Everyone who could spare the time between tokes attended the 16th Annual Critics’ Choice Movie Awards 2011. These awards aren’t really on my radar, as I actively try to ignore anything outside of the Academy Awards, The Golden Globes, The Emmys, The Grammy Awards and the MTV Movie Awards/ VMAs.
I pretty much don’t pay attention unless the awards matter/ there’s a flawless red carpet. This red carpet ticked some boxes and enough interesting people attended to fit the bill. Only just. The 2011 Critics’ Choice Movie Awards were held on Friday January 14 (who in the heck holds awards on a Friday?) at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles, CA. People on the red carpet included the following, in order; Natalie Portman, again drowning her baby bump in material; Kim Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian… I don’t know why; Michelle Williams; Eva Mendes, who ruined your fun by wearing a bra; Ryan Gosling; Sofia Vergara; Mila Kunis; Quentin Tarantino; Keith Urban and wife Nicole Kidman; Tilda Swinton; Jeff Bridges; Amy Adams; Helena Bonham Carter; Emily Blunt; Mandy Moore; Colin Firth; Jon Hamm; Jonah Hill; Jeremy Renner; Julianne Moore; Maroon 5; Andrew Garfield.
