Bwah! She certainly was excited. Or cold. You do know her mom is Jayne Mansfield, right? Mariska and her siblings were also in the car accident that killed Jayne. Mariska was only 3.

I liked it! Very Stevie looking! But Joan and Melissa called it a scary, Vampira look.

I like the Golden Globes more than the Oscars...Some of my fave moments:

Jamie Foxx's acceptance speech

Teri Hatcher's acceptance speech

Robin Williams' acceptance speech (loved the comment toward Christopher Reeve, made me get all verklempt)

Okay, Star Jones looked like a packed sausage. NOT a flattering dress for her figure.

All the DHs looked good, but I wasn't crazy about Eva's spray-on tan - too dark.

Teri's dress looked gorgeous on her, I liked it more from the butt up, too busy on the bottom with all the doily cut-out stuff. It was silver, but looked kinda greenish to me on the red carpet, silver on stage. One of the entertainment show people even called it a light blue. But it was really silver, I believe.

There really wasn't one outfit this year that made me gasp, "OMG, WHAT is she wearing?" I would have made a few makeup and hair adjustments (Laura Linney's eyes - yuck, and every woman with that bed head look - Nicole and Uma).

I missed Lisa Marie (must have been on while I was watching Housewives.)

I thought all the Housewives looked great except Eva - HATED that hideous homecoming/prom cocktail dress. Yuck. Teri & Felicity were my top 2. Teri's dress was sensational, hair & makeup were perfect. Nicolette actually did not look like a man, which was a pleasant surprise.

Star is a moron. She askes everyone the same crap, they all still say "oooooh congratulations!" to her like she's the only person in the world to get married. Can't believe she's a lawyer (I did hear that once, didn't I?) Joan & Melissa are sometimes rude, but hilarious & catty. Love it. Kathy Griffin was really funny I thought.

I didn't think anyone dressed that badly last night, which is a little odd. There's usually quite a few train wrecks to laugh at. Of course, I did miss Lisa Marie and Mekhi (although, Melissa Rivers said she liked Mekhi the next day.) Nicole Kidman wore an incredible color, but I wasn't crazy about the peacock feather.

And Lux - I agree, awards shows are pointless & frivolous. Too bad. I love them. Lighten up. Who cares.

As an American, I'm aware that my country is at war & there's terrible suffering in the world. Awards shows & movie stars don't piss me off nearly as much as the fact that our President is having a lavish inauguration this week complete with steak dinner for 25,000 people.

Who's buyin?

I think we all are, unfortunately.

I guess something good CAN come out of awards shows in Hollywood:

Yes!! He is awesome! Have you seen American Splendor? It's easily in my top ten favorite movies.

I do now. Woa. I never would have put those two together on a family tree.
They look nothing alike.

Here's Miss Crow and Deborah from a few years ago. Not as similar as I remember it, but still pretty weird:

It's similar enough. I think I like Debbie's punkrock outfit more.

But the mink with it's head and feet still attached? Tacky.

Poor animal died for that outfit?

Do you honestly think that's a real fur?

Yeah. It was VH-1. PETA was pissed.

I took notes on the Joan & Melissa Fashion Wrap show that was on the TV Guide Channel - for Brucie, whose local Time/Warner in San Antonio effed up and didn't carry it. I just sent him an email and thought I'd copy and paste it here for the other Joan/Melissa and Leon Hall lovin' fashionistas! I'd forgotten about Diane Krueger in my earlier post - can someone please tell me who she is?!?

Joan said, "I have good news and bad news - the good news - Brad and Jennifer are watching the show - the bad news - from separate houses."

Leon summed it all up: Color, chiffon, Grecian Goddess, (pale, pink) satin

(they agreed on all "hated" or "loved" comments, unless otherwise noted - MR is Melissa Rivers, JR is Joan Rivers and LH is Leon Hall)

Joely Richardson - loved

Claire Danes - LH: Should've pulled back her hair, loved colors - JR: hated, said it looked like a Cirque de Soleil costume

Portia de Rossi - loved

Cate Blanchett-LH: loved - MR and JR did not - JR said she looked like the mother of the bride

Johnny Depp - JR: Pimp! You wanted to hand him $20 for the woman next to him

Nicole Kidman-loved

Halley Berry-JR didn't like top of dress, said it looked like one of her boobs was bandaged

Kate Hudson-loved

Uma - not crazy about it, but all agreed improvement since the Oscars

Natalie Portman-thrift shop, bad flapper costume

Mick Jagger- JR: Jerry Hall is lucky she got away, he looks frightening

Lisa Marie Presley - Frightening - Vampira looking (I'm glad they didn't make a Stevie reference)

Diane Keaton and Goldie Hawn - they showed a pic of them together, but only commented on Goldie ? - loved - said she always wears the same type of dress, but knows what works for her

Naomi Watts-loved

Nicolette Sheridan-surpisingly conservative for her, loved

Scarlett Johanssen - most sought after by all the designers now - cuz she has that Marilyn Monroe look. JR said she looked TOO 1950's

Diane Krueger (I have no idea who this chick is, but she presented also - her dress was horrid - probably the only one all night I was wondering, wtf??) -hated - Circus Circus costume - LH said she looked like Miss Gay America New Orleans

Paula Abdul - hated

Megan Mulalley (sp?) - wrong!

Debra Messing-loved

Christine Lahti-loved

Dylan Walsh-loved

Laura Linney-loved - classic - (but someone on another show said her eyes looked too goth, and WE agreed!)

Leonardo - loved - said he's trying hard to look grown-up, we should all be so lucky!

Jamie Foxx-works for him - JR didn't like it

Hillary Swank-loved, brown is IN-LH said she was perfect

Deborah Mazar-LH said she looked like Bowie in drag

Raquel Welch-loved-every man's fantasy for 78 years

Wyclef Jean-music person, took a risk, but they loved

David Carradine-hated the bolo tie

Usher-love a man who wears diamonds-JR didn't like the open shirt - looks like he's saying, "Meet in Malibu for a cookout."

Eva Longoria-pretty, sexy

Orlando Bloom-handsome

Mischa Barton-spectacular

Emmi - whatever her last name is, Phantom of the Opera (and you live in dark shadows) chick - loved

Felicity Huffman and William H. Macy - loved

Liam and Natasha- classic

Mike Nichols and Diane Sawyer-loved - Hollywood royalty!

Kevin Kline and Phoebe Cates-loved - she still looks like 18!

Ashley Judd and her bf-loved

Arnold and Maria-loved- Mr. and Mrs. California

Worst dressed men:

MR: Johnny Depp
LH: Wyclef Jean
JR: Mick

Worst dressed women:

MR: Diane Krueger
LH: Diane Krueger (ugly!)
JR:Lisa Maria Presley - she looked like a force-fed Cruella De Ville

Best men:

MR: Mekhai Pfeiffer
LH: Thomas Hayden Church
JR: Morgan Freeman

Best women:

MR: Teri Hatcher
LH: Phantom chick
JR: Eva Longoria

Then P Diddy jumped on stage and he said Teri Hatcher was best dressed woman.

I disagree, I liked his look, and he's been very funny in the press room (there are videos on the Golden Globes site ). Now I'm curious to listen to his and Dave Stewart's song in Alfie remake... probably the only good reason to watch the movie.

She stole's Imelda Staunton's Golden Globe, but since she's a brilliant actress I forgave her . And her dress was great.
