Everybody knows that play-at-home award show games are kind of like winning, anyway. And unlike winning an Oscar, you can go right ahead and do this in sweatpants without being made into a Fashion Police laughingstock.
The Hollywood Reporter has an interesting story about the #AskHerMore campaign. Started in February 2014 by The Representation Project, the campaign aims to encourage reporters to ask women on the red carpet better, and more interesting questions. Namely, to get interviewers to stop asking the time-honored question,…
Upworthy has compiled a super cut of actresses being asked solely about their clothing and weight. Perhaps being asked, "Who are you wearing?" is less offensive than some of the questions thrown ScarJo's way while promoting The Avengers. "Were you able to wear...undergarments?" some clueless interviewer asks. "You're…

Here's Amy Poehler and Tina Fey opening the Golden Globes mean girl bestie-style with a series of sick burns on the rich, famous, and drunk.
It's just an award show right? WRONG. I mean yes, you're right, but considering the amount of time, money and planning that goes into these events, it better be the best thing or the closest to best thing ever. And Monday night's 2014 Emmys was not the best thing ever. Not even close.

The geniuses at NBC, determined to systematically alienate every demographic in America, have moved the network's Emmy broadcast from its traditional Sunday evening time slot to Monday to make way for a football game. Apparently preseason football is more important than scripted TV's Super Bowl.

This year's Country Music Award nominees were announced on Tuesday, and, if a person were to judge the state of country music from the list — dominated by the likes of Kacey Musgraves, Miranda Lambert, and Taylor Swift — they'd probably think that maybe these women were getting country stations to play their damn…

Or actually, wait until after January 13th, because that's the day when the Only Women Who Understand Us, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, are set to host the Golden Globes! How great is that?

Well, this is depressing. After what seemed like 17 identical spasmodic performances and a Grammy award for Best R&B album, a contingent of Chris Brown's female fans took to Twitter last night to congratulate and compliment the famously punch-happy singer— by offering themselves up for celebratory beatings. And all on…

For an awards show without a host this year, the MTV Video Music Awards sure left us with a lot to talk about the next day: Lady Gaga spoke only as her alter (male) ego for the night (and almost kissed Britney Spears), Jonah Hill speaks about his dramatic weight loss, and Beyoncé and Jay-Z are having a baby.

At some point, it became a thing for the host of an award show wear a different ensemble every time she hits the stage. Last night, Eva Longoria hosted the "prestigious" MTV Europe Music Awards, and fulfilled her presto-change-o requirements.
The 66th Annual Golden Globes aired last night, and unless you like hearing Kate Winslet list the crew credits for two films, the stuff worth watching can be boiled down to under two minutes.

Awards shows have a strange way of sneaking into our lives. Even those of us who would rather watch paint dry than watch the actual ceremonies will, inevitably, find ourselves talking about the dumb show.
