Poehler and Fey to Host the Next Two Golden Globes

For two more years, we will get to see our favorite comedic duo Amy Poehler and Tina Fey hosting the Golden Globes. They really did do a phenomenal job last year and left everyone speculating whether or not they would return. The two have signed up for two more years and we are confident that they will bring the laughs. During their last hosting stint for the Golden Globes, they were able to give the award show its best ratings in 6 years and were up 17% over the 2012 show.

Today. Sunday.

Readers today is a very big SUNDAY.

I woke up early today to watch my Seahawks play in the playoffs and while it was a great game and a fantastic comeback after the first half, we lost.

Sad day. As soon as the game finished, I had to switch gears and go straight into Golden Globes red carpet mode. I thought I was going to end up missing the show because of a happy hour that I had planned with some friends, but now that it has been rescheduled, I can now watch.

I’m giving a play-by-play of red carpet looks on my Twitter NOW and will be live-tweeting throughout the show.

Additionally, we’ve got a new ep. of Revenge and the premiere of Girls tonight so…there is my Sunday night.

Of course, expect a red carpet roundup post tomorrow!

Shailene Woodley’s Fashion Flop

I never really understood her ABC Family series, “The Secret Life of an American Teenager,” but I gave it a shot anyways. It didn’t make sense to me that “Secret” was still in the title especially after the actual secret was spoiled within the first season. I also didn’t get why everyone in the show was obsessed with sex and relationships, but moreso sex – and don’t even get me started on the acting. I do not, however, doubt her acting performance in The Descendants. I have yet to see the film, but when a film gets nominated for Best Picture, you kind of assume that it’s good stuff right?

At the Golden Globes last night, Shailene Woodley’s Marchesa gown was stunning. Not only was it one of my favorite gowns from the collection, but Shailene wore it well topping my list of best dressed for the night. During the after party, she changed into yet another beautiful gown by Calvin Klein. It looked like the young actress was well on her way to becoming a budding style icon until…we got a shot of her footwear. Instead of opting for standard Jimmy Choos or Manolos, Shailene went for a pair of awkward Vibram “Five Finger” shoes. WHY!!! She was doing so well. Poor girl, I suppose I should be more sympathetic considering she was probably on her feet all night, but still. We’ve all got our own fashion rules. This dress deserved to be paired with something amazing, but instead we were graced with something resembling of webbed feet. If I were her, I would’ve kept my feet hidden the entire rest of the evening. I do commend her for making such a bold move though and going for comfort on this one.
