Was it just me or was last night's Golden Globe ceremony less gold than blue? (It was even unfortunately brown what with all the references to Bridesmaids poop jokes). "Blush" was both a red carpet trend and something that stars were having to do.
The evening literally began with a beaver joke and ended with a dick gag. Both Jodie Foster and Michael Fassbender were good sports about the below-the-belt ribbing but what the hell did they spike the drinks with last night?
Jodie's Beaver
Ricky Gervais set the bawdy tone kicking off with a joke that seemed to be about Mel Gibson (he wasn't allowed to talk about him) but morphed into a much better one about Jodie Foster. He can't mention Mel Gibson...
Especially not Jodie Foster's Beaver. I haven't seen it myself.
I've spoken to a lot of guys here. They haven't seen it either.
...But that doesn't mean it's not any good!
One of the talking dumbheads at E! after party actually thought that was a joke about Jodie still being hot after birthing two children. Oh no, honey, no. That's not what the joke was about.
Elton John did not think this joke was funny in a subsequent cutaway -- though he knew what the joke was about -- but he had a permascowl on his face throughout the evening, only smiling when Morgan Freeman interrupted his own speech to say "Hi Elton"
Fassbender's Frontal
When Clooney won Best Actor, He gave a beautiful shout out to his friend and former co-star Brad Pitt before going straight for the Fassbender dick jokes, even pantomiming a golf swing without a golf club.
Also you get to meet a lot of other wonderful young actors. I met -- I'd like to thank Michael Fassbender for taking on the frontal nudity responsibility that I had.
Really Michael? Honestly, can you play golf with your hands behind your back?
Go for it man, do it.
George, George, George...
Surely that was as good as a $100 million blockbuster for upping Michael Fassbender's Q Quotient round the world.
