News 1marked the start
of awards season with the
igth Annual Hollywood Film
Awards (HFA). Now, I could
talk about the amazing people
who were honoured, but that
just wouldn't be my style. The
night started with a bang as
celebrity after celebrity walked
the red carpet in their formal
finest, giving every fashion
lover out there a tasty preview
of awards show regalia still to
come. So in honour of that,

as well to better inform you,
dear reader, how you can apply

of the best dressed of the night.
Making the top of pretty
much everyone’s best dressed
list was Shailene Woodley (star
of Insurgent). Her beige and
gold Valentino gown was the
perfect combination of comfort
and glamour. I like this look a

Hollywood body. Her broad
shoulders and relatively equal
waist to hip ratio can come off
as looking quite masculine,

» Ricky Gervais returns to host the Golden Globe Awards this

coming January

A many of you may have read,

comedian, actor, and director :

Ricky Gervais will be hosting
the Golden Globes this coming
January. This will be Gervais’s
fourth time at the helm of the
awards show, his last appearance
as host being in 2012. Despite his
popularity with the television
audience, Gervais is not known
for being a favoured host of
the Hollywood elite. His no-
holds-barred humor has gotten
him in trouble many times,
something that most believe lead
to American sweethearts Tina
Fey and Amy Poehler taking
over for the past four years.
Gervais is notorious for
calling out other actors and
actresses for questionable
behaviour. Case in point: in
2011, he introduced presenter
Scarlett Johansson as “...
beautiful, talented, and Jewish
apparently. Mel Gibson told me
that. He’s obsessed,” verbally
addressing the Australian actor’s
now notorious anti-Semitism
back when Gibson was still

  

: considered one of the A-list.

Perhaps one of his most

: scathing and controversial

: moments to date is when Gervais

: commented: “Also not nominated,
: I Love You Phillip Morris. Jim

: Carrey and Ewan McGregor, two

: heterosexual actors pretending to

: be gay. So, the complete opposite

: of some famous Scientologists,

: then. My lawyers helped with the

”

: wording of that joke...” alluding
: to the rumours that several well-
: known Scientologist actors such

: asTom Cruise, John Travolta,

: and Will Smith are all closeted
: homosexuals. This is due to

: L. Ron Hubbard’s publication

Dianetics: The Modern Science

: of Mental Health, in which he

: classifies homosexuality as a

: mental illness that can be cured.
: Hubbard founded the Church

: of Scientology in 1954, and

: Dianetics is the main text.

Whatever Gervais does with

: his hosting powers this year, it is
: definitely bound to be interesting.

: you won't look washed-out no

: not too far a departure from

a formal setting. Personally,

: I would have preferred if

length he would have appeared
