Best Unapologetic Tan – Lea Michele

My friend V and I talk all the time about how the key to success is to “not look sideways”. You can’t check out what other people are doing because, even if it’s a path to spectacular success, it’s their path. You’re not them, so don’t compare yourself or try to do what they do. Full Story
Worst Swiss Dot: Rachel Weisz

Look, I don’t want you to think I’m not in favour of change. I love change, and I loved the hint, last night, that the Golden Globes don’t have to be quite as formal all the time as the other shows. Shorter dresses said hello and all. Do you think, though, that this is how we should be going, Weisz? Do you think this is a good example of how to change things up? Miles of see-through Swiss-Dot? Who does this benefit? I mean, I suppose it means you’ve honed your thighs to be the same circumference all the way down, but it doesn’t make it a good look. Full Story
Jodie Foster comes out at the Golden Globes

When does the Cecil B DeMille Award recipient ever take over the Golden Globes? Never, right? It’s the only moment of the show without suspense. The whole room knows, weeks and weeks in advance, who’s getting it. And even if the recipient gives a great speech, it’s rarely great enough to dominate the post-show discussion. Full Story

Check out Bradley Cooper’s face at the 0:58 mark in the video below. He really wanted it, didn’t he? Come. Let’s give him something. Let’s give him the hair. He really did have great hair last night. He’s been fighting with it lately -- click here Full Story
Best Globe GIF: Taylor Swift

Taylor, you give to us so much. You really are so selfless and wonderful. I thought it wasn’t going to be a you night, really. After all, you showed up looking age appropriate in brown/eggplant (Lainey would want me to point out that it was satiny and wrinkled) and your hair was sedate. Full Story
Michelle Dockery had the best time at the Globes

It seemed like it, didn’t it? Every time the camera found her she was laughing. She looked like she was having so much fun. And it was particularly evident because she was seated with Benedict Cumberbatch who seemed to take inspiration from Joaquin Phoenix. No strong feelings either way for the dress. Full Story
Best Globe Win, Bad Dress: Jennifer Lawrence (guest appearance by Marion Cotillard!)

I don’t blame you, dude. I know you’re busy, you have a lot going on, and you have a whole lot of best-dressed lists to land on before February 24th. I don’t want you think I blame you. But what in the holy hell is up with wearing orange dresses on the carpet that haven’t been camera-tested? In photos, the dress comes off as something I can mostly only describe as burnt coral.

Best Globe Date: Daniel Day-Lewis

I mean his date. His date Rebecca Miller. Tommy Lee Jones smiled once last night. It was when Daniel Day-Lewis won. And it was also, I think, the one time Joaquin Phoenix had a pleasant look on his face too. Only DDL, right? DDL is so f-cking good that even when the orchestra starts up with the music intended to make him leave, it ends up working for him like the swell in a scene from a movie when the hero arrives to deliver an impassioned speech to rouse his followers.

Globes Best “Babe”: Hugh Jackman

Why doesn’t it sound cheesy and skeevy when Hugh Jackman says it? When he repeatedly refers to his wife as “babe” up on stage, why is it that he can do this without making us cringe? Oh the power of Hugh Jackman. But before we gush about Hugh Jackman, can we please applaud everyone last night for calling it by its proper name: LES MISERABLES!?! There were hardly any instances of the dreaded “Les Mis”! Please click here Full Story
Worst Globes Mindf-ck: Benedict Cumberbatch

I have heard the name for years. I’ve seen the articles and whatnot. I knew he existed, but I never really paid attention until now, you know? I finally sort of really connected the face to the name for good. I feel like someone is f-cking with me. Like is this a big joke? Did you all get together just to punk me in this particular way? Guys, come on. Full Story
Blush Dresses at the Globes: Amy Adams and Megan Fox
Jason Merritt/ Kevin Winter/ ROBYN BECK/ Getty
Is that what you call it? Blush? So much of it. Too much of it. And strapless. And all of a similar shape. Let’s start with Amy Adams who...I mean Duana and I hated it the minute we saw it. Look at the bottom. It’s sh-tting tulle. The dress is SH-ITTING tulle. Here it comes, you ready? It’s sh-tting tulle because. Full Story
Globes Most Unbelievable: Claire Danes
Jason Merritt/ FREDERIC J. BROWN/ Handout/ Getty
One month ago today – Monday – is when she had the baby. A BABY. She was completely and totally pregnant (and striding around Toronto, I thought he was going to be Canadian) and then this is the result a week later. I mean, I don’t know what to say except that’s genetics and discipline and commitment to your goals, and this happens sometimes. Full Story
Best Globes Colour: Jessica Alba

Just the colour. Only the colour. Really great colour. The dress I could do without; it’s a Dior and I’m not sure why Dior failed so miserably last night (see also upcoming Jennifer Lawrence and Marion Cotillard). Also the goddamn fishtail. And ...is that a muppet or a clutch? Put Jessica Alba in the category too of people who were there but we don’t know why they were there. Full Story
Most Attentive – Connie Britton
Jason Merritt/ Alexandra Wyman/ Getty
I think it is fair to say the director made some weird choices last night. Not just failing to shoot Ben Affleck when Jennifer Lopez talked or not giving me a picture-in-picture of Taylor Swift the whole time Adele was talking. I mean, did you see how many shots there were of Jack Black? But I can’t get too mad at the director because of all the shots we saw of Connie Britton. Full Story
