It’s that time of the year again: when the Hollywood elite gets all shickered (Yiddish for drunk) and friendly.  Yes, it’s the Golden Globes.
Funny ladies Tina Fey and Amy Poehler teamed up to host the show and certainly did not disappoint.  Their opening speech was on point and definitely had some laugh-out-loud moments.

Here are some note-worthy moments (in no particular order):

Anne Hathaway, in true obnoxious fashion, did her best: I’m-so-shocked-I-won-but-I-clearly-wrote-a-speech-and-memorized-it-and-dedicated-half-of-it-to-Sally-Field. UGH.  She is officially the worst; and as if her overly wordy speech wasn’t enough, she decided to use the time allotted to the winner of the “Best Picture in a Comedy or Musical” category (which Les Misérables won) to continue her speech. WTF? #Makeitstop

Lena Dunham obviously felt competitive with Ms. Hathaway as her first acceptance speech was full of big words and wittiness; although that wittiness made her likable and set Tina and Amy up for a funny joke afterward.  Actually, the most curious part of Lena Dunham’s night, was the fact that she cannot walk in a pair of heels; and she confirmed in an Instagram photo today that she was indeed wearing very, very tall Christian Louboutins.

I can’t really go much farther into this posting without addressing the two elephants in the room: Jodie Foster and Mel Gibson.  They are the people who are about 20 years late to the prom.   I found it a bit presumptuous for Jodie to assume that we have all been dwelling and wondering if she would ever officially come out.

Her announcing (well more insinuating) that she’s gay was about as shocking as when Anderson Cooper came out: DUH!  What was more shocking was her twisted shout out to Mel Gibson (his flummoxed look aside) who, in my opinion, should be ban from all Hollywood events.

Bill Clinton arrived to introduce Spielberg’s “Lincoln” where only in Hollywood can Clinton get a standing ovation.

Ben Affleck was able to relish in two wins last night for “Argo:” seeing that he was snubbed in the directing category for the Oscars.

Lastly, Julia Roberts presented the last award in a chic plunging neckline jumpsuit: a hot trend for 2013.
