2013-01-14_1006The 70th Golden Globe Awards are underway the Beverly Hilton Hotel, and hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are bringing in the laughs.

Amongst some of their first one-liners.

“Meryl Streep is not here tonight. She has the flu, and I heard she’s amaaaazing in it.”

“When it comes to torture, I trust the lady who was married to James Cameron for 3 years…”

Cecil B. De Mille Award, honoring a lifetime achievement:
Jodie Foster (with a speech that seemed to baffle everybody)

  1. Yes Jodie Foster’s speech at the start mainly was bit stilted, and all over the place but it did get better perhaps the occasion and nerves got the better of her.

    She is very private person so for her to have her sons there was a big moment I did like how she paid tribute to her mother who has dementia and the comment “Now, every celebrity is expected to honour the details of their private life with a press conference, a fragrance and a primetime reality show.”

    An award richly deserved for a wonderful actor,producer and director with an amazing body of work.

  2. Homeland????…….the first season was good but i spent most of my time this year with my finger on the fast forward button, waiting for something to happen.Not to mention the mind numbing daughter storyline?

  3. Looking at some of the Twitter feeds, a local FTA network could do worse than to pick this up and screen a really slick edited version. Carry all the film awards and exclude anything that isn’t on Australian FTA. It would have to rate better than some offerings, surely?

  4. House of Lies is a terrible show, Kristen Bell and Don Cheadle are the only good things about it.

    Homeland is a deserving winner. Odd that Girls beat out Modern Family in the Best Comedy category

  5. Great to see Homeland and it’s stars getting praise, but I think The Newsroom was more worthy. Don Cheadle is brilliant in Hou$e of Lie$ and definitely derves it. Thanks ONE for showing the entire first season without editing it down to half an hour (with it being 30 minute episodes that take up 45 minutes of on air time including ads). Hopefully season 2 isn’t too far off.
