:: GOLDEN GLOBES 2010 ::

alright, friends.

our first award show together in the new blog. did everybody watch?!?

THE GOLDEN GLOBES. one of Hollywood's biggest parties. it's my third favorite day of the year. (1. my birthday, 2. academy awards)

let's get right down to celebrating!!!!

ENJOY, and as always, my photo comments will be below the photo. :)

(if you missed my recap of LAST YEAR'S Golden Globes and would like to re-live that first, please do so at this time.)


ok. let's get to the hotties.




ANNA KENDRICK. apparently she was in Twilight, although i have no memory of this. but this year - she's a total hit as George Clooney's sidekick in Up in the Air. great movie. she was great.

AND. guess what? it gets better. SHE'S FROM MAINE. maine, usa. PORTLAND, maine. yes, that's right. and she's my age. BASICALLY - we could have been best friends.

and then! it gets worse. she was in that movie The Marc Pease Experience where she got to make out with Jason Schwartzman. that SHOULD have been me.

whatever. i like her dress. she looked pretty. i am a fan of the creamy colored dressed with sparkly patterns on them. we saw it two years ago on Sienna Miller (who i named Best Dressed), and we saw it last year on Miley Cyrus. and i'm sure we've seen it a bunch of other times too.



WHOA, here are some hotties. when i saved this photo to my computer, i saved it as "leonardo unbuttoned." MAN. i just go crazy when men unbutton their jackets and there are vests underneath. and if it's on Leo, well, that pretty much closes the deal. super sexilicious. Marty looks great. Bobby DeNiro looks great.



ok, our first roadbump. CHLOE, let's discuss this dress. i'll go first. "WHAT?!?!" i just don't understand this dress at all. i mean, we all know and love Chloe for her craziness. but, really? and i know i sometimes get excited about ruffles. but this is overboard. i decided if it didn't have the ruffle along the top - it would be a fine dress. an elegant dress. but the ruffle around the top just makes it comical.

but! she was in the Coconut Records music video for 'Any Fun' SO, i can't hate on her too much. plus, she's on Big Love - and she won! which was very cool.




Juliana Margulies. she won the Globe and immediately the thought that went through my head was, "ER REUNION, ER REUNION, ER REUNION." and then sure enough, she stopped and kissed George Clooney. "YES!!!!" that was a great moment. her dress is a tad strange. it's the 'one-shoulder style.... 50 years in the future.' but, she looks pretty.




ok, i had never heard Leona Lewis speak until the Globes pre-show i was watching online. her speaking voice sounds like drunk girl from SNL. anyone else think this? she sounds like a drunk sorority girl. and why was she there? oh yeah, the song from Avatar.




hey! speaking of Avatar, it's Zoe Saldana. remember when she was in Center Stage? i do. and Crossroads? yep. anyways, now she's making the big bucks. i wonder if her and Sam Worthington have the same life-long, intimate friendship that Kate and Leo have. probs not.

and that joke that was made that was like, "if you haven't seen Avatar yet, then you're the only person who hasn't." yeah, that's me. i STILL haven't seen it. and i am embarrassed to admit that.




Will and Amy! hotties. Amy rocking the one-shoulder.




ok, I want to be married to Jeff Bridges. they are Robert and Susan Downey in 20 years. i love it. and i love their umbrella too.




TOM AND RITA!!!!! with a printed dress!!!! so great. they are another beautiful couple. really, who doesn't love Tom Hanks?




Jane Krakowski looking lovely in a purple, one-shoulder dress. this year was definitely about the one-shoulder revolution. (which, i believe kate winslet started at last year's Oscars)

so, the night before the Golden Globes, i had a dream that Jake Krakowski and Hunter Parrish (Silas on Weeds) were in this secret, passionate relationship. but, they had to keep it secret because of their jobs. weird? yeah.




Vera Farmiga. she looks like she has crazy eye. doesn't her eye makeup look insane!? and her general expression isn't helping. kind of like if a clown went to the Globes. eh, i'm not a fan of the mermaid dresses. but, she was really good in Up in the Air.




Toni Colette! again, with the creamy dress and the gold sparkly. i liked it. very similar to Jennifer Garner's dress. i was surprised she won, but i really want to see her show.




I always forget that William H. Macy and Felicity Huffman are married. and then i see them together and remember. and i think, "oh yeah! that's sweet." i just like them together. and i also really love her dress. i think it's a pretty style and color, with a little glam.




hey! it's Susan and Robert Downey. i feel like Susan is pretty much just as famous as Robert. they're just great. and! this year they look great. last year they both looked like hott messes. but this year they have glammed up. and i loved his speech. i think i would also like to be married to Robert Downey.




Tobey Maguire and Jennifer Meyer, maker of the famous "gold leaf necklace" that Leonardo gives to all his lady friends. overall - i like her dress. i like that it's a little shorter in front. i don't know the "style term" for that - but i think it's classy. and i think her and Tina Fey are wearing the same shoes. i guess i kind of wish her dress was plain on the top and didn't have the ruffley. if the ruffley had started at the skirt it would have been perf.




VINNIE!!!!! or, Adrian Grenier, as he's known in the civilian world. remember when Courtney told me that his last named means 'attic,' and since i live in an attic, clearly we're meant to be together? yeah, i still believe that.




not a fan of Kate Hudson's attire. she looks like a cake topper made out of fondant. but, it looks like the guy behind is kind of in love with her.




did everyone see those hott and racy pictures of Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem on the beach last week? yeah. sexy. and clearly that's why she's so tan. overall - i'm not really liking her dress. which disappointed me because i named her best dressed at the Academy Awards last year. i don't really like black against her skin tone.




REESE!!! she looked so beautiful. but when doesn't she? when Reese wears her hair down, straight and a tad wind-blown, i say "oooooo!" but when Jennifer Aniston does it, i say "uuugggghhhh." Reese can do no wrong. and apparently Jake is trying to win her back.




i guess maybe Tea Leoni thought the golden globes was also a business meeting? or, maybe she came from a business meeting and didn't have time to change? i can't really hate her because we have the same birthday. i feel like this outfit would have worked if David had also dressed down. maybe went without a tie. or, had on sneakers. he just looks too fancy, and she just looks too casual.




Cameron, MUCH BETTER than last year. she was also a hott mess last year. this year her and Amy Poehler went with the red and black theme. i think it workds. it's a cute dress. for once, i think she looks nice. but that did not stop me from hating on her because she was sitting next to Leo all night.




this is Jessalyn Gilsig. or, Terri from Glee. or, Claire's real mom from Heroes. i think her dress is pretty. again, with the color scheme. it looks a little uncomfortable at the top, which makes me wish it was either just plain strapless, or more of a "classy sweetheart" cut.




Charlie from Heroes!!! um, i mean, Jayma Mays. or, Emma from Glee! she's so cute and totally has the best wardrobe of anyone on television. i can't really figure out her dress. the bottom half doesn't really seem to go with the top half. but, i like the bottom, and i like the top. just maybe not together. aw, she's just so cute.

but i was thinking earlier tonight: what would have happened if Zachary Quinto had gone to the Globes?!? would he have been photographed with her?! Sylar and Charlie?!? yikes! that's just so scary to think about.




Gabourey Sidibe. why did i think her name was Gabrielle? i thought this until last night and i was like, "why is everyone struggling to say her name? it's so normal. didn't anyone see High School Musical?" and then i realized that her name was not Gabrielle.

anyways. i cried when i first saw the Precious trailer. i think it's looks so good. and it looks like her performance is completely deserving of all the attention.

love her green dress. and love the white accessories. she looks totally glam.




Taylor Lautner. hottie? eh. i'd choose R. Pattz.




So, i read something where Sandy was named one of the worst dressed. now, i wouldn't go that far. i thought her dress did look like something you would see at a high school prom, but i thought it was a pretty overall. i mean, i love prom dresses. just not for the golden globes.

and now it's totally between her and Meryl for Best Actress. i think it will be Meryl. i mean, come on, let's not forget about those 'All About Steve' previews.




Maggie Gyllenhaal! again, not a fan of the mermaid style. but i think she looks really pretty. and i actually like the dress a lot. yeah, she looks good.




TINA. FEY. i love it. just love it. she looks great. (same shoes as Jennifer Meyer?) i hope it was easy for her to sit down. but, love the short style. love the hoop. love her hair. and i think that pattern in another style dress would look too whimsical, but here it just rocks.




Nicole Kidman. she usually wears this color. eh, it works. pretty dress, i suppose. i thought she looked good on tv. but, maybe not so much in this photo.




i really liked Fergie's dress. i am not a fan of her tan or her hair. i guess i don't like the dress on her, but i like it overall. it would have looked better if she still had her lighter hair.




oh brother. Drew Barrymore. where did she find this dress with the sea creatures growing on it? i have no idea, but it looks illegal. i named her best dressed at the Globes last year. remember she wore that great blue dress? but here, this is just not working for me. but, i was really happy she won for Grey Gardens, because she did awesome and that was a great movie.



MERYL WINS A GOLDEN GLOBE (interlude)



how beautiful does she look here? she looks so beautiful!




did she break the Globe record with her 7th win? is that right? i'm not surprised.




people love Meryl. people really love her. she's great. and she was great in Julie and Julia. AND ALSO, Fantastic Mr. Fox. ("if what i think is happening, is happening.... it better not be."



AANNNNDDD, back to the red carpet...



Marion Cotillard!!! i actually really like this dress. it's sexy and classy. and she looks beautiful in this color. now, i have no idea if this is right, but i'm guessing that her dress was designed by the same designed who did Kate Winslet's Oscar dress last year. remember? the style. the lace. yeah.




Lea Michele!! she looks beautiful! great dress. great hair. she's gorgeous. and i loved the part on Glee where Kurt said that her character "managed to dress like a toddler and a grandma at the same time." that made me laugh a lot. she's just so great.




Kristen Bell!!!! Veronica Mars!!!! Elle from Heroes!!! i think she looks totally beautiful. i have two pictures of her so that we could see both her full length look and her necklace. i think she's got a really pretty necklace on. it's glam, yet fun.




and the necklace totally works with the short dress. love it. (veronica mars movie all the way!!!)




HOTTIES!!!!! John Krasinski and Emily Blunt!!!! totes loving the navy blue suit next to the pink dress. they're great. and they're getting married soon! in Boston!?




Harrison Ford standing next to a skeleton!!




Heidi Klum and Seal. Seal looks great. but Heidi? eh, i say hott mess. the flimsy little sleeves. the messy hair. the ruffley mermaid. and the silver blue color. it just doesn't work. even on a super model.




KATE KATE KATE!!!!! she played it simple. and safe. i liked her black dress better last year. but she's beautiful. and she's my favorite. and she can do no wrong. and she killed during last year's award season, so she reigns supreme.




Amy Adams! LOVE her accessories. the brooch, the purse and the shoes. love it. it's like a sunset color against the green. it looks great. she fun and flirty!! and she sat next to Kate Winslet all night! i bet they talked about babies the whole night. and i really hope they're bff now.




Stephen Moyer and Anna Paquin! Bill and Sookie! i don't like her dress, but they look really happy together. and he's a hottie.




Ginnifer Goodwin. love the blue and black. always a fan. not a fan of the bunchy, bubbly skirt. but, she looks cute.




AAHHHHHH HALLE BERRY!!!! you're so hott, WHY do you have to wear this dress?! it looks like something Beyonce would wear. Halle, you are classier than this dress. but i loved Ricky's comment about Catwoman having the power to wash herself all over. that was funny.




Carey Mulligan. this year's breakout star? maybe, i guess. she's currently dating Shia LaBeouf. i think her dress is okay. totes cute headband. overall: eh. but i really want to see An Education.


:: JULIE'S PICK FOR BEST DRESSED AT THE GLOBES 2010 ::


there was only ONE dress that i kept seeing in the pictures that every time i saw it i said, "oo i like that." and at first i kept searching for a better dress. and then i realized that if i kept thinking this about this dress, then i must name it the Best.


Congratulation, CAMILLA BELLE:




i love this look! i love the dress! i don't know why! but i think she looks great! so cute, so fun, so glam. it's perf. and the three tier pointy thing is awesome. love it. she's so pretty! and so not dating Joe Jonas anymore! which makes me like her ever more. :)




Jeff and Kate! they make a pretty gorgeous couple. it was very exciting when he won. it looked like the two of them shared a little moment on stage. great. she'll probably present him with Best Actor at the Oscars too. especially after his standing ovation. the people love him.




GLEE winning Best Musical or Comedy Series!!!!! probably for the first time ever, a tv series has fallen into the musical category. NICE!!! they look so happy. that makes me happy because that show is so great.




THE HANGOVER winning Best Musical or Comedy Feature. so, i saw the first half of this movie. didn't really care if i finished it or not. i don't get why it was so good. can someone tell me? it just seemed like every other stupid movie. except i found it pretty rude.




AVATAR winning Best Dramatic Feature. oh, James Cameron and Jon Landau. i hadn't seen Jon Landau since he was on stage accepting awards for Titanic! and good 'ol Jim Cameron. still seems like kind of a jerk. still seems pretty arrogant. but hey, i guess the guy's a genius. and i will always love him. duh.



:: AFTER PARTIES ::

i had a really hard time finding good after party pictures. or, finding any at all, actually. most of the parties looked pretty tame this year.



Alexander Skarsgard!!!! hottie! from True Blood. apparently he was making out with Kate Bosworth all night. ah well..





Robert and Sandy! love it! he won for Sherlock Holmes! really? okay, HFPA. they look like they're having fun together. what color nail polish is she wearing? smoke?



Mrs. Ari!!!! from Entourage. her real name is Perrey Reeves. and she's so great on Entourage. her and Jeremy Piven are the greatest. i liked her dress. sexy and teal. i'm all for it.


and now, i'd like to present a segment that i've never done before, and i'm not sure i'll ever do again. an interesting segment. a curious one. i'm not sure whether to blame the lighting guys, or the makeup guys. either way - it's crazy. enjoy.


:: PEOPLE WITH FUNNY COLORED FACES ::





Heidi Klum standing next to a green guy. i don't know who he is exactly, but he's got a green face. should we tell him? do you think he knows? ok, now it's awkward.




Jamie Presley has an orange face!!!! and she looks so evil! what's going on!? are her and green guy planning some sort of funny business!?



(end segment)





Cameron and Camilla!




Cameron and Kate Bosworth. Cam looks really old in both these pics, i think.




Jennifer Garner and Gerard Butler!!! why are they together? do they know each other?


and now, for another segment. i always like to do a funny little thing at the end of these posts, and when i saw these pictures, i knew this recap would be nothing different.... please enjoy


:: GERARD AND JENNIFER, WTF? ::




what are they doing behind that curtain?



what is happening here? wardrobe malfunction? Gerry seems pretty interested.



it's a laugh!




ok quick, now act sexy!




ok now act cute!!!






and somehow they managed to pull it together to present. now don't they look adorable?



(end segment)


so, as i'm sure you noticed, there were NO pictures of Kate and Leo making bad choices at wild parties together. i searched the internet pretty deep. nada. believe me, i'm as disappointed as you.

BUT! i did find a new picture of the two of them that i hadn't ever seen before. it's definitely from sometime last year when they were promoting Revolutionary Road.

Dear Kate and Leo, please get married now. Thanks.




AWESOME. so perfect. they are the hottest best friends ever. ok, i guess they can stay best friends. no married license needed.

but let's just remember how PERFECT they looked together at last years Globes.....




AAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! hottness!!!! so much hottness. love them. oh so much. i can't help the freak out, i'm sorry. i try not to freak out when there is Kate and Leo, but it always happens.



AND THAT, my friends, was the 2010 Golden Globes. please see here for a complete list of the winners.

hope you enjoyed the recap of the fashion and the show. i enjoyed writing it.

and now we wait for the Academy Award nominations!!!!! 2 February!! 5:30am!!! so exciting.

ahhhh the wonder of Awards Season. my favorite time of year.


ok. it's 3:07am. tuesday morning. i guess i should be thinking about bed? i don't know. i got into bed last night at 3am and sat there for an hour. i couldn't even force myself to lie down. until like, 4:05am and then my eyes started itching and burning. and then i knew it was time for sleep.

alright! have a great day!!!! a great tuesday!!! a ruby tuesday. she's hungry and is getting mad that i'm not feeding her. i will, don't worry.

i feel like i have more to say, so i'll update again soon. until then! take care. drive safe. be well.
