Let's take a stroll down the Red Carpet...

Here's why I love the Golden Globes: It's basically a wide open view as all your favorite celebs eat dinner, mingle and swig copious amount of champagne.

I mean, who doesn't want to hang out with Amy Poehler? Although I'm hoping directly after this photo was taken, Amy turned to Drew and said, "Ok, seriously? I'm nursing a newborn and made time to get my roots done. What's your excuse?"

Did anyone else think that Drew was especially...um, dippy Sunday night? She and Jessica Lange were attached at the hips. Literally. I don't think they left each other's side all night. I get that they just did a movie together in which they portrayed mother and daughter. According to Drew, "I think viewers will find it a very unorthodox love story." Um. Yeah.


Brangelina made the red carpet rounds looking as if they'd rather be taking a nap. And really, with six kids who can blame them? They completely shunned Ryan Seacrest and it was AWESOME. I'm still waiting for Angelina to wear something besides a shiny sack to an event. But at least it wasn't black.


Kate Winslet is elegance personified. I loved that she won Best Supporting Actress and Best Actress. I plan on using her technique the next time I get flustered, "Gather..."


Sigh. Judging by this atrocious ensemble and the few articles of clothing I tried on at Banana Republic the other day, we are all supposed to resign ourselves to looking like extras from "Dynasty" for the sake of fashion. No thank you.


And then we have the Cyrus family.

Miley spent most of her time on the red carpet griping about how she received a hand-me-down Porsche for her birthday. Cry me a river, Miley, your life is so hard. I do appreciate that her dress is very age appropriate and she looks very pretty. Her mother, however, is Exhibit A for why you should never have extensive tatoos placed around your ankle. Klassy.

I appreciate the tradition of Miss Golden Globe and thought that Rumer Willis was an appropriate choice for this year. Her mom helped her pick a fabulous dress that I found very flattering. But really, when you go shopping with Demi Moore, it's bound to be a successful trip. And who else heard their own mother's voice ringing in their ears when Demi, in front of an international audience of millions, told Rumer to stand up straight? C'mon now, raise your hands...


While Eva Longoria was gorgeous, she did not gather any sympathy votes from me when she told Ryan that she was "exhausted" from sucking in all night. Uh huh, must be rough being a size zero.


Are they or aren't they? They sure put on a lovey dovey show but in Hollywood, you never know. Still, I almost wet my pants laughing when JLo told the rowdy audience, "Hello? Hello? Mama talking! Mama talking!" Makes you wonder if Marc gets a word in edgewise at home...


Marisa Tomei- LOVED IT. This might have been one of my favorite ensembles of the night. I thought it was unique but very, very chic. I don't know that anyone besides her could pull it off.


When Sting first walked on stage I honestly thought it was Robin Williams. For Trudie's sake, I'm hoping this is for a role.


Fabulous. I love her. She can do no wrong. I totally have a woman crush on her.

And really, what would an red carpet be without a little crazy? Thankfully, Renee showed up to fill that very spot.


Caption contest, y'all. Have at it...

What Could Have Been

If you haven't already discovered it, there is a gem of a site titled "Yearbook Yourself". Do not visit this site unless you are actively trying to procrastinate or want to completely shut out your surroundings.

I'm thinking the women in the following pictures need names and a brief description. So if you're feeling creative (or just want to openly make fun of me), pick one, any one, and show me what you got...

Show Me What You Got

This pic was too hilarious, too wonderful, too full of potential to pass up. I don't even think you need to watch "The Hills" to come up with a caption for this one. Let 'er rip...

Holding Our Horses

Well, it's a no-go on today's offer. A bachelor's final offer was eight grand below what we're asking AND he wanted us to take care of almost five grand in closing costs.

Mr. Country Bachelor? You do not receive a rose. Or a house.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Y'all did an outstanding job on captioning this photo. Really, I think you should all apply for a job with US Weekly's Fashion Police. In case you haven't read the comments, enjoy....


  • Krystle Carrington looking strong and confident despite Blake's continuous affair with Alexis Carrington Colby.
  • Does this dress make my knees look fat?
  • If Kenny could see me now.....
  • I just know that when Dylan McKay sees me in this dress at the Homecoming Dance, he will totally choose me over Brenda.
  • Dracula's wife called and wants her dress back.
  • Note to Self: Do not eat at Taco Bell before next movie premier. Note #2 to Self: Have PA purchase clutch-sized Charmin roll and Imodium disguised to look like cocaine. Remember pithy saying "coke is hot, diarrhea is not".
  • "Kristin Shepherd" may have shot JR, but Lucy Ewing Cooper is shooting to kill in this 1980 vintage Casual Corner gown.
  • Can somebody else come hold up this sign? My rear's getting tired.
  • Too chic for handbags, and needing both hands to crinch her waist at all times, Renee opts for a hands-free method of toting her lip gloss.
  • Surely this is the dress that will get me that Renee Zellweger Barbie doll!
  • Do I have this thing on upside-down?

I Got Nothin'

Thanks for the Skribit suggestions thus far! I'll need to scan some pics to go with what you want, but I promise to get to those ideas in the next week. Keep adding...

After a day of mooching internet anywhere I can get it (don't use Dish Network for your internet service, folks. Just don't...), I'm a wee weary. So let's see what you've got. This is a Caption Contest/Semi-Wordless Wednesday. Because, clearly, I do have some words to say and I would looooooove to see what you come up with for this picture.

(By the way, I have full permission from their mom to post this pic. She can't wait to see what you've got either. And Jonathan is in the forefront of this pic, Elijah behind him.)

Leave your caption in the comments section and have fun!

The Pope would be proud

Rita and Dave have a new car. It's so cute and I think it needs a name. So, today's caption contest is:
"Name Rita & Dave's New Car."
(*Note: This contest is not sanctioned by Rita & Dave. Just my idea to keep us all entertained for the day. But who knows? Maybe they'll actually take our suggestions into consideration.)

Of course, normally as SDQ (Southern Drama Queen) I would be the judge. For this caption contest however, I am naming Rita & Dave as my guest judges. Again, there will be a prize. People, my prizes are cute, fun and even gender specific! So, here it is, The Davis' new smart fortwo:
