HOLLYWOOD - Bosses at style magazine Vanity Fair have cancelled their annual post-Oscars party as a mark of respect to Hollywood's striking writers.
As the Writers Guild of America strike enters its fourth month, publication party planners felt the lavish bash would be inappropriate this year.
A statement, issued on Tuesday, reads: "After much consideration, and in support of the writers and everyone else affected by this strike, we have decided that this is not the appropriate year to hold our annual Oscar party.
"We want to congratulate all of this year's nominees and we look forward to hosting our 15th Oscar party next year."
