Golden Globes show off best of 2012 entertainment


Hollywood elite donned the finest dresses and bowties in celebration of the 70th annual Golden Globe awards.

The ceremony honored the best in 2012 television and cinematic entertainment.

But of course, all eyes were on the red carpet, where stars paraded bold and creative evening wear choices.

Lauren Wesner, a senior athletic training major, watched the awards for the first time Sunday, and she didn’t see many dresses she liked.

“Some of them could have dressed better,” she says. “And they definitely didn’t dress for the cold weather.”

The chilly 49-degree weather didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits, especially not the evening’s hosts.

Senior art history major Meghan Haller enjoyed the antics of the mistresses of ceremonies, Amy Poehler and Tina Fey.

“Amy [Poehler] and Tina [Fey] did a much better job than last year’s host [Ricky Gervais],” Haller says. “They were much more entertaining without being as offensive.”

Haller’s least favorite moment of the evening came after Jennifer Lawrence was announced the winner in the Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy category.

“Jennifer Lawrence saying ‘I beat Meryl’ in her acceptance speech was tasteless, especially since Meryl [Streep] was out with the flu,” Haller says.

What do you think were the best and worst moments of the night? Leave your comments below.
