The Golden Globe Awards are airing Sunday Night on NBC and I am here to do a little preview. This year they are being hosted by an interesting combo of Andy Samberg and Sandra Oh. I look forward to seeing what kind of chemistry these two can create seeing as I would never have thought to put them together.
Historically the Globes which are run by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (no one knows who they are) and are known as the “drinking” awards. Basically the HFPA tries to get as many celebrities as they can in one room and get them liquored up. And you know what I am not mad about that one bit.
So lets get into it, I am going to lay out the nominees and say who I think should win. However I will then also put who I think will win based on what I think I know about the HFPA (probably nothing).
