Tonight on NBC at 8 pm: The Golden Globe Awards!


Okay, not to put too fine a point on it, the Golden Globes ceremony is a lot like the Oscars but with booze. The atmosphere is more casual and actually a lot more fun because the nominees have been relaxing with dinner and drinks. There are some who believe the Golden Globes are a good predictor for who will win Academy Awards. Certainly a lot of the nominees are attending the parties for both. Then again, the Globes have separate categories the Oscars don’t bother with, dividing comedies and musicals into separate categories from dramatic movies (or TV shows, also covered y the Golden Globes, meaning the winners may also generate buzz about the Emmy Awards).

I like awards shows, personally, but my husband doesn’t. So it’s always a crap shoot whether I get to watch them. I confess, half of the reason I like them is the gowns. I love how some bloggers even try to predict what people will wear! Or what this year’s red carpet trends will be. The red carpet events have gotten sillier every year, with the personalities doing the “interviewing” getting seemingly more and more vacuous.

I have blogged about awards shows and gowns before. I’ll post about the winners tomorrow, and yes, probably some of the gowns. Why should this year be any different?
