Rsoamund Pike, That's All

Rosamund Pike

"She'd do amything for attention" - Elspeth Catton, Saltburn 

And that Rosamund Pike did at last night's Golden Globe Awards ceremony. Rosamund's outfirt was full tilt Saltburn! It would make Elspeth proud to be seen in it.

The veil, while a stroke of designer genius served a practical purpose. It seems Ms. Pike had messed her face up somewhat in a skiing accident, While that isn't funny, it resulted in one of the most amazing things I have ever seen worn on a red carpet.

Meaning she should have worn the veil even if the accident hadn'g occured.

Let's bend it like Rosamund this Monday January 8th 2024. Kick it with your inner Elspeth Minioons!

Hump Day & Chill

Michelle Yeoh

Alright we must Hump Day & Chill today to legend Michelle Yeoh winning her first Best Actress Golden Globe at 60 years young for Everything Everywhere All At Once.

Michele initially rose to fame in a series of Hong Kong action films where she performed her own stunts. She gained international recognition for the likes of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and the James Bond movie Tomorrow Never Dies.

While I did not watch the Golden Globes I have an even worse confession that I am not too proud of. I have yet to see Everything Everywhere All At Once! It's not that I have no interest, and all my friends who have seen it tell me they know it is something I would like. I just haven't gotten to it yet.

Thus Michelle's win is definitely the catalyst that will make it a priority for me to view.

Congrats Michelle! Time to Hump Day & Chill Minions...

Happy Anniversary, Drunk


With the Pandemic version of the Golden Globe Awards going down yesterday evening a lot of celebrities took a stroll down memory lane on Social Media. That's correct they posted pics of The Ghost of Golden Globe Awards past.

So I am giving my favorite Globes of the Past Award to Chrissy Teigen. Leave it to Chrissy, if she ever wants to do a reality show, she now has a title. To post the most self deprecating and funniest post from years gone by.

There's nothing more that I can say about this memory, as she has really said it all.

For those about to drink, like Chrissy, we salute you!

Golden Globe Awards

The 78th Golden Globe Awards

Today is the 78th Golden Globe Awards to be held in Beverly Hills, CA. Being a local living in Los Angeles we get these banners on lamp posts plastered about town.

Tina Fey & Amy Poehler are back as hosts, it should be interesting to see how they stage the show. That's one of the odder things I have enjoyed about the pandemic is how they pull off Award Shows. It sure brings out the Entertainment Industries creative side.

So kick back, grab some snacks and enjoy to quote the banner above it's "What the globe needs right now" - Cheers to that!

The Golden Globes

The Golden Globes Are Such A Tease!
Today "Hollywood's Biggest Party" The Golden Globes turns 77. That's a million in dog years, or something like that.

"Yes" I will watch them even though I personally don't put much stake in award shows at least The Globes are entertaining, unlike the stillborn Oscars, Zzzzzzzzzzz...

This being stated there really isn't much else to address. Except maybe I could be nice enough to provide you with a list of nominees. OK, yeah that's the ticket, here is a list of all the GG nominees, if you choose to watch the ceremony, cheers!

She Won't Be Ignored! Glenn Close

Shock & Awe
Glenn Close & Lady Gaga
While I have no issue with Glenn Close winning the Golden Globe for The Wife, it was needless to say quite the surprise. Let's face it the whole show was one random all over the place affair. Not your usual Globe ceremony, I mean the worst reviewed film in the Best Motion Picture Drama category, Bohemian Rhapsody won.  

It was truly surprising that the Hollywood Foreign Press Association did not crown Lady Gaga for her Movie Star making turn in A Star Is Born. She had the momentum and the film scored with audiences.

This being stated the win has sparked some entertaining memes & such, some of which I will share with you right here, right now. Of course Glenn Close uttering her famous line "I'm not going to be ignored, Dan" as Alex Forrest from Fatal Attraction is among them...Enjoy!

Paint It Black

Gal Gadot
Last night's Golden Globes were underwhelming at best, yeah there were a few great moments, but for the most part... However Hollywood did deliver on a rumored promise that all the stars would be wearing black to make a statement against sexual abuse in the Entertainment industry and beyond. 

The red carpet was black last night in what proved to be the most intriguing part of the awards show.

In solidarity, today I am running photos from the event of stars in their finest black. #TimesUp  #MeToo

On With The Show...

Getting "Red"y
Seth Meyers

Tonight Hollywood's biggest party, the Golden Globe Awards turns 75 - that's right folks the GG's are three quarters of a century old. To celebrate this milestone they got themselves Seth Meyers to host.

Even though I believe the only nominated film I have seen this year thus far is I, Tonya most likely I will watch them as the show tends to be entertaining because of it's spontaneous moments that one does not usually see on the tightly orchestrated Oscars.

Red Carpet Ready, Julia Louis-Dreyfus

Red Carpet Ready? You Bet!
Julia Louis-Dreyfus 
Nothing, I mean nothing will top Meryl Streep's Golden Globe speech last night. I thought about running it today since it was in a word, amazing, but of course by now everyone has posted and re-posted it so I decided to go another direction.

Here without further hyperbole is my favorite Instagram post about the Golden Globes...Julia Louis-Dreyfus! Although she did not win this year for her HBO show Veep she's a winner in my book for this photo which she captioned: 

"About to hit the red carpet & feeling confident. @goldenglobes@veephbo @karenkawahara#goldenglobes"


Confident, obviously. Who other than JLD would have the chutzpah to post an image as funny/hot/cool as this I ask you???

"Take your broken heart, make it into art" - Meryl Streep quoting Carrie Fisher

Grammy Nominee: Margaret Cho!!!

Winning!
Margaret Cho

This weeks Birthday Girl is on a roll with her fourth Grammy Nomination. Will number four be the charm? Even if Margaret doesn't strike gold, she's still winning! Extra! Extra! Read all about it!

Emmy nominated comedian Margaret Cho has been nominated for her fourth career Grammy nomination in the Best Comedy Album category today for her latest studio album, American Myth.   American Myth  is the follow-up to her 2010 Grammy nominated debut album Cho Dependent and is Margaret’s first new music in over 6 years via her Clownery Records label.  To order click here: http://margaretcho.com/shop/american-myth/ .  

I'm thrilled to receive this nomination and I share this honor with Garrison Starr and Roger Rocha and all the other artists who contributed to this album. Also it's going to be a blast to be on the red carpet reporting on all the fashions first hand as an undercover (sort of) officer for Fashion Police! – Margaret Cho


You can view all four videos off the album below; “Anna Nicole,” “Ron’s Got a DUI,” “Fat Pussy” and the controversial “(I Want To) Kill My Rapist.”   
Ron’s Got a DUI” – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIrvFK955KY
(I Want To) Kill My Rapist” -   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TXCmkhr-nE

 “I am extremely proud to release American Myth. This is an album of anthems and showcases my first efforts as a composer. I made it with my longtime collaborator Garrison Starr and an incredible and inspiring crew of artists. It is my glamorous and glittering tribute to family, comedy, anger, fame, gayness, grief, fat pride, love and hate. “ – Margaret Cho


Margaret returns to tv as special co-host on “Fashion Police” on E! Monday, January 9 at 8 p ET/PT with coverage of the Golden Globe Awards and and will also continue to tour with her ever evolving stand-up comedy show throughout 2016 and 2017.  She will continue to tackle difficult subjects with sensitivity and razor sharp insight. A pioneer amongst women in comedy, Margaret doesn’t take anything for granted

“It’s a wonderful thing to be known as a ‘safe haven’ for people who feel disenfranchised. The audience at my shows don’t necessarily consider themselves traditional comedy fans. I seem to be a secure alternative for people who don’t think they’re being represented in society. They come because my point of view satisfies a lot of what needs to be said out there, and that makes me really proud.”
