[Imzadi]

A little heads up for newbies: The Red Carpet segment goes really quickly on this thread. People are typing like crazy all at the same time, seeing different dresses on 2 different channels. (On E! and NBC.)

If you post something or ask a question and it seems to get ignored you are NOT being ignored. ) Everyone is just watching, typing & posting so quickly before the dress goes off the screen. We do most of the reading, scrolling back & posting back to each others comments during the COMMERCIALS! Your posts will get a response then.

Once the show starts, it slows down to a more comfortable pace. Just hang in with us! It's going to be a great evening.

Reposting some fun facts from an article from 2015.

Golden Globes 2015: 10 fun facts about Hollywoods most free-spirited awards show

From: http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/golden-globes-2015-10-fun-facts-show-article-1.2070172


1. The stars can eat if they arrive on time

Even though the Globes serve a three-course meal catered by the Beverly Hilton Hotels chefs, dinner is served to nominees and guests closer to lunch time around 3:30 p.m. Why so early? Producers dont want dining noises, such as the clinking of silverware, to be heard during the telecast. So by the time the show begins at 5 p.m. PST, dinner has already been served. The good news: The attendees are still served alcohol, which is why guests often seem tipsy (and get tipsier) throughout the three-hour show.

2. Drinking with the stars

The champagne will definitely be flowing during the glitzy event, with 400 magnums of Moet & Chandon made available for guests, one bottle per table. The celebs can get even get the party started early, since 1,500 bottles of Moet minis will be given out on the red carpet.

3. Mixing and mingling

During commercial breaks, the stars love to get up and mingle with each other, exchanging pleasantries, air kisses and posing for selfies. The banquet-style seating encourages these kinds of casual interactions, but since its a live broadcast, those freewheeling conversations sometimes mean its a scramble to get attendees back into their seats on time. In order to get the A-listers seated before the show comes back on air, announcements are made at mid-commercial break and at the one-minute mark so stars can make their way back to their seats.

4. Amy Poehler and Tina Fey (the 2014 hosts) belong to a very exclusive club

In the history of the 72-year-old awards show, just six celebrities have hosted the Golden Globes. Besides this years returning hosts Fey and Poehler, the show has only been emceed by four other people: Andy Williams (mid-1960s), John Larroquette and Janine Turner (1995) and Ricky Gervais (2011-2013) and this year again.

Poehler is also the only host to win a Golden Globe while hosting the show, winning for her lead role on Parks and Recreation in 2014.

5. Frank Sinatra unwittingly started an A-list tradition

The Golden Globes are hosted by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, whose members are comprised of journalists. HFPA members were tasked with handing out the awards until the Globes were hijacked by the Rat Pack in 1958, when Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. stormed the stage with whiskey and cigarettes in tow to hand out the trophies. The HFPA asked the trio to repeat their performance the following year, and celebs have been tasked with giving out awards on stage ever since.

6. Celebs skipped the 2008 Golden Globes

Out of solidarity with the Writers Guild of America writers strike, no actors attended the awards show that year. Instead, the winners were announced via a live news conference hosted by entertainment news personalities. So how did the winners finally receive their awards? According to TV Guides oral history about the 2008 Globes, Entourage star Jeremy Piven was given his statuette in his driveway.

7. Not a Golden Globes nominee? Good luck getting in!

While its one of the most coveted tickets in town, its also one of the hardest to get, especially if youre not nominated. Held annually at the Hiltons International Ballroom, the space holds 111 tables. With 10-12 people seated at each table, that means less than 1,300 people will score invites to one of Hollywoods biggest nights. To compare, the Dolby Theater, which hosts the Academy Awards, seats 3,400 people.

8. The Globes is also the rare awards show with empty seats

Unlike other awards shows, the Golden Globes use no seat fillers. So when Clooney goes up to collect his Cecil B. DeMille Lifetime Achievement Award, no seat filler will take his place.

9. The Golden Globe weighs more than you think

When someone wins an award for the first time, he or she generally remarks on heavy the statuette feels. When it comes to the Globes, theres a reason for this, since the trophy weighs 5.5 pounds. To give some perspective, thats about the average weight of a bulldog puppy.

10. The events red carpet is almost as long as Noah's Ark

Noah's Ark, which in Biblical lore housed two of every animal on Earth, is generally considered to have measured 450 feet in length. Keep that in mind when you see the Golden Globe red carpet, since it measures around 437 feet which should be just enough to fit nearly every movie and TV star in Hollywood.

I am looking forward to whatever Billy Porter wears!

How are you??? We are so concerned about our Australia friends and these horrible fires. I hope you and your family are safe.

Excited for this show, it's my favorite awards show of the year!!!

Hoping Rami Malek wins for Mr. Robot. I did not think JLo's performance in Hustlers was all that great, the movie was meh.

 

[Hillbeans]

Oh, and I am excited to see the two big awards of the night, for Tom Hanks and Ellen DeGeneres!

 

[Nancy]

I'll be here. Looking forward to the Red Carpet since once again I'm not familiar with a lot of the movies or shows.

 

[DisneyJamieCA]

I’ll be in and out. I think I’ll miss most of the preshow unfortunately. Thanks for the invite!

 

[Imzadi]

How are you??? We are so concerned about our Australia friends and these horrible fires. I hope you and your family are safe.

Me too. I've been waiting to ask her when she wakes up & arrives on the thread. I think it's still overnight there. But, I've been definitely worried about PIO and our other Aussie friends & the fires over there every where.

 

[Christine]

So sorry to miss this show. I love Ricky Gervais. I've been off work for 2 weeks and would have loved to have watched this. Why do they put these things on Sunday night? I have to go back to work tomorrow and need to GO TO BED.

 

[PrincessInOz]

Hi! Thanks for thinking of me.

I am well. I live in a city and even so we had a fire in the leafy outskirts! That was the closest fire...about 30km away.

Whilst me and my family are safe, I have friends that were in the fire area to the east of Melbourne. They had to evacuate where they were staying to the local football grounds and it took them 4 days to leave the area.
I also have friends that are in the fire area to the north of the state. They are still evacuated and may only be allowed home tomorrow.

The fires are horrible this year. We are all praying for rain. We had a little sprinkle yesterday and this morning but not enough. The authorities are saying its going to get bad again at the weekend.

 

[PrincessInOz]

Me too. I've been waiting to ask her when she wakes up & arrives on the thread. I think it's still overnight there. But, I've been definitely worried about PIO and our other Aussie friends & the fires over there every where.

It's very smokey here this morning . A great day to be inside watching TV.

 

[Nancy]

Time for the red carpet.

Looking forward to dresses and tuxes.

 

[TB'sWidow]

Ryan’s tux makes him looked like a stuffed turkey

 

[figment52]

Nice dress - black/white - to start the show (E)

 

[Imzadi]
