List of 2009 Golden Globe Nominees and Winners
The excitement was evident at this year's Golden Globe Awards. Celebrities were adorned with designer clothes and sparkling jewelry, and on their faces we saw joy, enthusiasm, anxiety, and dread. I'm sure that merely standing on the Red Carpet in expensive clothing being photographed and yelled at by interviewers would be enough to cause some stress, but imagine also being a Nominee to win one of the most prestigious Hollywood awards: The Golden Globe.
The nerves shone out on some faces; others hid it quite well. Beautiful actresses held their composure as interviewers like Ryan Seacrest asked about their attire. Their smiles seemed to never fade, hoping to hold on to some form of sanity. No matter what their insides were feeling like, I'm sure each Nominee at The Golden Globe Awards on Sunday night felt nervous. Let's congratulate those nominees and winners of The Golden Globe Awards. They can breathe a little better now. The following is a list of the categories, nominees, and winners, contributed by The International Herald Tribune.
