Can someone please change the thread title to The Annual Golden Globes?

Actually it already existed, you just found the even older 2014 topic that's now been merged with the existing annual one!

I don't know how I missed the already-labeled "Annual" thread! I thought I looked really carefully at all the threads, & the only 1 I found was the 2014 thread, which was almost at the very end of the forum. So I put my original post there, thinking there wasn't anywhere newer to post. Oh well... since the thread I originally posted in needed to be merged into the "Annual" thread I missed anyway, at least that feat was accomplished. Thanks!

[JustaPerson]

Nominations are out!

[Annber03]

I'm so happy to see Freddie Highmore on the list :D. And I haven't yet seen "GLOW", but as a "Community" fan, it's nice to see cast members from that show having continued success and getting recognition, so congrats to Alison Brie as well. 

Also happy about "Will & Grace" and Eric McCormack, though I wish Megan Mullally had gotten some love as well. She's been especially killing it this season on the show.

Does anyone know if this is airing live in Europe and if so what channel?

[hendersonrocks]

Seth Meyers is on the new Pod Save America talking about hosting the Golden Globes and comedy in the age of Trump. It's the last part of the show, if you just want to listen to his segment!

Time for the Awards season to begin. I have my snacks ready lol.

I am sure we will hear Trump jokes but I hope not that many.

[Chas411]

So frustrating but it's not airing in Europe live. So disappointing.

Anyone know if E! Have the rights to proper red carpet coverage? I hate when they're just up in that box talking about the red carpet and showing the odd picture.

[ShadowHunter]

I wonder if this will be the year Michelle Williams gets the Oscar?

I want to like CZJ's dress but it should be lace all the way. As it is, it looks like she put on a pair of high waisted black briefs and then threw the dress on over it. The lace could've just become less shear as it rounded her body.

Sorry (Or Yay?), There Will Be No Donald Trump Jokes at the Golden Globes This Year

[ABay]

Allison Janney...is that a giant insect? She saw it on her windshield and just couldn't resist?

Debra Messing just called out E! on E! Ha! Love it!

[ABay]

I had to rewind and turn on the sound to find out what happened when Kelly Clarkson was leaving the dias. Like Seacrest, I thought she'd tripped, broke her heel, or had caught her dress on something but she stopped because she saw Meryl Streep. That was adorable. 

[Browncoat]

WTF with Giuliana's hair?

Good on Debra Messing!

[bmoore4026]

I can't get enough of Streep's gown!

That's good!

Its nice seeing all the black.

Gotta give to it Debra Messing calling out E! while being interviewed on E! 

[Chas411]

Kelly Clarkson meeting Meryl was adorable.

[bmoore4026]

Can someone explain to me what I just saw in that Peter Rabbit commercial?

And, I’m sure that the cast of Will & Grace are all making the same money? Doubt it. She’s a hypocrite. She talks about inclusiveness & diversity but wouldn’t think twice about walking over a republican dying of thirst. I’m not even a republican and know that.

[ShadowHunter]

Hello Sterling!

[ABay]

TMI! TMI! TMI!

[Chas411]

A lot of the times up, wearing black stance it's great but it's hard not to see some of it as self indulgent for some. This time next year the majority of people on that carpet will have a new cause to be all righteous about.

That's because people can care about multiple causes--harassment, equality, diversity, poverty, violence, war....etc. Even if they choose to make a statement about something else next year or even next week doesn't mean they don't care about today's cause any longer.

Guy in the middle there, I don't think that word (woke) means what you think it means. Unless it now means looking at celebrities as they exit their limos.

I had the same thought. 

 

ETA: I hope we get a better look at Emma Watson's dress, because from what I saw, just ugh.

I see Michelle Williams didn't bring Busy Phillips with her that surprised me. Just use to seeing them together. 

I said the same thing but I just read on Vulture that apparently a lot of actresses are bringing activists as their dates. The issue of sexual harassment is an important one to acknowledge and discuss but I'm worried for tonight's show. Golden Globes is usually one of the more fun awards show. I don't want it becoming a somber, indignant event!

Yea, I just figured that out lol so I edited my original post ha.

Stranger Things kiddies!  Oh, they're growing up so fast!

And they are showing Clare Foy in that amazing pantsuit!

I have to give it to Giuliana for just rolling with the comment and not being derailed. I have no doubts she had a string of 4 letter words running thru her head though. 

[Chas411]

His impression of Chewbacca is hilarious

She really does look great.  Not loving the hair, but the suit is sharp.

Absolutely... Which is why I said some of it comes across as self indulgent. Not all of it. Some of it. 

[Fostersmom]

Damn Tracee Ellis Ross, you look gorgeous!

The Stranger Things Kids still adorable. 

Don't like the dress Catherine Zeta Jones is wearing. 

[bmoore4026]

Oooo, Tracy Ellis Ross rockin' the Erykah Badu look!

It's a bit night dressy. I think she looks amazing though.

[bmoore4026]

Say what you will about Meryl Streep, but she is the queen of the sexy librarian look.

[ABay]

Chris Hemsworth, accept your handsomeness, don't try to ugly yourself up.

Edited January 7, 2018 by ABay

[UniqBlue69]

I thought they were talking to Jwoww from Jersey Shore and I was so confused on the reason she would be there and then Catherine's named popped up. Damn.. what did she do to her face?!  And she's going to be on a Lifetime tv movie? Ouch! Oscar wins apparently don't amount to much LOL.

[Amethyst]

Well, hello Chris Hemsworth and Taika Waititi.  Looking too yummy.

[ShadowHunter]

Damn, Fifty Shades commercials. 

[bmoore4026]

Oh, Jesus!  Another Fifty Shades movie!?

When Disney remakes Peter Pan, they need to get Michelle Williams for Tinker Bell.  Anyone else would be an insult to Tinker Bell.

I saw a copy of "50 shades from Christian's perspective and/or prequel" at the airport and ran screaming from the bookstore. I truly, fervently hope that doesn't get adapted into a movie.

Fidelio?

Anyway, anyone else see Milo Ventimiglia and just beam with pride over him finally shaking off the yoke of Heroes?

I like that Chrissy Metz doesn't let what people think about her size keep her from looking good.  Keep doing us big people proud, Chrissy!

[ShadowHunter]

I've started switching to NBC they will start doing the interviews soon.
