Did you even tune in for the Golden Globes Sunday night?  As for me, I love watching for the red carpet fashions & the impromptu acceptance speeches that get really juicy when the stars have a few drinks in them. :)

There was no red carpet, no buzz, certainly no stars, just media.  As a member of the media, I love my fellow journalists, but what makes an awards show so special, is catching a glimpse of & interviewing our favorite stars! 

It felt really strange entering the International Ballroom at the Beverly Hilton on Golden Globes night.  Normally, that's where the stars celebrate & we aren't even allowed in there.

Instead, it was just us, some small but beautiful centerpieces & a nice spread of cheese, fruit & sodas.  It was funny, because we filmed some footage of a bartender pouring champagne, who said they were charging $6 a glass for the Moet & Chandon. Thank you very much.  I'd love to see them try and pull a no-host bar on the celebs. :)

Anyway, I really enjoyed Kathy Griffin's pre-show commentary.  That was the highlight of my Golden Globes night.

I'll quote a Hollywood Foreign Press member, who told me: "Hopefully this never happens again!"
