Catt is live on the Red Carpet from the Academy Awards
In terms of fashion, who are you looking forward to seeing most on the Oscars Red Carpet?
I've been enjoying Emma Stone all awards season long. She takes risks but still gets it right every time. She dresses age appropriately, very classic silhouettes, but with an edge all her own.
Which films do you think will do well? Are there any in particular which you hope wins?
I think The Artist is obviously incredibly popular with the Academy. It will undoubtedly do well based on its numerous nominations. Sadly, it's also the film that the fewest people will actually see!
Which has been your favourite film from the past year?
I enjoyed Damien Bichir in A Better Life. Such a poignant yet simple story with beautiful performances. The Help and Hugo are my other favorites. I'm rooting for Viola to take home the gold!!
You've also done some acting, any plans to get back into this?
Yes, most definitely. Acting is my first love and I hope to return to it soon. My job at E! and job of mom keep me busy, but I'm engineering a way to incorporate acting into my life as well.
How do you manage with your two boys and your full time job?
Support! Lots of it. I share my boys with their dad, so thankfully we both take on the responsibilities required to raise two young people. Being a mother supersedes everything in my world and frankly makes me a better reporter/host. Nothing I do work wise is more important than parenting, so it gives me a healthy perspective and approach to my career.
What's coming up for you next?
I'm working on finding a fabulous dress for the Academy Awards! I'm also working on continuing to grow my charity, the Women Like Us Foundation. I am president of the Hollywood chapter. We mentor teen girls in the LA area, so in my spare time I'm dedicating my efforts to helping make a difference in these young ladies' lives. www.womenlikeusfoundation.org/Hollywood
