<p>Christian Bale wins the first award of the night for The Fighter.</p>
<p>Katey Sagal wins Best Actress for Sons of Anarchy, beating out Julianna Margulies, Kyra Sedgwick,Piper Perabo (Covert Affairs) and a Mad Men&#8217;s Elizabeth Moss. Was that an upset? This may be Mad Men&#8217;s last season, as the creator&#8217;s contract expired today. No word of renewal. </p>
<p>Carlos wins for best miniseries or tv movie.</p>
<p>Michael Douglas will present Best Picture, and Robert DeNiro is getting the special lifetime achievement award.</p>
<p>Bruce Willis is introduced as Ashton Kutcher&#8217;s dad. He introduces &#8220;Red&#8221; a movie about the CIA nominated for Best Comedy. The kid from Glee wins best supporting actor in a comedy.</p>
<p>Michelle Pfeiffer looks beautiful and she introduces Alice in Wonderland, as the camera flashes on Johnny Depp. He&#8217;ll win for something tonight.</p>
<p><img src="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk453/TalkLeft/GoldenGlobes%202011/johnnydepp.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>This is such a fast show. It&#8217;s 6:40 pm and it seems most of the awards have been given out. I wonder how they will stretch it out till 9:00 pm.</p>
<p>Best Song: Alan Mencken is still writing songs? He has one of the nominees. I went to elementary school with him. I wonder if I&#8217;d recognize him. Diane Warren wins for Burlesque.</p>
<p>I think Ricky Gervais is boring. Is he ad-libbing his jokes? Robert Downey Junior looks very handsome and happy. I&#8217;m glad for him, he had a rough road for a while. <span id="more-1792"></span></p>
<p>Best original score goes to The Social Network.</p>
<p>Steve Buscemi wins best actor for Boardwalk Empire. Best TV Drama show: Boardwalk Empire. I didn&#8217;t think the show lived up to the hype, guess I was wrong.</p>
<p>Looks like despite the critics&#8217; praise, The Good Wife isn&#8217;t getting awards this year.</p>
<p>Annette Bening wins Best actress for &#8220;the Kids are Alright.&#8221; She&#8217;s very classy and has such a pretty face, but I don&#8217;t get her hair. (She looks like she just got out of bed with Al Pacino who has the same distressed hair.) It was nice to see Warren Beatty&#8217;s smile when she thanked him.</p>
<p>Al Pacino wins Best Actor for You Don&#8217;t Know Jack. Clair Danes wins for Temple Grandin. HBO is wiping out the competition tonight. Is it their willingness to take on risky subject matter or their promotional budget?</p>
<p>Jane Fonda looks terrific. But I&#8217;m losing interest in the show. It&#8217;s been an assembly-line production with very little personality. Even the woman in black who just won and gave a very spirited thank you, to her mother who is from Southern California, her mother&#8217;s mother who is from Southern California, and her ancestor before that, also from Southern California, failed to wake Kyra Sedgewick up &#8212; she&#8217;s practically asleep leaning on her husband, Kevin Bacon.</p>
<p>DeNiro&#8217;s acceptance of his lifetime achievement award is up next. I may not make it to see Johnny Depp win.</p>
<p>Redemption: The montage of Robert DeNiro clips was outstanding. His acceptance speech included some substance: There would be more foreign press here if they hadn&#8217;t been deported; same for the waiters; and Homeland Security is busy doing TSA images of Megan Fox. And a lot of humor. What a great actor.</p>
<p>Social Network wins for Best Director. And Paul Giamatti beats Johnny Depp, who was nominated for both The Tourist and Alice in Wonderland. Other losers in the category: Kevin Spacey and Jake Gyllenhaal. Bizarre choice. And why was Angelina Jolie nominated for The Tourist in the comedy category?</p>
<p>What happened to Ricky Gervais? Did they yank him? He&#8217;s been MIA for a significant amount of time.</p>
<p>Natalie Portman wins for Black Swan. Not unexpected. She looks so pretty.</p>
<p>Gervais is back. Reading from cue cards. Tom Hanks is up, and now Tom Hanks and his co-presenter Tin Allen are bashing Gervais.</p>
<p>Best picture, comedy or musical: The Kids Are Alright scores it. Once again, why is TheTourist in this category?</p>
<p>Best actor drama: Sandra Bullock presents. Colin Firth wins for The King&#8217;s Speech. His speech is rambling and too long.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s left? The Black Swan vs. Social Network? Michael Douglas is presenting the award which goes to&#8230;The Social Network.</p>
<p>Everybody leaves, and Gervais comes back to thank everyone. Then he says &#8220;Thank G-d..for making me an atheist.&#8221; Huh? What a non-sequitur. No one&#8217;s listening to him, they&#8217;re all walking out.</p>
<p>Hope for next year: A different host. </p>

<p>Michael Douglas <a href="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk453/TalkLeft/GoldenGlobes%202011/michaeldouglas.jpg">looks really good</a> and said he found out last week the tumor is gone, he&#39;s cancer free. Catherine Zeta Jones <a href="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk453/TalkLeft/GoldenGlobes%202011/zetajones.jpg">looks great</a>. </p>
<p>Angelina is <a href="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk453/TalkLeft/GoldenGlobes%202011/angelina.jpg">gorgeous is a green Versace</a>. Love it. Lots of dark green tonight.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk453/TalkLeft/GoldenGlobes%202011/evalongoria.jpg">Eva Longoria </a></li>
<li> <a href="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk453/TalkLeft/GoldenGlobes%202011/nicole3.jpg">Nicole Kidman</a>
<li><a href="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk453/TalkLeft/GoldenGlobes%202011/natalie2-1.jpg">Natalie Portman</a> (with baby bump)</li>

</ul>
<p>[ More...]</p>
<p>Halle Berry looks beautiful but I didn&#39;t like the bottom of her Nina Ricci dress.</p>
<p>The worst: Not sure of their names but <a href="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk453/TalkLeft/GoldenGlobes%202011/mismatch2.jpg">these two </a>were a <a href="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk453/TalkLeft/GoldenGlobes%202011/mismatch.jpg">disaster</a> (down to the different colored shoes.) Another miss: <a href="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk453/TalkLeft/GoldenGlobes%202011/januaryjones.jpg">January Jones</a> and <a href="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk453/TalkLeft/GoldenGlobes%202011/aguillera.jpg">Christina Aguillera</a>.</p>
<p>Tina Fey and <a href="http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk453/TalkLeft/GoldenGlobes%202011/magulies.jpg">Julianna Margulies</a> look very pale and tired. Don&#39;t like Tina&#39;s dress. Ann Hathaway&#39;s sequiny Armani dress wasn&#39;t my favorite.  Jennifer Lopez&#39;s angel look misfires and she looks very bottom-heavy. </p>
<p>Megan Fox&#39;s Armani Prive is beautiful.</p>
