..So Kate overcame being nominated against herself, which is a good sign for the big night in a few weeks! Slumdog Millionaire did very well, as was expected. Kate's speech was cute, she definitely planned it, but honestly, I liked the GG shock better than the grace with which she handled herself today. But--she's great nonetheless. Also, when Penelope Cruz won, Kate was so excited for her! Youtube it! Goldie Hawn also presented and was very cute, definitely one of the highlights. Jonathan Ross was loveable as the host. Overall, the award show was quite enjoyable.

FASHION:
Well, it was rainy, so first of all, props to everyone who braved the weather. Kate Winslet looked, of course, fantastic. The cut of the dress was different and risky but it really flattered her and she just looked incredible. Peneolpe Cruz looked great as did Angelina Jolie. FINALLY. I loved Angie's black and yellow dress, and I was happy she didn't wear something backwards and unflattering like she did to the GGs and SAGs. You're hot, Angie. Flaunt it! Emma Watson also looked great, she is really pretty and she dressed very cute and age appropriate and she presented with a lot of grace. I was impressed. Mickey Rourke looked like a semi-homeless man, Brad Pitt looked very classy, still with the facial hair though. Meryl Streep looked like Meryl Streep, she always looks so comfortable. She radiates, her outfits lately haven't been head turners, but she is Meryl Streep, she can wear what she wants and still look awesome. Freida Pinto from Slumdog Millionaire is a really pretty girl and she was dressed very well. Sharon Stone looked great in a tight little red dress, although I'm not really sure why she was there. Daniel Craig looked HOT.
