Even if you're camera shy, you can still be part of the Oscars action! Sportsbet.com is asking who you think will win the biggest awards of the night. But why bet on serious topics when you can play the odds with out-of-the-box topics? 

Here's the top eight weirdest bets you can make on the Oscars:

 

1. The color of Cate Blanchett's dress

The most popular choices right now are pink, black, and white. The least popular options are orange, yellow, and purple. 

 

2. Who will Leonardo DiCaprio thank first?

They're assuming he'll win his first Academy Award (this is his sixth nomination). The top picks are the crowd, Alejandro G. Inarrito and the cast of  The Revenant. Other options include Kate Winslet,, Rihanna, and Ryan Seacrest. 

 

3. Who will be Chris Rock's first target?

Most people think it will be Leonardo DiCaprio, but other options include Donald Trump and himself!

 

4. Length of the Best Actor's Speech

Each acceptance speech is given a 45 second time limit, but this bet is an under/over 49.5 seconds. 

 

5. The longest acceptance speech

You've got four choices: Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Director.

 

6. Who will win the most awards?

You've got two choices: Mad Max: Fury Road or The Revenant. Mad Max is the most popular choice right now.

 

7. The first Star Wars character to be seen 

Darth Vader is the most popular choice, following closely is a Stormtrooper and C-3PO. The last place option is Jar Jar Binks (obviously). 

 

8. A Star Wars character will accept an Oscar

People think this is more likely to happen than not. We shall see!
