2011 Golden Globe Award Live Blog: Winners and Commentary

You made it! Any last second upset picks?

4:57:24 PM: I will give it to NBC, this is a much better live carpet… not entirely annoying. But let’s get to the show folks.

4:57:51 PM: Oh man, I was wrong… Pitt is there. Oops. HFPA really won by nominating Jolie.

4:58:41 PM: Here we go!

4:59:04 PM: Ricky Gervais already has his beer waiting for him at the podium.

4:59:40 PM: Gervais starts off ripping Charlie Sheen.

5:00:25 PM: “Everything this year was three-dimensional… except for The Tourist.” – Gervais

5:00:51 PM: “Just kidding, haven’t even seen it… but who has.” – Gervais

5:01:06 PM: Just said he saw one of the ladies of Sex and the City 2 in an episode of “Bonanza”.

5:02:16 PM: Ripped Tom Cruise, ripped the HFPA… Gervais is not holding back.

5:02:47 PM: Referred to Hugh Hefner as “the walking dead”.

5:03:48 PM: Now to the first presenter, Scarlett Johansson.

5:04:15 PM: Scarlett’s presenting for Best Supporting Actor… my pick is Christian Bale for The Fighter.

5:05:07 PM: And the winner is Christian Bale, The Fighter

5:06:00 PM: Wow, Bale now insults the HFPA, “Who are those four characters at the press junket?”

5:07:27 PM: Solid speech by Christian Bale, people are going to like this guy much, much more after that. Forget the Terminator Salvation outburst.

5:08:11 PM: LL Cool J and Julie Bowen awarding Best Actress TV (Drama)

5:08:49 PM: The winner is Katey Sagal for “Sons of Anarchy”

5:09:47 PM: Katey Sagal was the mom on “Married with Children”… for some reason that’s crazy to me.

5:11:31 PM: Whew, commercial break… I need a small break.

5:15:12 PM: We’re back with Julianne Moore and Kevin Spacey presenting Miss Golden Globe… you know, because it matters. Gia Mantegna. Now best TV Mini-Series or Movie.

5:16:22 PM: Damn, Gia got about four seconds of air time.

5:18:01 PM: The winner is “Carlos”, which annoys me to no end considering it’s a movie and not a TV show, but oh well.

5:19:54 PM: Gervais is back on stage and there is a hum of fright from the celebs as they don’t want to be singled out.

5:20:23 PM: And he introduces “Ashton Kutcher’s dad, Bruce Willis”. Good on yah Ricky!

5:20:55 PM: Willis is introducing his movie Red as one of the nominees for Best Picture (Comedy/Musical)… yay!

5:21:39 PM: Garrett Hedlund and Leighton Meester are out to present Best Supporting Actor in a television show.

5:22:29 PM: Meester’s dress is a high riser.

5:22:44 PM: And the winner is Chris Colfer for “Glee”

5:24:24 PM: Colfer is the first one not to get played off. That’s got to be a win.

5:26:07 PM: Commercial break time, which means more food.

5:28:40 PM: Michelle Pfeiffer is out to introduce Alice in Wonderland as a Best Picture (Comedy/Musical). She may weigh one pound more than the last time I saw her… so she’s up to about 51 pounds now.

5:29:45 PM: Ricky Gervais just said he had to help the president of the HFPA “off the toilet and help him pop his teeth in.” Keeping it classy San Diego.

5:30:33 PM: And that president would be Phillip Burke who throws a jab at Ricky. This guy writes for Galaxy and something else… Two publications I have never heard of. So he must be important.

5:32:04 PM: Kevin Bacon and Milla Jovovich are presenting for Best Actor TV Series (Drama)

5:32:29 PM: My guess is Steve Buscemi.

5:33:08 PM: And the winner is Steve Buscemi for “Boardwalk Empire”

5:35:40 PM: Now for Best TV Series (Drama)

5:36:01 PM: My pick is “Boardwalk Empire”

5:38:11 PM: Commercial break, but not before we get a shot of Angelina Jolie helping Brad Pitt with his clip-on tie.

5:41:55 PM: Welcome back, here is Andrew Garfield (your new Spider-Man) to present The Social Network as one of the Best Picture (Drama) nominees.

5:42:49 PM: He has a hard time saying “inspiringly written” and I can understand his issues since “inspiringly” isn’t a word.

5:43:48 PM: Alec Baldwin and J-Lo are out to present Best Original Song

5:46:06 PM: And the winner is “You Haven’t Seen the Last of Me” from Burlesque
