Don’t get me wrong ‘cos I like a dance track as much as the next girl BUT…I’m scared this table gives the modern music industry’s recipe for chart success. And re: the two examples I’ve chosen – let’s not get into lyrical quality, social commentary and marketing to leverage audience drivers.

May 6 is Gorgeous George’s birthday. He’s suave, self-deprecating, puts his money where his mouth is and celebrates his wins. What’s not to love about that?

Golden Globes 2012

Oh I do love a red carpet! The “Big 3” began today with the Globes, next is the BAFTAs and then the Academy Awards.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Golden Globes.

* All photos pinned via news dot com, taken by someone with a bag full of fabulous gear and works the job of my dreams.

Kristen Wiig – a bit boho and “I’m not trying too hard” for me.

Jessica Biel with her hair down too. This is very fru-fru and feels like I’m watching Little House of the Prairie

Sarah Hyland. This looks very fresh and young, but I think the black belt “olds” it up too much.

Classic glamour from Diane Lane.

Katharine McPhee in another beige outfit. The bodice shape accentuates the sharp lines at her shoulders.

Jodie! Jodie! Put on some BLING!!

Those that know me know I HATE HAIR BOWS on babies – and alice bands on celebrities goes in this category. Michelle Williams I’m looking at you.

I think this makes Maya Rudolph look heavier than she is. I think it would have done with a graduated colour.

Jessica Chastain. This is beautiful up close – the detail is gorgeous. I think the distant view is a bit stark. I would have put colourful accessories with this..

Disaster. Shiny and shapeless – the neckline, sleeves…wrong. Such a shame. Julianna Margulies usually dresses much better.

Yippee kayai, Meryl. You can wear what you want.

The classic fishtail by Elle McPherson.

Paula Patton in a brighter fishtail.

Purple and green, eh Brooke Anderson? hmmmmmm

You’re trying too hard, Kat Kramer. Tone down the make up or the hair.

*adjusts sunnies* Bright, very bright, Maria Menounos.

Another straggly hair number from Kyle Richards. It’s a red carpet ladies, not a casting call for the Bold and the Beautiful.

Mireille, two halves don’t make a dress. Why two shades? I don’t know either. Odd.

Imagine Kelly Osbourne’s dress in emerald green, with a shorter skirt and a scoopier neckline. Imagine the hair blonde, not grey. This is what I wore to my Gr 12 formal in 1987. I know – I am ahead of my time.

Morena Baccarin. I don’t know who she is either, but she’s got her dress on back to front.

Nicole Richie – a little boho, a little bling. The clayton’s Kate Hudson.

This is a lovely dress for a young actress. Gorgeous colour on Ariel Winter from Modern Family.

This dress is by Badgley Mischka and I don’t like it for Melissa McCarthy. The colour isn’t flattering and neither is the cut. There needs to be more form up top.

This is a great dress on Octavia Spencer from The Help. The detail through the bodice gives some structure and bling and the sleeves are very flattering.

What in God’s name is this, Buffy? A tie die ode to spring break?

HOLY TOLEDO! Now this is red carpet dress. Sofia Vergara looks fantastic.

Ms Davis – a little less leg, honey. But very nice.

Rooney Mara – she doesn’t look comfortable in this. And that says it all.

Jessica Alba – stunning. The beading detail is gorgeous and she wears this with so much confidence. Terrific style.

JLo eat your heart out! Evan Rachel Wood looks terrific. Shame about the naff neck tatt from behind.

One of my favourites for this event. Emma Stone. Stunning colour, terrific makeup. Fab-u-lous.

Why does Charlize always opt for a weird cut of dress? Why?! The top half is lovely, and the bottom half like a first year design student let rip.

Mary-j Blige. Not a big fan of the feathers, but the dress style, makeup and hair are rockin.

How many two tone dresses can one woman wear. *sigh* Ms Winslet does look good though – the school marm look suits her.

Smile GOD DAMN IT! What more do you want, FFS.

This is Atelier Versace. Awesome. I think the tattoos really set it off.

Very nice. Safe, but nice safe. Not boring safe. Just. You’re on notice, Natalie.

OMG – is Reece going all bad girl now? This is a little too Best Little Whorehouse in Texas for my liking.

Best. Dress. Mrs. Urban. Has. Worn. For. Ever. Period.

Salma Hayek gets extra points for dying her hair the same colour scheme as her dress.

Tilda Swinton makes me smile. And I love that she’s a fan of David Bowie too! Seriously, this is a terrific outfit. She looks great.

Laura Dern actually pulls this colour off. No-one else who wore green did. And she won a Golden Globe, so that proves it.

This dress by J. Mendel is stunning. A bigger bracelet or a clutch … something missing, but ethereal Clare Danes again..

Cute couple. And you have no idea how much it kills me to write that 😉

THE BOYS from Modern Family !!!! GOLD STAR.

Another classic stunner dress on Kate Beckinsale – red carpet staple. Looks fab.

Dress by Reem Acra and Neil Lane. I like it. No, really.

This is Heidi Klum’s back. It doesn’t look right, does it?

Someone had to do it – a cross between Halle Berry’s immortal Oscar dress and Mrs Banderas grey number with the cane. Sorry – it had to be said.

Dianna Agron – wearing a dress by Giles Deacon. Not sure she looks comfy…it looks like she’s suckling a tryffid.

Still looking good, Mr Pitt.

Awwww - the little princess. Wouldn't we all like to dress up like this for one day?
And deep down, if you were truly honest, you would like to dress up like this – just for one day.
