If I’m not here tomorrow it’s because I’ve been taken out by the Little Monsters. Please know I LOVED Lady Gaga in A Star is Born, more than Bradley Cooper, actually. I just can’t get behind Lady Gaga at the Golden Globes, dress and all.

By now we all know that Lady Gaga’s dress was a tribute to…

Look, can we not have this get ugly? I’m sorry, okay?! I was nervous enough writing that name at the top of the page – I like Emily Blunt, I think she’s selling the hell out of Mary Poppins Returns, and this dress on someone else might have been a showstopper.

But you know it isn’t. It’s Alexan…

This hurts. I don’t want to do this. Gina Rodríguez is slowly starting to suffer from the Jameela Jamil condition of being charming and wonderful on television and well-meaning but grating in person. To put it simply, they both say dumb sh-t sometimes. So, Gina Rodriquez might not be your thing. I g…

Seriously. That’s how Idris Elba and Taylor Swift were introduced at the Golden Globes last night – as co-stars of the upcoming Cats. Again and again, what even is this movie? At some point, in some scene, are Idris and Taylor going to start, like, purring at each other? He was actually asked about …

In 2017 and 2018, the winners of the Cecil B. DeMille Lifetime Achievement were Meryl Streep and Oprah Winfrey. Both women used their moments to make timely political statements in well-thought-out, coherent arguments. The winner of the 2019 DeMille Award did not follow the same pattern. Jeff Bridges got on stage and he just… I mean, The Big Lebowski is a great movie. It’s a cult classic, or simply a classic. Jeff Bridges is brilliant in it. OR IS HE? Maybe Jeff Bridges really IS The Dude.

The question is… how high was Jeff? Or was he drunk? Or was he buzzed on weed AND white Russians? Did Jeff and Chris “Sexual Napalm” Pine smoke a joint in the bathroom or nah? The trim-tab conversation is… something. “Tag, you’re it” is some kind of Golden Globes speech.

Seems especially fitting to honor Jeff Bridges at a time when everyone’s talking about white Russians. #GoldenGlobes

I’m realizing, as I watch this, that Jeff Bridges maybe wasn’t really *acting* in Big Lebowski?

Do you think Jeff Bridges is in all those westerns because he’s always out in the desert smoking weed and shooting guns at stuff, and it’s easier to cast him than to film around him?

Lainey has crowned Timothee Chalamet and Lily-Rose Depp as the reigning It Couple of Young Hollywood. I’m not trying to mess with that. I’m OK with Saoirse Ronan and Timothee Chalamet just being best friends forever. They worked together on Lady Bird, of course, and now they’re starring in the new L…

Patricia Clarkson won Supporting Actress in a Drama for Sharp Objects. That’s a show which I’ve heard many good things about, but which none of us are watching yet. (I really feel behind this awards season!) She’s getting accolades for one line during her speech, when she addressed director Jean-Marc Vallée and said “you demanded everything from me except sex, which is exactly how it should be in our industry.” That’s rather blunt, but she’s probably speaking from experience dealing with some really awful men. I can’t imagine. Amy Adams looked kind of shocked after that, but she kept smiling. You can see the speech below.

As for Patricia’s gown, she was in red-orange Georges Chakra. This dress design has been popular the last couple of years and that’s because it works. It’s very old Hollywood with some modern touches, like two trailing lines of fabric along the back in a contrasting bright pink.

Here’s Patricia’s speech.

Thandie Newton was also nominated for Best Supporting Actress, for her sublime work in Westworld, the show that got super confusing. She was in a white cutout Michael Kors gown with mirror sequins. I really like this, it’s so cool that the dress picks up the surrounding colors.

Did you know that she’s been been married to British director Ol Parker since 1998? They have three children together: daughters Ripley, 18, Nico, 14, and son Booker, just four! Thandie posted a cute photo with Ol. I just learned that Ol wrote and directed Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again. I like him so much now, that film was delightful.

Presenter Gina Rodriguez was in Reem Acra. This dress photographs worse than it looked on camera. It has like a built-in necklace bead and sequin design that drags her cleavage down, but I didn’t notice it during the show.

Look at how hot she is with her fiance, Joe LoCicero. They are so cute together!

Nominee Melissa McCarthy was in Reem Acra too, in a deep purple gown with large stars along the side. I would like this if it wasn’t for the long ruffled sleeves. I feel like sleeves shouldn’t be that complicated. This is a nice holiday gown. There were a lot of looks last night which reminded me of the holidays. I wish we had more Christmas to look forward to.

It felt like Emily Blunt was coming into the awards season with a lot of late-surging momentum, and like she might be a surprise winner last night. She was not. It was weird. Her fashion choice was weird too – she wore this Alexander McQueen dress (she was, I believe, the only person the House of McQueen dressed for the Globes) and while the dress is intricately constructed and interesting, it also felt kind of “off” for the Globes. Like, she was trying to dress like she would surprise-win but also, the dress didn’t do much on-camera or in motion? I’m overthinking this, I know. That’s what Emily did too – she overthought it.

People were calling Nicole Kidman’s Michael Kors gown her Dom Look and once you see it, you can’t unsee it. What strikes me is that Nicole fifty f–king one years old and she still has a body like a Barbie doll.

Amy Adams in Calvin Klein by Appointment. The dress wasn’t that great (nice color, but the cut sucked), and Amy’s permanent babyface seems to be softening and giving way to the natural ageing process. I thought it was sad that Amy never wins anything. When will it be her time, damn it?

Catherine Zeta-Jones in Elie Saab. Sometimes I’m reminded of just how quickly gossip cycles change and celebrities go in and out of favor. Catherine Zeta Jones and Michael Douglas are old-school celebrities, and they’re still respected and admired by many in Hollywood. But… when they walked out on the carpet at the Globes, it just felt like they were two relics from another era, and they were so irrelevant now. Catherine’s look reflected that too – her Elie Saab would have been a bigger deal ten years ago. Now she looks dated, just like her Botox-y Jokerface.

Do you remember, for about five minutes last year, the Academy tried to introduce a “Popular Movie” category? If they’d insisted on moving forward with that (bad) idea, Black Panther, A Star is Born, and Bohemian Rhapsody would all qualify. Now all three are heading towards the Oscars as Best Pictur…
