REQUISITE GOLDEN GLOBES POST
01.12.09
Only two velvet jackets? Such restraint. (picture courtesy of JustJared, obviously)
That I searched for Golden Globes pictures and the first thing that popped up was a shot of the Jonas Mannequins should tell you just about all you need to know about this retarded farce. In other news, Katie Holmes is looking really bad these days.
List of winners after the jump, plus, see Demi Moore present Heath Ledger’s Best Supporting Actor award to Chris Nolan. Such a surprise that Ledger won. Took a lot courage to pick him over Tom Cruise in a fatsuit, I bet. Also, if anyone could tell me what the hell’s going on here that’d be great.

Either Pierce Brosnan is a wonderful father for taking his daughter as his date to the Golden Globes, or he lost a bet.
GRRRRR……MORE CUSHION FOR THE PUSHIN’!!!!!
On a serious side note, I think it would be pretty cool if Kate Winslet won the Oscar for Best Leading and Supporting Actress. I mean, at least I’ve seen her boobs, so there’s that.
I can tell you what happened there. Ol’ Zeggy just took a ride on the Winnybango.
I can’t believe “The Wrestler” won and “Kung Fu Panda” lost in its category. Hello? They’re the exact same movie?!!
Except one stars a disgusting, ugly-faced flabby no-talent and Mickey Rourke’s in the other one.
Looks like Pierce is just fulfilling his end of the “Mamma Mia!’s Biggest Fan” contest.

The Jonas Brothers weren’t nominated but they stopped by anyway. They were already all dressed up for the NAMBLA Awards ceremony later that night.
I knew Slumdog was going to win because this fat lady sitting behind me on my flight yesterday said it was “pretty good for one of them foreign movies.” You can’t buy that kind of publicity.
And then she poured her drink in my lap…
Bruce Springsteen’s theme song from The Wrestler is actually just a drawn out version of Gold Dust’s entrance music.
Dustin Rhodes’ best finishing move was nutting on his boyfriend’s chin.
I see Mickey Rourke wore his highly stylized vagina tux with the blue labia collar.
Colin Farrell does a very good Dylan McKay impersonation.
“Hey Renee, is ATM out of the question?”
Did anyone else notice the “ugh, a dead guy won? What’s the point of these awards if we can’t ride on his coattails” vibe when they were showing people’s faces before and after Nolan’s speech?

Katherine Heigl
Jennifer Lopez
What’s with all this hurrah about Heath Ledger and his portrayal of the Joker? It’s like he died or something. Cesar Romero and his stache forever!
The zinger of the night was when they introduced “actress” Jennifer Lopez. That’s a burn!
Great pic of Zellweg’s eyes opened the widest they’ve ever been. Maybe she saw Clint and was surprised that she wasn’t the squintiest person in the room. She makes Gilbert Gottfried look like E.T.
I can’t believe AR Rahman won Best Score … just sounds like pretentious noodling to me.
Also: is Selma Blair a Jonas brother these days?
