Not Classy: Megan Fox Thinks She Looks Like Alan Alda, and is a Tranny

Duncan Riley — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 02:16:29 +0000

I know the moment I even mention Megan Fox’s name, salivating fans will be ready to defend her, but class is something Fox doesn’t have. Take these comments on the red carpet at The Golden Globes as an example:

“I am pretty sure I am a doppelgänger for Alan Alda. I’m a tranny. I’m a man. I’m so painfully insecure. I’m on the verge of vomiting now. I am so horrified that I am here, and embarrassed. I’m scared.”

WTF? She’s also painfully insane. What sort of batshit crazy things are these to say while being interviewed on live TV? Oh Hai, I’m a tranny!

Here’s the Megan Fox Golden Globes interview video for your non enjoyment:

Ryan Ryan Seacrest Brangelina Snub Video

What did poor little Ryan Seacrest do deserve this? Bran Pitt and Angelina Jolie purposely ignored an interview from Ryan Seacrest at the Golden Globes last night in a move that as per the video below was clearly intentional.

It gets better at the end when security steps in to keep Seacrest away from Hollywood’s most powerful celebrity couple.

Slumdog Millionaire Wins Four Golden Globes

Duncan Riley — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 04:26:05 +0000

Slumdog Millionaire, the British/ Indian movie based in the slums of Mumbai has won four Golden Globes, the biggest haul for the night.

Awards for Slumdog Millionaire were: best movie (drama), best director for Danny Boyle, best screenplay and best score. You can see my review here, and I can’t say enough how great it is to see it winning; this isn’t your typical Hollywood film, and that it can win like this bides well for the industry as a whole.

Other winners include Best Performing Actor gongs to Colin Farrell – In Bruges (Comedy or Musical), Mickey Rourke – The Wrestler (Drama); Best Actress: Sally Hawkins – Happy-Go-Lucky (Comedy or Musical), Kate Winslet – Revolutionary Road (Drama). Best Picture Comedy or Musical went to Vicky Cristina Barcelona.

As we reported earlier, Heath Ledger picked up the Golden Globe for The Dark Knight.

Other notable winners: Best animated feature film: Wall-E, and Best Supporting Actress: Kate Winslet – The Reader (her second award for the night).

In the TV awards, the HBO series Mad Men picked up best television series – drama and 20 Rock the best comedy award.

Slumdog Millionaire goes into the Academy Awards at the short priced favorite after a string of wins leading up to, and including the Golden Globes. If you haven’t seen it yet, check out the Slumdog Millionaire Trailer.

Heath Ledger wins Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor

Duncan Riley — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 02:27:48 +0000

Heath Ledger has won the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor this evening, making him a short priced favorite to pick up an Academy Award.

Christopher Nolan, Director of The Dark Knight accepted the award on behalf of Ledger:

“All of us who worked with Heath on ‘The Dark Night’ accept this with an awful mixture of sadness, but incredible pride.” While Nolan said Ledger’s passing represented “a hole ripped in the history of cinema,” he also pointed to “the incredible place in the history of cinema that he built for himself.” Nolan ended his remarks by saying, “He will be eternally missed, but he will never be forgotten.”

Ledger has been named best supporting actor of 2008 in the following awards this seasons: Los Angeles Film Critics Association, the Boston Society of Film Critics, the Chicago Film Critics Association, the Southeastern Film Critics Association, the Toronto Film Critics Association, and the Washington D.C. Area Film Critics Association.

The honor comes just short of the first anniversary of Ledger’s 2008 death by accidental drug overdose.

The alleged error was quickly removed, but not before half the world heard about it.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association has so far not commented on the issue.

A glitch or early disclosure?
