Quick Golden Globe Recap

LOVED the Golden Globes last night. I thought Slumdog Millionaire would win big and it sure did. If you haven't seen it, you really must. It's such a great movie! I am in love with it's leading lady, Freida Pinto. She's absolutely gorgeous and I can't even imagine the fabulous things a good stylist could do with her.

I was surprised Kate Winslet won for Best Supporting AND Best Actress. I was even more suprised by how annoying I found her acceptance speeches. However, I've seen both The Reader and Revolutionary Road and she was fantastic in them. She looked great, too.

Another big winner last night was Tina Fey. I thought her acceptance speech for Best Actress in a TV Comedy was hilarious. However, what wasn't very funny was her awful dress and hair! WTF?! She looked so gorgeous at The Emmy's, but last night's look just didn't hit the mark for me.

One of my favorite looks of the night was former Marilyn Manson girlfriend, The Wrestler's Evan Rachel Wood. I LOVE this dress and I thought she looked stunning in it.

Had Drew Barrymore not sported this ASSY hair I would have ranked her at the top of my list. I love her dress, but the hair is unforgivable.

I'm not a big Eva Longoria fan but I thought she looked really pretty last night. The dress was great on her and I liked the softness of her make-up. She looked really young, fresh and pretty, I thought.

My husband couldn't get over how great Laura Linney and Demi Moore looked! I love how he has a thing for women in their 40's. I'm only 34, as you all know, but it's good to know my husband has a thing for cougars when my time comes.

I always think Eva Mendes looks great but I especially LOVED her necklace last night.

Poor Brad & Angelina were ignored when it came to awards - but at least Brad looked great! Can't say the same for Angelina. What a boring dress and awful hair! It's a pity when one of the most beautiful women in the world can't pull it together for a big show like this. I think her look is disappointing.

Finally, this isn't a great picture - but I LOVED Olivia Wilde's dress last night. I wish she had done more with her hair but the dress dazzled.

I'd love to hear your favorites of the night! More later -

PS. I know he's an awful a$$hole, but YAY Mickey Rourke. And RIP Heath Ledger. His award was well-deserved.

Drew looked awful to me. Her hair was bad and even worse when she was up on stage presenting. It just ruined her whole look for me.

Rumer Willis looked great to me. Her dress wasn't one of my favs but she looked really pretty though. Of course Demi was gorgeous.

I'm not a Kate Winslet fan but her dress was really pretty.

I hated Renee Zellweger's dress was awful but I thought her hair was nice.

Cameron's dress looked like Pepto gone bad to me.

Maggie Gyllenhaal looked pretty but that dress was horrible.

Eva Longoria looked really pretty. Like you said Nikki, young and fresh.

Beyonce looked really pretty but didn't like the dress.

I really liked Kyra Sedgwick's dress (the belt didn't do much for me but the rest of it was great) and she looked nice.

That's all I can remember for now.

I guess Eva Longoria was definitely going for the hey look, I'm NOT pregnant look. No hiding a bump in that dress. She looked great.
I agree on Angie! Hello of all nights to not pull it together. Big mistake!

Thank goodness no one was smoking near Drew, she would have gone up in flames with all that hairspray!

I just have to add that I want to stick toothpicks in Renee Z's eyes! Why the heck can't she keep them open when she speaks. She looked AWFUL. I'm just not a fan - so I will find fault with her always... so I'm glad you thought she looked awful too last night!

So happy for Heath. Such a bittersweet moment!

What did you think about Demi's comment to Rumer, "Don't hunch!"? I'm not a Rumer fan, but I wanted to die for the girl. I thought it was a terrible thing for Demi to say in front of the world. Was she trying to be funny?

I think she was just trying to be funny. I thought Rumer looked GREAT! She's much prettier when you see her on camera vs. in pictures, don't you think?

I was amazed at how good Rumor looked! Demi looked great too and part of me laughed when she made that comment but yea, if I was Rumor I probably would have died. I know people have been hating on Miley's dress but I sort of liked it and I thought she looked pretty. I don't like her but for I didn't think she deserved the worst dressed label she was getting on other sites. Drew, OMG. The dress is awesome but really, it looks like complete trailor trash hair.

Mickey Rourke was great in The Wrestler, maybe too good... i guess that's why he deserves the Golden Globe
