Random Photos Part One -- Sexiest Man Alive Edition

Adrian Grenier
Johnny Depp
The wonderful Jorge Camara who is doing a masterful job as the current President of The Hollywood Foreign Press Association.
Hugh Jackman on a beach. That kind of sounds like a Dr. Seuss book. Hugh Jackman on a beach, Hugh Jackman runs on sand.
Dave Annable
Remember how everyone keeps saying that Christina Aguilera needs to take off all the Kaubki makeup? I was wrong.
Shemar Moore
Wow. I am really in a Catch 22 here. I want those press credentials, but the snark in me wants to say something about Rumer Willis and what she chose to wear at the announcement of her selection as Miss Golden Globes. I think she is trying to appeal to the four Amish people in the world who have televisions.
Ryan Reynolds
On the back it says I Love Making Porn, Valtrex, and Dogs You Never See More Than Once.
What is a Hayden Panettiere appearance without Mario Lopez? Maybe it was just a coincidence that he showed up at EA's launch party of NEED FOR SPEED PROSTREET.

Paoula Abou-Jaoude Brazil

Over the next several weeks I am going to try and dig up some information on each one of the members of the HFPA and share that information with you, the readers who are spread across this vast globe. I am beginning with Paoula Abou-Japude from Brazil who was given the prestigious International Media Award by IATSE last year, and is the Executive Producer of the film Olhar Estrangeiro which describes fantasies and clichés about Brazil and Brazilians as reinforced by international films, even those actually shot in Brazil. This documentary features interviews with non-Brazilian directors, writers and stars who have been involved in some of those films including Michael Caine, Jon Voight and Hope Davis. I encourage you to view the film and to pass along to Paoula at the HFPA just how much you loved the film. He can be e-mailed at info@hfpa.org. While you are writing you may want to tell them about the site and that giving this site access to the red carpet and media room at the Golden Globes is brilliant.

For those of you reading this in Brazil, or from Brazil please send any e-mails to Paoula in Portuguese. Of course those of you in Portugal could probably get away with some mischief also. Don't be shy.

Latin Grammy Awards

At first glance I thought Borat had invaded the show and the woman was wearing Kazakh money on her head, but it turns out it is the group Aterciopelados. Yeah, I don't know how you pronounce it either. But hopefully the fine people over at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and the Michael Russell Group will pay careful attention over the next several weeks as I attempt to get press credentials for our movie reviewer and therefore suck up to every nation in the HFPA. Sucking up though, does not mean no snark, as you will see shortly.
Mario Lopez is why snark was invented, but hey at least he irons his jeans.
This is Miguelito. Let's just hope he doesn't turn into Miguelito Jackson.
That must have been one big animal.
As far as I know Jaslene Gonzalez doesn't sing or really do anything which would make her have to appear at the show. That being said, I am so glad she did. Latin Grammys sponsored by a Dutch beer. Theo Kingma is the HFPA member from The Netherlands. Hope you enjoy Jaslene sir and the plug for the fine alcohol that comes from your country. My only suggestion would be to keep the bars slightly further from the red light area. Won't get into details here. But bye bye wife number 3.
I'm going to take wild stab in the dark here that Ivy Queen doesn't text much.
Where the hell have you been Benjamin Bratt? Nice to see you and your lovely wife Talisa Sota. She looks like a happy sort.
This is the group Strings For Kids. They are not to be confused with the group Ropes For Kids or Chinese Toys for Kids.
Ricky Martin says hi to all his Hawaii gays.
Did Ruben Blades ever become the President of Panama? I know he kept trying.
This is Orishas. I have no idea who they are, but I do know that the women in my office love them.
