OH THE GOLDEN GLOBES...
Sunday January 13 2008 @ 8:01PM
COMMENTS (0) | PERMALINK | TAGS

hey hey! so last year around this time there were a lot of festive golden globe award happenings (i even live blogged them in '07) but this year turned out to be a total bummer! of course i support the writers but this year i really missed seeing the awards live with all the stars & red carpet fanfare - especially since the ceremony is a bit more casual than the oscars - and usually more fun too! (don't forget the celebs are served drinks along with dinner!) tonight's awards were reduced to an hour long press conference - which i didn't bother to watch - how boring! below is the list of winners - i so need to go see the diving bell and the butterfly which nabbed 'best foreign picture' and director julian schnabel took the top directing honor! and even though nikki blonsky didn't win for hairspray - i'm thrilled marion cotillard took the award for la vie en rose - she's brilliant in the true life story of french singer edith piaf! anyways tomorrow it's back to the daily grind - oh good times! popbytes over & out for tonight...xxoo!

COMMENTS (6) | PERMALINK | TAGS

11:03PM
i am SO done - it's all over and i am glad - i couldn't deal anymore - i predicted 15 correct out of the 23 nominations i posted below! i am so glad 'brokeback moutain' nabbed best drama - i know it will win the oscar for best picture! phew i had fun tonight! popbytes over & out! xxoo

10:34PM
oh i am growing bored - i am glad 'walk the line' won best comedy/musical - i think johnny & june would be quite proud - here we go for best tv drama - i had all my bets on 'lost'...and yes i was right!

10:14PM
oh popbytes is growing tired! i have been blogging since 6pm - i am so glad to see ang lee win best director - he totally deserves it - and yes although i am gay - this movie is just awesome!

10:01PM
anthony hopkins totally deserves the 'cecil b demille' award! we love 'hannibal lecter'!

9:40PM
i am doing well in my predictions - 'desperate housewives' just won - along with 'paradise now' for best foreign film! of course as we move into the third hour - we all start to fade! but i am staying on top of all the happenings - so glad 'brokeback' won for screenplay! i love that movie!

9:16PM
i love jonathan rhys meyers - he is so damn hot! i knew he would nail this globe for his portrayal of 'elvis' i so love those aussies!

9:07PM
so all the 'desperate' ladies cancelled each other out - congrats to mary-louise parker for grabbing the award for her work on 'weeds' - and popbytes always loves some good ganja - rock on - and at least showtime has some awards under its belt - it will never be HBO - but at least they are trying...

9:04PM
jamie foxx is about to announce the winner for best actress in comedy/musical - i say it must go to reese - let's see...oh i called another - i do love me some reese - especially her oh so sexy husband ryan phillippe - all i can say is 'oh daddy' - i knew she would nab this award!

8:45PM
oh melanie griffith - you just gotta love her - ok did you all see 'cecil b. demented' - it's a john waters film that just rocks - and made me change my opinion on melanie by 360 degrees - although i still have a soft spot for 'shining through' - i am having loads of fun - i am thirty today and loving it - yeah a little wine helps - but i so love these awards shows - and tomorrow is the premiere of american idol - i am so in a pop tizzy overdrive! xxoo

8:30PM
oh my goodness did you all just see drew barrymore and her boobs? i thought i was tripping for a second - obviously no bra was involved - i thought they were going to jump out of the TV and swallow me - and i am not one to notice lady's boobs - but drew's were beyond out of control - i am surprised they didn't block it for the west coast delayed feed - and ah i just predicted another one correct - geena davis won for 'commander-in-chief' - i just adore since i love 'beetlejuice' & 'thelma & louise' so much - geena just rocks - and oh yeah who doesn't love 'the accidental tourist'?

8:25PM
ok i am 2 for 2 on my predictions - i am SO glad sandra oh won for 'grey's anatomy' - which is one of my favorite shows - and she is just so adorable and how often do you see asian actors getting awards - so rock on ms. oh - you did seem just a wee bit excited - i would watch those drinks if i were you! rock on - are we having fun yet?

8:09PM
first award i predicted correct! george clooney won for best supporting actor in 'syriana' - i loved the opening of the show with the whole 'pussycat dolls' take-off - and queen latifah was a great way to kick off the show - and damn johnny depp looks hot tonight!
7:57PM
ok people i am moving on over to NBC for the actual awards ceremony! i will be updating the winners below in GREEN - i hope i am correct in some of my predictions - oh i am having fun although this does seem like a lot of work - i hope some of you are enjoying it! rock on - i will check back in a few after they give the first award out...

7:52PM
charlize theron is so godammned hot! she is stunning! she is so damn sexy!!! long live the theon factor! (oh heidi klum and seal) - oh mariah carey just showed up in chanel - and her boobs are under control - and i think the black kinda helps soften the whole tit factor - she looks good and god bless our dear mariah (yeah i had some wine...)

7:48PM
oh michael bolton in 'gucci' and nicolette sheridan in 'armani' - what a fucking weird couple they are! and oh my gosh the red theme continues with scarlett johansson also donned in red - for sure red is the hot fashion color this year matches the carpet!

7:44PM
mira sorvino looks so weirddddd! she doesn't even look the same - i just watched 'romy & michelle's high school reunion' and i swear the mira in that movie is not the same mira i just saw on the red carpet - someone else MUST agree with me on this point! she looked so odd!

7:39PM
see even cheryl heines is wearing red! she is a hoot on that 'curb your enthusiasm' - oh my word did you just see the horror of cynthia nixon - i do love her to pieces - but she looks terrible - is she still with that 'girlfriend' of hers? the one that looked like a man? - and again i think felicity huffman looks stunning - she is such a classy lady & a great actress! oh my gosh the time is flying!

7:30PM
catherine deneuve - you gotta love the french - she really looked like she wanted to run far away from joan - i love 'umbrellas of cherbourg' - catherine rules! and now joan gets to do george clooney - something i could do everyday - i just love his whole personality and vibe - and those manly good looks sure don't hurt - and now melissa is with my dear jeremy piven he is so cute - and i just love my 'entourage' - i really am pulling for him to win - oh the commercial breaks are coming fast & furious now!


7:22PM
did you all see marcia cross - she is so wrong tonight - wearing a salmon color dress - it's just not right - with her red hair and pale skin - this was so the wrong color choice! last year i think she wore green - which is the perfect color for a red-headed lady - joan looked like she wanted to eat zach braff for breakfast - and now joan is going on about 'weeds' and mary-louise parker - i bet joan and melissa for sure get stoned - oh did you see gwyneth paltrow - she is glowing with her second pregnancy - i so love my dear gwynnie (and her super hot hubby chris martin) 40 minutes until the show starts...and yes i am doing this from the west coast delayed feed


7:11PM
red seems to be a hot color of the night - eva longoria is wearing a gorgeous 'bob mackie' dress - i didn't even know he still designed - i thought he just did cher - and now joan is with emma thompson who is acting like she doesn't even know who joan is - oh my gosh - melissa has my husband on - patrick dempsey from my beloved 'grey's anatomy' - i'm not sure about his tuxedo though but he is just so damn adorable! i love him! now joan is with rachel weisz who i think is kinda odd looking in a 'donna karan' gown - she is also 5 months pregnant - oh i love felicity huffman's dress - she looks awesome! melissa is back with jason lee - he is cute in weird way - but he also is a scientologist...


6:55PM
oh teri hatcher did 'versace' - and anne hathaway really just wants to meet alanis morrisette - i hated that purple dress of ms. hathaway's - she looked like a big ol' eggplant - ok one hour until the show starts!


6:35PM
ah hello! so i am tuned into TV GUIDE channel watching the joan & melissa rivers mess unfold all over the red carpet - i opted to watch this over ryan seacrest on E! - i think joan is at least funny - i think seacrest would be too dry for this red carpet - so i just spotted camryn manheim telling joan that she loves to come to this event just to see joan! she looked decent as she could! i do love her and i so miss 'eleanor frutt' and the practice...

did you also catch when joan was interviewing eric bana and his wife about munich - she had the balls to mention the film got mixed reviews and what did he think about that? he covered it up all very graciously - ok back to the show...xxoo


hey kids! i am so excited for tonight's golden globe awards - below are lists of the film & television nominees - i have marked my predictions in RED - as the show carries on tonight i will be back updating the winners and checking on my predictions - i don't want to use the term 'live blogging' since everyone and their mom seems to have jumped on the bandwagon with that concept - but in an essence that's what i will be doing - so check you all laters! popbytes out for now! xxoo

PRE GOLDEN GLOBE JITTERS!

COMMENTS (0) | PERMALINK | TAGS

oh my word! tomorrow night is finally here! the 63rd annual golden globes will take place in beverly hills at the hilton! this show also marks the beginning of awards season!

i always thought these globes to be kinda like the crappy version of the oscars but over the years i have truly come to love this often sassy show put on by the hollywood foreign press association - plus i really think the stars seem to seriously enjoy themselves since they can be seated at a roundtable with food & friends and more importantly drinks...which i am sure makes the time fly by faster than the boring drone the oscars have kinda come to represent - everyone overall seems to be just having fun and lavish gift baskets are always a blast too! the globes have also really become a fairly accurate litmus test for what films will indeed grab oscar gold! all my bets are still on brokeback mountain which i really do think will nab the oscar for best picture - it will for sure grab the globe tomorrow night - mark my words!

i also enjoy this awards show since they also honor TV which i tend to see a lot more of than films - although it is my new years resolution to watch more movies & finally catch-up with my netflix que (i caught the ring 2 last night - the first one was far superior...) anyways today was freezing in hollywood and quite windy - i was able to run a bunch of errands including a drop of shopping in santa monica and grabbing fresh oysters over in korea town - and now i am settling into a 2 hour extreme home makeover and trying to figure out what to post on my monday .mp3 tomorrow - which also happens to be my 30th birthday!

everyone keeps telling me your thirties are the best years of your life - so i am putting my best foot forward tomorrow and really looking forward to what lies ahead...looking back i can say my 20's were a blast - especially during my wild & crazy NYC days - oh i do miss the east coast so much sometimes but i have settled in nicely to west coast living so i am looking to LA/california to bring on some kick-ass years and some rockin' times for things here on popbytes - this boy is gonna work it! fuego i say! i'm outtie for now...much love to all as always - and oh yes i will be back tomorrow! xxoo

PREDICTIONS FOR GLOBES

hey kids! popbytes turns 29 today! phew! (yes im a proud capricorn - the lone pop goat!) and it's sunny as hell in hollywood - and warm (hi 70's lo 80's) - it's like i'm a july baby all of a sudden! i do love it! and i know they planned the golden globes to be on my birthday - it so just made perfect sense! and although i should be off the computer - i wouldn't have it any other way - i do love the globes - they have kinda grown on me the past few years - a little bit more casual and fun than the oscars (i'm sure for the celebs too - at least they get to eat and drink to pass the often dragging chunk o' time) - and they also include awards for TV shows (fingers crossed for nip/tuck to nab best drama!) - so it's just an all around good time - the build up is always better than the payoff - but that's just life most times...

and this year - it's not just my birthday and the globes - but it's also the triumphant return to the 'red carpet' with those wacky but oh so lovable ladies - joan rivers and daughter melissa who will slice & dice the fashion with those sharp-witted tongues as it strolls down the red carpet - and this time for TV GUIDE - rather than E! (who has starr jones - who cares what she thinks? i'm sure execs at E! are kicking themselves) - and i think this could be the push that TV GUIDE channel needs to establish itself as a true rival to E! - should be interesting - joan said there were no rules yet - and she promises to inquire about the real-life 'nip/tuck' status of all five desperate housewives - i can't wait to see teri hatcher - she is my fave gal of wisteria lane...ah miss susan!

below are my predictions - based on many things - the one i'm rooting for the most is sideways to nab 'best comedy or musical' - i simply loved it - tis just a small 'slice o' life) movie that says so much - funny, touching, and smart - i highly recommend you all get yr asses out to the movies! ray is probably it's strongest competition - but i still argue that it really isn't a comedy or musical - so we shall see - but alas keep checking back tonight as i will mark off the winners and provide any 'off the cuff' commentary you have come to expect from popbytes! ok now where is that birthday cake? popbytes out for now!
