Big Emmy Winners: The Sopranos & 30 Rock

Although there were so many winners last night at the glittering ceremony of The Emmy Awards, the biggest ones were the ones who won Best Drama & Best Comedy ... The Sopranos & 30 Rock.
During the ceremony, as the award for Best Actor in a Drama was about to be handed out, i was pretty sure The Sopranos James Gandolfini was going to win ... i really didn't expect James Spader to take away the trophy! ... I was a bit disappointed ... But, what i didn't know is that there was a bigger award waiting for Gandolfini & the cast of The Sopranos by the end of the ceremony.

List of Emmy 2007 Winners

The Emmy 2007 Awards last night were an occasion to see our favorite stars & cheer for the nominees & jump in joy for the winners!
I have to say that the red carpet was mainly revolving around Ryan Seacrest!!! But, Thank God, we did manage to catch a glimpse of the stars.
The first two nominees to find out that they're actually winners were Jeremy Piven [Entourage] for Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy & Terry O'Quinn [Lost] for Best Supporting Actor in Drama.

The thing is, the nominees are over excited ... don't think that they don't get butterflies in their stomachs, they do!
As for the rumor of Britney Spears appearing at The Emmy's ... don't expect that to happen! Did you really think, Brit Brit would get on stage just one week after the VMA's catastrophe?!

Did Live Earth Serve Its Purpose?

Last Saturday hundreds of performers – actors, singers and even politicians came together in the worldwide concert event Live Earth! Said concert was organized by the Alliance for Climate Protection, an organization which was founded by US former Vice President Al Gore. The whole point of the concert is to raise money for the Alliance in order to aid in raising people’s awareness on what they can do in order to protect the environment specifically from global warming. The concert lasted 24-hours with various stars making attendance at the New Jersey Giants Stadium. Being a concert, the people were really kept entertained by the different musical scores while at the same time giving them some food for thought about the environment.

Concert in Honor of Princess Diana!

The day before yesterday, 1st of July, was the anniversary of Princess Diana’s death and her sons William and Harry held a concert in her honor. Elton John opened the concert in Wembley Stadium, London. Unfortunately the excitement about the concert was greatly tuned down after the attack on Glasgow airport, but Prince's William and Harry insisted that the show must go on. The sons gathered a great number of Pop musicians including Rod Stewart and Duran Duran in a show that went on for six continuous hours and was broadcast in 145 countries and watched by 500 million people!

16th Annual 'Reel Awards' in Las Vegas

Last night at the Imperial Palace and Casino, George w. Bush, Tom Cruise & Paris Hilton sat next to each other at the 16th annual 'Reel Awards'!
At first glance, those people are exactly what you see ... but if you take a second, closer look, you'll discover that Bush, Tom, Paris, Angelina & Bobby De Niro are just look-a-likes of the real celebrities!!!
Some, like to call themselves Celebrity Impersonators, but they are look-a-likes just the same ... some of them hit the spot right on, while others are just really off!

They raised about $9.2 Million for Darfur.

MTV Video Music Awards Update!

Every year, the wild MTV VMA's are an event that no one wants to miss but because MTV shows it about 100 times after it's finished no one really bothers to watch it live! So this year MTV are giving the awards a facelift!
The first part of the change is that it will be airing from Las Vegas, the reason for this being that MTV worries that the VMA’s are getting a bit tame and what better way to make things wild than to move to Sin City! The VMAs previously aired from Miami, New York and Los Angeles, so this year’s venue is quite a change!

Tribeca Film Festival Kickoff Featuring Al Gore!

The prime of young Hollywood actors and actresses hit the red carpet recently to present and receive the Young Hollywood Awards. Justin Long (the actor from the teen comedy ‘Accepted’) played the role of the host and MC to the event and welcomed all the young faces who went up to accept and present the awards! Apparently Justin long wasn’t the nicest of hosts as he had something to so pleasant to say about everyone from Jessica Alba to Anne Volokh, the Hollywood life publisher, who he told ‘smelled like formaldehyde.’!

This is how it works; tomorrow for example, Manhattan restaurants will invite diners to donate one dollar for their normally free tap water towards UNICEF.

How did Ellen DeGeneres do at The Oscars?

Ellen is a funny gal ... but how did she do last night at The Oscars?
It was Ellen's first time hosting the Academy Awards ... she had lots of jokes up her sleeve ... but were they funny enough ... does she get 10 out of 10?
She wasn't sharp ... but her warm & low key jokes were what relaxed the audiences & made them at ease.
One of the funniest things she said was: "hosting the Oscars has been a dream of mine since I was a little girl. Let that be a lesson to you kids out there - aim lower."
Then there was that ironic parallel between Jennifer Hudson, a losing contestant from American Idol & former US Vice President Al Gore, who lost an election for president despite winning the popular vote.

Best Moments of The Oscars Red Carpet

The Red Carpet is always an exciting place to be ... The stars arrive, the cameras start flashing away & the reporters get their chance to ask the stars all the questions, whether silly, funny or burning questions ... They just fire away!
Last night the red carpet was bubbling & sizzling ... Wish I was there!
In all cases, the best moments of the red carpet arrivals -in my opinion- were when Nicole Kidman & Naomi Watts stood side by side for an 'Aussie' moment! Kidman looked smashing in a red dress, while Watts looked elegant in a cream dress ... She did look like she had a baby bump underneath that dress!

Who Ruled The Oscars?

So many stars, so many categories, so may nominations ... But who won the real golden boy? Which stars can really say they ruled the Oscars last night?
In my opinion, Forest Whitaker, Helen Mirren & Jennifer Hudson were in control! Oh! I cannot forget Martin Scorsese ... He won! At last he won! Not only one awards, but four! Most importantly one for Best Director & another for Best Adapted Screenplay & both are for The Departed. He must have been ecstatic!

Will Jon Stewart Host The Oscars?

The long search for a host for the most important night in Hollywood isn't over yet! At least as far as we know!
Jon Stewart did a great job last year & if he cracks the jokes at the 79th Academy Awards on February 25th, it would be fantastic!
Billy Crystal was the host 8 or 9 times ... he surprised us every time with new jokes & great punch lines. I wasn't so excited about Chris Rock the other year ... but last year Jon made the event worth watching even more!
Who would you like to see hosting The Oscars this year? ... Me, i'd give my vote to Jon Stewart!

Who Got Nominated for the 79th Awards?

So, guess who's on the list for a huge golden raspberry ... Sharon Stone & her movie Basic instinct 2 ... What do you think? ... Did she suck to the extent of being awarded a raspberry?

Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt at The Golden Globes Awards

I was waiting for The Golden Globe Awards & the thing i wanted to see most was Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt arriving together to the red carpet.
Brad was stunning in his Tux & Angelina was too ... but i think her dress was a bit too simple for the event.
Angelina has a contract with St. John, she is obligated to wear clothing from St. John on the red carpet due to a deal as spokesperson for the clothing maker. And it seems she wasn't happy with the dress this time! It was obvious that there was something bothering her during the awards.

A Golden Night with The Golden Globe Awards

It's only hours away ... I am on my toes & I bet you are too.

The hottest competition will be between the movies Babel, Flags of Our Fathers & The Queen.

We all saw Clint Eastwood's labor of love, Million Dollar Baby, receive the top awards last year (including; Best Picture, Best Director for Clint Eastwood, Best Actress in a Leading Role for Hilary Swank, Best Actor in a Supporting Role for Morgan Freeman)
And who could forget The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King's 11 Oscar sweep back in 2004?
You gotta love the Oscars!
With the Academy Awards ceremony only hours away, people are still wondering who is going to walk away with the Oscar tonight, while others have already placed their bets.
Many have predicted, some are conflicted, but at the end of the day... It's not about who we want to win, it's about who is going to win!
This year it looks like a close race in all the major categories...
