Lots of actors appeared on the beloved series Gilmore Girls before they were famous (remember when Jon Hamm picked up Lorelei?), but did you know that funnyman Seth MacFarlane also had a guest spot on the show? In this clip from a 2002 episode, this year's Oscar host plays Zach, a business-school classmate who graduates with Lorelei, finds out how wealthy her family is, and then is kind of a jerk to her about it. Even Ted wasn't this rude!

The 2013 Oscars nominations were announced this morning with Emma Stone and host Seth MacFarlane listing out the stars and films that are up for the honors at the 85th Academy Awards. Seth opened the nominations wearing a gray suit and blue button-down shirt. Emma Stone wore a white dress with a black belt.
Big nominees included Silver Linings Playbook and Les Misérables, which racked up eight each, but it was Lincoln that earned the most with 12.
