On With The Show...

Getting "Red"y
Seth Meyers

Tonight Hollywood's biggest party, the Golden Globe Awards turns 75 - that's right folks the GG's are three quarters of a century old. To celebrate this milestone they got themselves Seth Meyers to host.

Even though I believe the only nominated film I have seen this year thus far is I, Tonya most likely I will watch them as the show tends to be entertaining because of it's spontaneous moments that one does not usually see on the tightly orchestrated Oscars.

Also I love seeing the women decked out in their best and worst gowns. Daring fashion viewing is a calling of mine. 

Without further adieu, let me leave you with a list of the nominees...go Golden or???

Critics, Boobies & Hayden Panettiere

The Mighty Hayden Panetierre 

As well all know by now, Hayden Panettiere of the hit series Nashville has been, like her alter ego on the show Juliette Barnes, suffering from postpartum depression.

While this is not something to laugh at, it looks like Hayden is on the upswing. She made a rare red carpet appearance looking radiant for the 2016 Critic's Choice Awards. She was nominated for Best Supporting Actress on a Drama Series. 

OK, while I should not make light of this, when we all look at this image we are all collectively thinking: Boobies, boobies, boobies!

Seriously, WOW! Hayden is a petite young woman standing a mighty 5 feet. Looks like despite all of her rounds in the postpartum ring, birth becomes her. 

Cheers Ms. Panettiere, to your health, happiness and well deserved nomination!

The Late Show: Darlene Love's Last Stand

Darlene Love Is Amazing!

Tune in tonight everyone, it's my friend and awesome person, Darlene Love's last stand on The Late Show with David Letterman singing Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) -

I had the extreme pleasure of interviewing Ms. Love about her Concert Of Love for Chorus and Verse, jump to that here:

http://www.chorusandverse.com/content.php?id=20101110a

This was when she was nominated and eventually claimed her spot in the Rock-N-Roll Hall of Fame.

She states: "When I am singing it I am telling everyone to go back home to their loved ones"

The song has now become a Christmas staple sung by the likes of Mariah Carey and Michael Buble'.

Love you Darlene! (no pun intended) I will be tuning in tonight!
