.

The import of materials for the manufacture of red dyes in ancient civilizations such as Egypt was expensive, which forced them to use color in moderation, and the red color acquired greater importance in Rome as the color used by the army and citizens in ceremonies and victories, and this prestigious position of red carpets and clothes continued over the centuries, and by During the Renaissance, these objects became symbols of the wealthy (clerics, merchants, and rulers).

Red oriental carpets appeared in artistic paintings, and carpets were used as backgrounds and to cover furniture in these works of art. During the Renaissance, nobles and wealthy people wore unusual red clothes, and carpets were placed under their feet on stairs or on a platform, so red carpets gained their reputation as a symbol of strength. and wealth in Europe.

The importance of red carpets and the color continued even as Europeans settled in the New World. The community of Georgetown, South Carolina, is said to have rolled out a red carpet for President James Monroe upon his riverboat arrival in 1821. Thick scarlet red carpets were used in 1902 by the Central Railroad in New York as passengers board the 20th Century Limited, and these examples are potential origins for the "red carpet" rollout.

The red carpet made its way across the United States and the oldest known use of it in Hollywood was during the opening of Grauman's Egyptian Theater in 1922. In that year, the Egyptian Theater hosted the first showing of a Hollywood movie (Robin Hood, starring Douglas Fairbanks). Symbolizes him, the new royal family of Hollywood.

However, the red carpet had to wait 39 years before landing in her new home.

Oscars red carpet history

Although the Academy Awards ceremony has been televised since 1953, the red carpet was not used at the Academy Awards ceremony until 1961. On April 17 of that year, the red carpet was used for the first time at the Academy Awards at Santa Monica Ballroom. Civic Auditorium, and by the time Bob Hope hosted the 38th Academy Awards for the first time in color in 1966 the red carpet had become an integral part of the circumstances and pageantry surrounding the Academy Awards.

The red carpet has gained status equal to the Oscars in its own right since then, especially when guests disembark and show off their costumes on the carpet, where designers can show off their latest creations and designs worn by Hollywood's elite.

Not only has the red carpet been used at the Academy Awards, but it has also inspired other entertainment awards ceremonies, with a special blue carpet used at the MTV Video Music Awards and Nickelodeon using an orange carpet at the Kids' Choice Awards.

There may be other entertainment celebrations that use other colors of carpets, but the red carpet will forever be the most famous and distinctive.

I’m recommending DR BELLO to everyone who has herpes simplex virus to get the cure from him. I was diagnosed with genital herpes in 2023 and I have been searching and asking questions to see if I could get something to cure the disease because I did not believe what the doctors say that no cure is found yet. I came across a comment on Youtube and the person testified how she was cured from herpes and hpv after using DR BELLO herbal medicine. I quickly contacted DR BELLO and explained my problem to him and he prepared the herbs and sent it to me through UPS and gave me instructions on how to use it and told me to go for checkup after usage which I did after two weeks of taking the herbal medicine and my result was NEGATIVE. I waited another month and retested, the result was still NEGATIVE and my doctor told me that I am completely free from herpes. Am so happy and grateful to DR BELLO for what he has done for me and I will continue to share this for people out there to know that there is a cure for herpes.

I’m Lawal from Dubai. I was exploited by a Crypto Exchange Investment Platform and was made to invest $198,000 worth of crypto to this company. They made it all look real and it was impossible to easily figure out the sham they were running. I was just like every other curious person and investor who decided to invest in cryptocurrency trading all in the aim of making profit, but I was exploited and lost my hard-earned money to this service, if not for the intervention of Mr. James, a cyber security and crypto recovery expert who was able to help top officials from the government/companies recover their emails and cryptocurrency successfully, I would have not been able to recover my crypto assets. The spammers had contacted me through a popular social media platform (Facebook) which I later found out to be a sham, But James made me realize many other victims like me invested in this platform, I’m bringing this to you here that it was a scam to steal crypto from people. James was able to recover my crypto successfully and has since been able to assist two of my partners in recovering their crypto from this same online crypto investment platform.
