Argo and Life of Pi the Big Winners!
Adele with "Puppet" Kristin Chenoweth |
I was watching Kristin Chenoweth interview Adele on the red carpet and I can't figure out if Kristin is that small, or Adele is that big! Neil and Eric thought that Seth MacFarlane started off a little shaky, only to find that it was all planned—setting the
stage for some singing and dancing. It all seemed like a throwback to the days of Bob Hope and Johnny Carson hosting. Personally, I thought there would be more gingers, but instead all the technical people had long blond hair. Speaking of technical people…Eric thought it was a bad call to have the orchestra at a different site. Some of the music overpowered the performers, as in the case of Adele and Barbra Streisand. I didn't think that was possible!

The Highlight of the Show 76-Year-Old Dame Shirley Bassey singing "Goldfinger" |
I don't think Catherine Zeta Jones was singing live, but Dame Shirley Bassey and Jennifer Hudson definitely were. They were the evening's highlights! Congratulations to all of the winners! It was a big night and I'm pooped this morning.
