This might take a few weeks

On Friday, Claire Danes and Leonardo DiCaprio both attended the AFI gala. I found a photo of them together. And, obviously, my immediate association was Romeo & Juliet. Only one of my all time favourite movies. Click here Full Story
GG Worst Dressed: Natalie Portman

No imagination. No creativity. I don’t care that it was Lanvin. Go to a mid-range department store right now, head for the evening wear section and you’ll find this dress in various shades of peach and mahogany, definitely black, and most certainly red. Maybe not such an full shade of red, but it’s not really that pronounced of a difference. Full Story
GG Best Man: Idris Elba

I’ve already mentioned that Luther is my jam. You need to get on that if you haven’t already. There are a few shows that I can’t talk about too much because...corny as it is to say... my feelings for them are so intense, I still want to keep them private, like a secret relationship. Roll your eyes, I deserve it. Full Story
GG Duana’s Best Dressed: Laura Dern

This green dress really moved me onscreen, but in the still pictures, it’s less dynamic. Maybe that’s the point of sequins, that they have to be seen in motion to really kick you in the eyeballs. It’s an interesting dress – both super-sexy and a little bit austere. Full Story
Lainey’s GG Best Dressed: Nicole Kidman

Put Nicole in a room with Madonna (and Jessica Lange) every time and her face actually starts to move. Even Third Lip wasn’t so third lippy last night. But that Versace was her best in a long, long time.You know why? It gave her an hourglass. Nicole is a lean woman. And somehow this dress created so much shape. Full Story
GG Fontrum: Madonna
Wenn, Frazer Harrison/Jason Merritt/Robyn Beck/Getty
I grew up in the 80s. Madonna was my guardian angel, my camp counsellor, my ways and my means. What I’m trying to say is that I will always want to side with Madonna. She’s connected to my youth. And those inclinations, formed in adolescence, attached to teen memory, are almost impossible to corrupt. Full Story
GG Third Saggy Breast: Jessica Biel

Shelfy did not wear her engagement ring at any of the Globe events this weekend. Instead, she decided on a prairie wedding gown with a third saggy tit, right above the waist, I dunno, just to make sure you know JT wants to marry her. In this?She’s not enough for this, you know what I mean?Like, the woman who wears this dress has to be really, really special. Full Story
GG Best Hair: Angelina Jolie

An easy knot like this is so underrated. And it doesn’t need to look like this. Angelina’s isn’t perfect, and this is a good thing. It could have very well been swept off off her face and neck, looped around an elastic a few times, and done. If you have long hair, like, me, this takes all of 10 seconds. Full Story
GG Worst Hair & Forever $400: Stacy Keibler
Wenn, Frazer Harrison/Jason Merritt/Getty
Nothing says small town to me more than poor hairstyling, where the “rules” of fashion and appearance have never been updated, one of which dictates that fancy parties require curls or updos. Making it exciting is taking it only half way up. This is what Stacy Keibler gave us last night. And just as we were starting to make progress - see here Full Story
GG Worst Happy Face: Claire Danes
Frazer Harrison/Jason Merritt/Getty
Behold, a thesis in two parts: Point the first – the physical. Danes and I are of a similar age. But…flatter myself, sure...I think she looks SO much older than me. Part of that can be attributed to the razor-thin demands that we know in Hollywood – the body-or-face choice comes early. Full Story
Golden Globe Almost: Michelle Williams
Wenn, Frazer Harrison/Jason Merritt/Getty
She was just about to be my Best of the night. Just about. Even with the headband that Duana and Sarah considered twee. But I thought it was beautifully accented with that dress. God, that amazing dress.And then...She opened with the kid.Right off the top of the speech, it was Natalie Portman 2012. Babies and motherhood, mothers and daughters. Full Story
GG Worst Bow At The Hip: Charlize Theron
Wenn, Jason Merritt/Handout/Frazer Harrison/Getty
Jessica Biel did it in Prada at the Oscars in 2009. Like a handkerchief at the chest. Click here for refresher. This is, of course, Charlize Theron. Who always favours a bow. And hers is at the hip. So, obviously, it’s not quite as dumbass as Biel’s attempt at impressing Anna Wintour. Full Story
GG Best Improv/Worst Cowgirl: Meryl Streep
Frazer Harrison/Jason Merritt/Handout/Getty
Lainey called me out last night, and she was right, for pussy footing around the fact that The Iron Lady suuuuucked. I mean, not just a little bit. That movie was really, really bad …but you got so distracted by Meryl. There was a moment in the movie where she communicated with her face “well, I could, not that he would care anyway, but what’s a mother to do, these days? That’s my lot in life”. Full Story
GG Worst Red: Reese Witherspoon
Wenn, Frazer Harrison/Jason Merritt/Getty
I suppose she was trying for Jessica Rabbit: Reese Witherspoon with the bedhead and some curves. It may have worked better if the dress wasn’t so...poorly constructed. She’s drowning in it. Now I know I’m on automatic hate when it comes to taffeta and, as such, it may not be fair, my immediate aversion to her Zac Posen, but you have to admit, it’s messy across the chest. Full Story
