Golden Globe

The winners for the 2008 Golden Globes were announced tonight at the

Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California in rather quiet fashion.

No stars, no Hollywood power players... No, with the Writer's Guild

strike still going strong, tonight's ceremony was a very business-like

affair. Winners will receive this year's Globe awards by mail.In Lieu

of celebs, this year's awards were presented by hosts of various

entertainment news/gossip shows such as Mary Heart from E.T., Brooke

Anderson from CNN and Laura Spencer from The Insider.

The only real surprise was that clips were actually shown from a few

categories, such as Best Animated Feature, Best Musical or Comedy and

Best Drama. Word is the Hollywood Foreign Press had to pay to license

these brief clips for the show.Actors and filmmakers skipped the

Golden Globes because of the two-month-old strike by the guild, which

had planned pickets outside the show if organizers had tried to do

their usual televised ceremony. Globe planners and NBC canceled the

three-hour bash in favor of the news conference, attended by about 600

politely clapping journalists, TV crews, HFPA members, guests and

publicists in business attire.
