The awards keep coming!!!

The president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Assn. has just pointed out that Clint Eastwood, Jack Nicholson and Meryl Streep were all nominated in the same categories 13 years ago as they are tonight. He made a refrence to Norma Desmond but it kinda fell flat. Streep and Nicholson, who must have 40 nominations between them, look like they don't know what the hell he's talking about. I'm figuring Eastwood was up for "The Unforgiven," Nicholson for supporting actor in "A Few Good Men" and Streep for "Death Becomes Her." I'll check the answers later.

Best actor in a drama: Hugh Laurie in "House" has won. He had stiff competition in Keifer Sutherland, Michael C. Hall, Bill Paxton and one more dude (I'm blank!) Laurie is funny in his speech saying that since everyone wants to give nominees everything for free in the weeks leading up to the Globes, he wonders why they don't offer a free acceptance speech.

Emily Blunt won for best suporting actress in a TV movie. She won for "Gideon's Trumpet" but is also nominated for "The Devil Wears Prada" as Emily, Meryl Streep's panicked first-assistant.
