Oddsmakers hoping to cash in on the Oscars might do well to tune in to Sunday's Screen Actors Guild Awards.

As shown by the fact that all but two of its movie-acting nominees are exactly the same as those singled out by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, SAG, the union that celebrates actors, is also very good at setting them up to win Oscars.

It's not an awards show without an after-party.

When the last statue is presented at the Screen Actors Guild Awards on Sunday, Hollywood's biggest movie and TV stars will mingle, munch and dance the night away at the official awards bash, sponsored by PEOPLE and the Entertainment Industry Foundation.

The Shrine Auditorium's parking lot is being tented and transformed into an old-style Hollywood club where the likes of Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Anne Hathaway, Christina Applegate and Kiefer Sutherland can relax on leather couches and dine on Wolfgang Puck food. The Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy Camp All Stars will provide the night's soundtrack.

Guests also will walk home with gift bags filled with goodies from L'Oreal Paris cosmetics, Green & Black's Organic Chocolate, and Grey Goose vodka. – Mary Margaret

They had everybody talking during their major red carpet entrance. But Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie seemed unable to keep their eyes off each other at the Screen Actors Guild Awards on Sunday.

Stealing kisses at their table or just romantic glances, the twosome stuck close inside the Shrine Auditorium, with the TV cameras checking in on them often. But the lovebirds soaked up the affection from at least one other person. Mickey Rooney approached the two at their table before the show, gabbed for a bit and posed for a picture.
