Golden Globes Afterthoughts

So yesterday was the 2010 Golden Globes. What in the past has generally been one of the more fun awards shows…although in the last few years the Emmys seem to have won that slot.

Overall, I was pretty happy with the results. While I wanted Lea to win, I would have happy with anyone in the best actress in a comedy category, because it was perhaps the toughest group of women I’ve seen in a long time. All 5 were greats, and all people I really liked. So while I haven’t seen United States of Tara, I’m sure Toni Collette is great in it.

While I wanted Matthew Morrison to win, I knew it was a slim chance, same for Jane Lynch…although I thought her chances were higher.

I was really happy Julianna Margulies won for The Good Wife. I’ve always been a fan, and she’s really great in it. It was also a pretty tough category.

I am so glad Glee won. I thought it had the best chance as far as Glee’s nominations. Although I think I would have been reasonably happy if 30 Rock, or Modern Family had won. But Glee is amazing. And yay for MadMen - the only show in that category that I actually watch. But it was pretty predictable though.

I was really happy that Meryl won…I mean her chances were good. And I really loved her in both movies, and she was fantastic in Julie and Julia.

I dunno how I feel about Ricky Gervais’s hosting. He really went a little too far sometimes…but was entertaining. The presenters were ok, so glad to see Lauren Graham presenting, and she looked awesome in that pink dress. Glad to see Jennifer Garner too, and a lot of the others.

However overall, there was something off about the whole thing. I’m not sure if it was the weird red carpet interviews as a result of the rain, or of the gloom of the Haiti issues that brought down the crowd. I mean Meryl was not her usual bubbly, entertaining self…and other people seemed somewhat melancholy. Maybe I was expecting more, but people did not seem to be having as much fun as they normally do at the globes, which are generally the party awards.

As far as fashions go, nothing really stood out for me. I really loved Lauren Graham in the pink number, but she pretty much always looks amazing. Toni Collette’s gold dress was pretty nice. Lea Michele looked really pretty in the black, as did Jane Lynch in the green – she cleans up nice! Lol. Amy Poehler looked nice in the red number. Dianna Agron, Jayma Mays, Drew Barrymore, Sandra Bullock, Julianna Margulies, and Felicity Huffman all looked stunning also.

Not a huge fan of Tina Fey’s dress, but she’s Tina Fey so it doesn’t really matter. Sorry Jen (Garner) but I wasn’t a fan of the dress.

As far as the guys go, they kinda all look the same...but I was a fan of any guy who wore a black tailored tux with a bow-tie!
Best speech, was pretty easy, because they pretty much sucked…but John Lithgow’s was sweet. However the most amusing had to go to Robert Downey Jnr. But nothing really stood out for me.

Most of the presenters were fun. But I am biased, since a lot of them were people I like!!!

So that’s my thoughts. Other stuff might come to me later. Overall I was happy, but not ecstatic…not really sure why.

I just joined this lovely place. Lots of individuals have added so many good things here. Please accept my little contribution towards community. I would like to share some [url=http://www.weightrapidloss.com/lose-10-pounds-in-2-weeks-quick-weight-loss-tips]quick weight loss tips[/url]. If you wish to know how to lose 10 lb in a week, you are likely not seeing for a common dieting and workout plan. You can lose weight with a standard diet and workout plan, However this takes a lot of time doing utmost cardio exercises and sticking to a strict diet. Here I will draft the exact steps that I took to lose 10 pounds in just a workweek.

1. Stay away from all fried nutrients for the week
2. Drink an 8oz glass of grapefruit with breakfast every day. (this speeds up up your metabolism)
3. Take reasonable portions (stop consuming when you are full)
4. Rather than consuming 3 big a meals a day, eat 5-6 smaller meals to keep your metabolism up and keep your body burning fat.
5. Aviod your habbit of eating after 9 P.M.. When you eat that late your body does not burn off the calories.
6. Get plenty of sleep every night. Not getting plenty rest causes been proved to be a leading element to the body storing excess fat.
7. Utilise a body/colon clean for the 7 days. This will get rid of excessive fat stored close to the stomach area as well as cleanse your body of harmfull pollutants that makes you store fat and feel tired. Flush away excess pounds around the stomach area that otherwise would be hard to lose.
8. I reccomend you using Acai Berry Diet Pills. This one is proven to work, and you can get a free trial.
9. For those people who want to burn fat quickly, avoid alcoholic drink.
