Oscar-winner Hilary Swank says Oscar night really works up an appetite so she comes prepared. When asked on the red carpet why she has dashed to Astro Burger after the awards show for the past two years, she explained, "It's because you're starving!"

But this year she came prepared. Dressed in Versace, the actress showed Ryan Seacrest the contents of her little black bag. Inside? Nuts!

"I already ate the cake," she said.
