Screen Actors Guild 2010

The 16th Screen Actors Guild Awards are being held tomorrow at the gorgeous Shrine Auditorium, just one week after the Golden Globes. Many of the nominees are similar, and the question of the night will be if those same actors who walked away with the Golden Globe will also take home the SAG award.

A relatively new show, the SAG awards started in 1995 and awards performers within a cast or as an individual in a TV show or motion picture. This year, the 46th Life Achievement Recipient is none other than Golden Girl favorite, Betty White.

 

 Here are the nominees for this year's Screen Actors Guild, with my predictions in bold:

Golden Globes 2010

Last night, stars came out in glamour, fashion don'ts...and rain. Aside from umbrellas, there were a few prevalent colors on the red carpet. Shades of purple seemed to be the color of the night, as well as black and various soft colors such as peach, champagne and pinks.

There were a few of my faves:

Luis Antonio

Christian Siriano

Victoria Beckham

Dolce & Gabbana

Hair and Makeup:

And then there were the not so faves:

Carolina Herrera

Marchesa 

Roberto Cavalli 

Zac Posen

Ricky Gervais was a funny break from the usual presenters, and even managed to add a few zingers in there...like this one:

Oh...and can someone explain why THIS happens?

Golden Globe Countdown

This is my favorite time of year! Movies and TV shows are being honored for their acting, writing and directing among other things, and I just love waiting for all of the red carpet arrivals. Those "what where you thinking" moments are always fun, but the best part is seeing all of the trends and styles our favorite actors/actresses are trying out. 

 

 Golden Globes 2009 

 

In addition, I have been watching new shows this year that are nominated, so I am excited to see who takes home the honors. My personal faves are of course Mad Men, House and Dexter all of which are nominated in the same categories. There are quite a few movies I need to see before I can make a judgment; however, to be honest, not many seem to interest me.

This year's Miss Golden Globe is the daughter of actress Alfre Woodard, Mavis Spencer. Awarded by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, Miss or Mr. Golden Globe is the child of a celebrity, and last year we remember Rumer Willis had the honors.
