Ugly Betty’s America Ferrera looked awesome on the red carpet of the Golden Globes last night, didn’t she?
She mentioned in her interview Tuesday on The View that she hadn’t picked a dress yet. I’d say she did pretty well for just “throwing something together”. I know Ferrera is fond of Monique Lhuillier, but I don’t know if that’s who she turned to yet. Stay tuned…
As much as I love when America wears form-fitting dresses in defiance of the Hollywood zero worship, I think this dress is extremely flattering. Compared to some of her earlier red carpet …read more

During the most bizarre awards show broadcast in the history of mankind (on NBC) , Ugly Betty had only one nomination: Best Actress in a TV Musical or Comedy Series (America Ferrera).
Well, she lost. 
America had been on a hot streak, winning just about every conceivable award for which she could be nominated.  But, because the Globes like to reward newcomers, and Tina Fey is the comedic actress of the moment, few thought America would win.

Ugly Betty’s America Ferrera, nominated for a Golden Globe award for Best Actress in a comedy series, will not be attending the awards ceremony on January 13th (airing on NBC). 
The Screen Actors Guild, to which Ferrera belongs, will be boycotting the Golden Globes, according to a statement by SAG president Alan Rosenberg.  Not a acting nominee will appear (that includes Ferrera).
"After considerable outreach to Golden Globe actor nominees and their representatives over the past several weeks, there appears to be unanimous agreement that these actors will not cross WGA picket lines to appear on the Golden Globe Awards …read more

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association has lost its mind.  As you certainly have already heard, the Golden Globe nominations were announced today.  You can read the entire list of nominations here.  Now, I’ll leave it to others to critique the movie nominations. 
But the television nominations are a joke. It’s so absurd, I’m almost at a loss for words.  Let’s let E! Online’s Kristin explain to you just how crazy this is:
Either I didn’t slam enough espresso this morning for my very early morning call and was nodding off while the Golden Globe nominations were announced, or the following should-be shoo-ins were completely …read more
