The Annual Golden Globes - General Discussion

[Bewitched]

Sigh.   Millie Bobbie Brown makes me sad.  She should have been with her castmates and in a dress not meant for a mature woman.   Y'all can all get off my lawn.

[Neurochick]

Whoa, Viola Davis looks about ten years younger than she normally looks.  She needs to wear her hair natural more.  I like her eye make up.

[Chas411]

Leslie Bibb will always be the ever grating Brooke McQueen from PopulR to me. I forget that she's with Sam Rockwell.

[magpye29]

Was it just me or did anyone else think Al Roker came off as more than a little tone deaf when he called someone (can't remember who now) "little lady?"  My jaw DROPPED!

[Browncoat]

Is that NBC woman really that short, or is Alexander Skarsgard that tall?

[ABay]

With the poofy hem on the sheer cape? sleeves?, Anjelina Jolie's dress reminds me of the kind of thing Zsa Zsa used to wear.

 

ETA: But never in black, dahling. It makes the skin look sallow.

I felt the same. It was word seeing her alone on the carpet pouting at the camera. Is she separate because she's nominated individually? I've always found that group charming as a whole.

I thought the same thing about her not being with her classmates. The same thing happened at the Emmy's too.

I forgot Alexander Skarsgard had shaved his head. Well he has a buzz hair cut going now.

Any publicity about Kate Hudson annoys me, but then I see her interviewed tonight and she seems adorable.  ?. Loved her happy birthdays to her son and her 90-year-old grandma.

[formerlyfreedom]

Alexander Skarsgaard is adorable. It's nice to see him NOT be menacing...

[Cupcake04]

I just do not get how showing up in a black dress, blinged out with sequins and stones, and dripping with diamonds shows that you are standing in solidarity.  I just think the whole idea, while great in theory, has lost it's impact in the execution.....they are all still trying to out-do each other with their dresses.  Maybe if they all showed up in a black cotton shift dress and flats with no makeup or jewelry would've really said something.  Or the Handmaids cape or something.  That would make a statement.....not a black sequin gown just for the sake of it.  Imo

[Neeners]

Eeee. Not a fan of Eric/Alexander's hair...

[bmoore4026]

Oh....Neil Patrick Harris came alone, I see...............Now, I'm very sad..........

[MostlyC]

If they want to make a statement, I say they should wear black dresses to every award event this year.

[ABay]

I;m looking forward to the second season of a Series of Unfortunate Events. NPH is great as Count Olaf.

Remember color?  Color was nice.

[LilWharveyGal]

Catriona looks like she's in a Latin dance competition.  When she turns around I expect to see a number pinned to her back.

See this is it its just so self indulgent and all their PR people are trying to outdo each other with who can bring a bigger and better activist.

True, but this is still a show and if they wore cotton shift dresses, flat shoes and no make up, no one would watch.  

[ABay]

No matter what any of them do to make a statement, someone's going to say they should've done something else instead.

[VCRTracking]

I read somewhere that Millie Bobby Brown's management are the ones who have her on the red carpet alone and not with the other Stranger Things kids lately. If true, that's a shame.

SJP looks like she's dressed for Hocus Pocus: The Sequel.

[ShadowHunter]

I don't like what SJP is wearing. 

I like Margot Robbie's dress.

[Browncoat]

John Goodman looks GREAT!

Respectfully disagree.  I think everyone would be watching....which is the point of a protest, no?  I would wanna see my fave stars looking like me for a nght!

The woman does not AGE.  Especially when it's her natural hair. 

[Neeners]

John Goodman always seems like someone you'd love to have a beer with and hear some of his stories.

Maybe, however I think most people would watch for five minutes, get bored and turn off the TV.  If I want to see people without make up, I don't need to turn on the TV for that, I can just go to the supermarket.

[Cupcake04]

If the networks insist on doing red carpet coverage can they please please get better red carpet hosts?  OMG they are awful, although better than ABC Oscars hosts, though that is not saying much!

[mtlchick]

Aside: Rose McGowan's "reality show" for E! of all places feels like a horrible joke.  Exactly who thought this was a great pairing?

[Browncoat]

Not  a fan of Penelope Cruz' dress.

[Neeners]

I really need to see Ladybird.

[ShadowHunter]

I don't care for the blonde on Emilia Clarke.

Just me but I wouldn't turn t off and Would make a hell of a statment though woudn't it?  And it wouldnt be soon forgotten!

Agree....I think it will be  train wreck.  Why or why did she say yes?  A & E or Oprahs network would have done her justice.  But the network of the Kartrashians?  No

[Thumper]

Cute to see Eva Longoria pregnant and with a fuller face -- but dress is too tight if I can see the belly button.

[Neeners]

Love, love, love Sterling. And his wife is gorgeous.

[Browncoat]

Giuliana dips her fries in her shake?  Right.  Like she eats fries or shakes.

[mtlchick]

NBC, you had ONE JOB. 

[Cupcake04]

Jessica Biel looks awful.  OMG. 

[magpye29]

Jessica Biel's lip color is heinous!

[Browncoat]

Jessica Biel's dress reminds me of the Gwyneth Paltrow chicken cutlet boob dress from a few years back.  Not a good look.

OMG I am dying. Dead.

[Neurochick]

I noticed that too.  I was wondering if anyone would caption it, bravo mtlchick.

[Annber03]

That is hilarious and pitiful all at the same time. Wow.

[Browncoat]

Well, you know, everyone's wearing black dresses -- it's hard to tell them apart!
