After watching the Golden Globes last night, I have come to one conclusion: if I could be anyone in the entire world, I would be Dianna Agron from Glee. Not only is she stunningly gorgeous, but she seems sweet, genuine, and totally normal. Oh, and let’s not forget about her voice!
The main reason I watch these award shows is the fashion. I love to see all of the bags, shoes, and gowns that go down the red carpet, regardless of whether they will enter the fashion hall of fame or fall dismally into fashion hell. Some of my favorites last night were, as previously mentioned, Dianna Agron, Olivia Wilde, Lea Michele (even if she looked like a birthday ribbon), Carrie Underwood…

I could go on forever, but enough with my fashion obsession. Let’s briefly talk about the winners.
Chris Colfer won Best Supporting Actor in a Series, Mini-Series, or TV Movie for his role as Kurt Hummel on Glee. His acceptance speech brought tears to my eyes (make fun all you want) – he was so humble, shocked, and endearing. Made me love him and Glee even more than I already do! (Jane Lynch also won Best Supporting Actress in this category for her role as Sue Sylvester, and the series won for Best TV Series – Comedy or Musical!)
The Social Network won several awards, beating out films I thought were more deserving. However, I hate to say that I have yet to see the movie. It IS at the top of my Netflix queue though, so as soon as it becomes available, I will fix this problem. As a twenty-something AND a graduate student studying communication, I am fully immersed in social media and its uses. I could not get through my day without some form of social media. I definitely am excited to watch the Hollywood version of Facebook’s creation.
Natalie Portman won Best Actress for her role in Black Swan. I did see that movie and it was incredible! Her speech...wasn't. Earlier on the red carpet, she said she hated praise and congratulations, so I understand maybe being nervous or just plowing through. The only redeeming factor I saw in her speech was her adorable baby bump and glowing smile when she mentioned grandmother, parents, and fiance.
Side note – how impossible was it for the award winners to get up on stage?? It seems to me that instead of cramming 300+ stars into a tiny ballroom you would just get a bigger room! It’s not like you people don’t have money or anything…
Overall, the Golden Globes were a very successful night, both fashion and awards-wise. What's the next awards show again?
