Kristin Chenoweth is herself leading the fashion-field at the Oscars in Los Angeles, rocking a dazzling sparkly gown while helming ABC's coverage of the biggest night on the movie calendar. Chenoweth gushed about her fellow celebrities' fashion choices on the red-carpet, though she herself won high praise on Twitter for her eye-catching gown.

Kristin Chenoweth Wowed On The Oscars Red Carpet

"J. Law's dress is spectac, but I may like Kristin Chenoweth's best. I like the black frothiness...and her cute topknot," said one fan on the micro-blogging site. Another said: "Just realised Kristen Chenoweth has Tinkerbelle hair. I love it a bit more now. And the sparkly dress is awesome." Another user somewhat meanly suggested, "Adele looks like an ogre next to Kristen Chenoweth! Looks good in that sparkly dress though!" Though her gown won plenty of acclaim, Chenoweth's interviewing techniques left plenty to be desired. "Amanda seyfried [with] Kristin Chenoweth: Holy hell was that interview a trainwreck. #oscars," one viewer tweeted, while another said, "Honestly, what is with Kristin Chenoweth? I have a headache just from watching." Chenoweth was joined by Lara Spencer, Kelly Rowland and the returning Robin Roberts as part of ABC's coverage of the evening.

"I have been waiting 174 days to say this: 'Good Morning America!'" GMA host Robin Roberts said on her return to the show.

Roberts, who has been absent for five months to the day, took an unplanned hiatus for health reasons. The 52 year-old anchor had to undergo a bone marrow transplant to treat her advancing myelodysplastic syndrome or MDS, a rare blood disorder. During her treatment and recovery, there were numerous points when Roberts was hoping to get back to the job, but was never given that ok from the doctors, until now. "I keep pinching myself and I realize that this is real. This is really happening," she said, according to The New York Post. "Faith, family and friends have brought me to this moment and I am so full of gratitude."

As usual, Robin opened the show from the familiar Times Square studio, this time for a supporting audience of family, friends and fans, as well as the doctors and nurses who helped her on the road to recovery. In a brief speech upon her return, the anchor thanked everyone for their help and support during the five months and added: "As my mother said, ‘We all have something.’ Everyone’s story has purpose and meaning and value and I share this morning, this day of celebration, with everyone."

Fans of Good Morning America could well be waiting until mid 2013 for the return of their beloved host Robin Roberts.

Roberts recently underwent major hospital treatment for bone marrow transplant after she was diagnosed with myelodysplastic syndrome. The disease attacks the blood and bone marrow and even though she’s on track to recovery, her immune system is still weakened, meaning that an early return to work could turn out to be hugely problematic for her health.

According to TMZ, it’s looking as though Roberts will be unable to return to the show until May 2013 at the earliest and June is looking a more likely prospect. Several sources connected to Good Morning America told the news site that doctors are “pleased with her progress and say she’s right on schedule.” That’s good news for Roberts, but still frustrating for the TV presenter, who is said to realize that the rest is necessary, though it sounds as if she’s itching to get back to work.
