Miley Cyrus at the 2008 Academy Awards

After days of rehearsals and months of planning the Academy Awards are finally here. And it wouldn't be a proper Oscar shindig without some fabulous red carpet royalty showing off for the shutterbugs.

Miley Cyrus began her journey from the arrival area into the Kodak Theatre wearing a sexy, sassy red dress and turned heads wherever she went.

Part of the fun of Oscar night is seeing how the stars choose to express themselves with their glamorous ensembles, and the Hannah Montana star definitely scored an A+!

With so much talent in one location, it's no wonder Hollywood's elite pull out all the stops to outshine each other on this glitzy evening.
