Young Talent and Legends Honored at the CMT Awards
The 2007 CMT Awards are country music's version of the MTV Video Music Awards: The winners are chosen by fans, and the ceremony is more about the spectacle than the actual winners. At last night's awards ceremony, hosted by Jeff Foxworthy and held in Nashville, Carrie Underwood beat out the Dixie Chicks to win Video of the Year, and the "American Idol" winner also took home the award for Best Female Video. I was probably most excited to see legendary singer and songwriter Kris Kristofferson on stage to accept the Johnny Cash Visionary Award.
2007 Kids Choice Awards: Who the Kids Chose
I remember when the Kids Choice Awards debuted in 1987, but Nickelodeon's big event is still going strong with the green slime. This year's awards were held Saturday night in Los Angeles and hosted by Justin Timberlake, proving that the KCAs are without a doubt a major Hollywood happening.
The show is also becoming a valuable place for actors to promote summer kids' movies.
Awards Season Marches On: the NAACP Image Awards
The Oscars, the Golden Globes, and the Grammys have been doled out to the most deserving talent, but the awards show season isn't over yet. On Friday night, the stars gathered in Los Angeles for the 38th Annual NAACP Image Awards, which honor artists, particularly those of color, across movies, TV, and music.
Many of this year's honorees are well-awarded already, including Jennifer Hudson, "Ugly Betty," and Mary J.
NME Shockwaves Awards Get Creative
The Shockwave Awards, chosen by readers of the excellent British music mag NME, are like a cross between the Grammys and the MTV Movie Awards. There are all of the usual categories, like Best New Band and Best Album, plus some completely wacky ones, including Worst Band and Worst Dressed, which makes them more fun than our stodgy Grammys.
More than anything, of course, the Shockwaves are a place to see and be seen.
The "Best" of the Worst: The Razzie Awards
While you were all-consumed by the Oscars (here's a full list of winners) the always delightful Razzie Awards for bad movies were handed out on Saturday night. Some of the winners were totally predictable: I mean, not since Helen Mirren at the Oscars has an actress had a win locked up as much as Sharon Stone did for Basic Instinct 2. But there were also some big surprises, like Carmen Electra winning for Scary Movie 4 — after all, I didn't even know there was a Scary Movie 4.
All About the Oscars: My Rants and Raves
Were last night's Oscars some of the best in years or what? Not only were the winners a mix of deserving and surprising, but the ceremony was also one of the most entertaining — if still overlong — I've seen in a while. You can read my insta-commentary from last night, or if you prefer a more reflective look at the awards, here's a recap of some of the biggest shocker and more entertainment moments.
Little Miss Sunshine and Half Nelson Have Spirit (Awards)
The big ol' Oscars get all of the attention, but the Film Independent Spirit Awards are the a nice little antidote to all of the Academy Awards' grandness. Held on the Saturday night before the Oscars, this year's ceremony honored one major Best Picture nominee (Little Miss Sunshine) and some great little pictures that could, like Half Nelson. Here's a list of the 2007 Spirit Awards winners.
Pop Rocks at the Brit Awards
Aside from that whole Spice Girls thing, I continue to be impressed by the Brits' impeccable taste in pop music. I mean, can you imagine the The Artic Monkeys winning a Grammy? That's why I love the Brit Awards, the British equivalent of the Grammys, which were announced last night.
We Love the Writers Guild Awards
As a writer, I feel particularly passionate about Hollywood writing awards, and yesterday's 2007 Writers Guild Awards ceremony suggests that one of my favorite scripts this year, Little Miss Sunshine, might really be the little movie that could when it comes to screenwriting nods at the Oscars. Held in Los Angeles and attend by Tina Fey, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Mo Rocca, the awards honored achievements for movies, TV, and radio. Here's a look at the TV and movie winners.
The BAFTA Awards: The Winners
Though they were understandably overshadowed by the Grammys, the British Academy of Film and Television Arts also held its annual awards ceremony on Sunday, in London. The reason we're paying attention, of course, is to get even more Oscar buzz. In case you weren't sure already, both Helen Mirren's and Forest Whitaker's chances are looking pretty sweet right now.
