Nathaniel: I can't promise the live-blogging for tonight's Golden Globe Gala. But something will emerge from this internet ether eventually... a screenshot here or there, a cry of despair or jubilation, random comments from my party guests. Or maybe just a winner's list. We'll see. You're busy playing drinking games anyway. Perhaps a shot every time La Streep mugs a reaction shot?

Ricky Gervais is funny but I'm not really accustomed to hosts at the Globes. How will it go? The joy of the Globes is really watching the drunk reaction shots and glimpses of the seating arrangements. Not the banter / monologues. We'll see.

Everyone: Nathaniel look at Mariah's boobs!

Mariah is verklempt by her own cleavage!

Rich: That's actually demure for her.
txtcritic: They appear to have baby oil smeared all over them.

txtcritic: me no likey Jon Hamm + beard


Nathaniel: Eli Roth just interrupted a Penélope Cruz interview. This would only ever be acceptable under one circumstance: Her movie is sinking like a rock in awards season. Plus, this was obviously a Weinstein Co. moment. PS. I'm not a fan of Eli Roth but I do like him all cleaned up. It's very Brad Pitt all Clark Gable'ish in the final act of Inglourious Basterds "BON GIORNIO!"

txtcritic: Julia Roberts appears to be wearing the Nobel Peace Prize around her neck.

Nathaniel: I love Sophia Vergara on Modern Family. Ryan Seacrest asked her about the rain. "We're not M&Ms. We're not going to melt." She's adorable. And is wearing a color people don't usually were and that M&Ms don't come in.
