Okay normally I'm going on about Gay Gate, but since they have the same initials I thought I'd blog about the Golden Globes, as in stop the presses -- they've just been cancelled. According to reputable websites such as Huff-Po, People.com, DeadlineHollywood (and a few less-than-reputable ones) The telecast of the Golden Globes Awards, scheduled for this Sunday has been cancelled. In its stead, the winners will be announced via NBC news. (and isn't that also a Dick Clark production?) Rumor is, this will still allow the Globe recipients to make statements to the press about their statuettes, but avoid the publicity nightmare of the appearance of crossing the WGA picket line. Speaking of Rumors, the only bigger loser than the Producer's Alliance for whom the cancelation is seen as a major victory for the stricking writers, is poor Rumer Willis who, tragically, won't get to appear as Miss Golden Globes 2008.
Always great info from Mr. Cox! The WGA ROCKS!!!!!!!
