Let's get the BAD out of the way first...
Look at Drew Barrymore. Isn't this dress DIVINE! She had a chance to make this a winning look, but from the neck up she ruined it entirely. That HAIR and the makeup is bad too.

Oh Jenna Fisher....has it come to this? The shape is great for her body...the print is all wrong for this occasion. If she were going to a Summer premier it would have been fine, but it's the Golden Globes....you can't wear cotton!

Glenn Close wore a oddly gold tunic top with cropped pants. How unfortunate.

Renee Zelweger just looked a hot mess. Every bit of it is wrong from the hair to the dress to the yellow gold accessories.

Cameron Diaz went with an oddly cut dress in a geriatric coral color and with bed-head that hit too close to home. Bad roots, no life and it looked stringy.

And now for a strange blend of chic and tragic. Look at gorgeous Kira Sedgewick. Everything is working for her. The dress, the jewelry, the hair the make-up. And she was gracious enough to escort a homeless psychotic man fresh out of rehab as her date. Oh wait, that's her husband, Kevin Bacon. Talk about mis-matched couple. He looks unforgivably disgusting.

And now to the FABULOUS...
My early favorite was Anne Hathaway. She almost always gets it right. Everything is in perfect balance and she looks elegant and beautiful without being boring.

And also getting high marks is Elizabeth Banks. Some people thought the gown was too wispy, but I loved the whole look. Especially the jewels and matching hair clip. She also managed to get volume in her hair without it looking teased and stiff like so many other actresses. Way to go Elizabeth!

Do you really care about the men?
Okay, I'll mention them too.
Best dressed man was Tom Cruise. Crazy looks good on him.

Worst dressed man was either Tracey Morgan, who showed up as a waiter or Mickey Rourke, who showed up as...well....Mickey Rourke (we were expecting anything else?)

I knew I could count on your summary as a highlight to my day. Thanks for the laughs. I am in my classroom and my students are probably afraid of the fact that their teacher keeps laughing alone at the computer. Well worth it.
i am glad someone else enjoys award shows as much as i do! Jon and i think that dew barrymore had a breast reduction...what do you think? I agree about the crazy hair as well.
I love this psot! I agree with everything but Jenna Fisher! I loved her dress! Pattern and all ;)
I agree with Heidi on Jenna Fischer...loved the whole look!...including the pattern!
Poor poor Drew...she *almost* had it.
Love your wrap-up!!!! Seriously I almost pee-d with the kira & kevin comments!
I concur with all your comments! WTG!
Anne Hathaway is just SO pretty. She gives me hope that people with dark hair and uber-white skin can still be beautiful.
Spot on, Em!
Drew's hair had me throwing couch pillows at the TV.
Ahhhhh!!! What was she thinking. It was down-right scary!
:D Great post!
OMG, Kevin looks terrible! And I love your do's & don'ts list! Are you going to watch the Grammy's?
Oh I really liked drew's dress. And with renee I liked the skirt, but the top is no bueno.
Michelle....you have to READ the words...not just look at the pictures. LOL!
I liked Drew's dress too!
dude... I loved Eva's dress! But I don't know if I liked it so much on her. Maybe I'd like it better on a size two version of ME! hehe
I never thought I'd be able to say that I have movie star hair, but my hair looks JUST like Cameron Diaz's... every single day. Roots and all, a tragic victim of the economy.
I think Anne Hathaway needed a necklace, but was otherwise flawless.
I love when celebrities totally get it wrong! Make me feel a little better about myself! heh heh heh
But, where are Eva Longoria and Kate Beckinsale--terrific!
And I thought Amy Adams looks great too!
Love your fashion reports. The one about Kevin Bacon was dead on. Really? Did she let him wear that or just lose the battle in the limo on the way over?
Sadly, this is the best the Mickey Rourke has looked in ages!
Thanks for the laughs, Emilie! I can honestly say this is the first time I've ever been frightened by Kevin Bacon!
That was great! Thanks for the recap!
i always enjoy reading your fashion critiques :) kevin bacon really looks bad. sad.
