The Golden Globes this year were sick.

So sick in fact, that co-hosts Sandra Oh and Andy Samberg decided to give out “$50,000 worth” of FREE FLU SHOTS to attendees in place of something far more enjoyable like delivery pizza.

In the unexpected bit, “trained nurses” emerged from the stage to LMFAO’s good old club banger “Shots” and made their way through the audience of nervous celebs with needles in hand. 

Samberg assured folks this is what they came for, pointing out all the sleeveless dresses in the room, and gave any anti-vaxxers in the room — who were probably seconds away from standing up and walking out — a generous head’s up. Read more…

Joining the royal family means working now and again.  

Meghan Markle did her first awards event as a soon-to-be royal on Thursday. The event was the Endeavour Fund Awards, which celebrates the achievements of wounded, injured and sick former service-personnel in the fields of sport and adventurous challenges.

Markle was just about ready to hand out some awards, when there was a small snafu with her and her co-presenter’s notes.

Genuine wonder woman Gal Gadot delivered one heck of an inspiring speech at the 23rd Critics’ Choice Awards on Thursday.

Wonder Woman director Patty Jenkins presented the Marvel star with the #SeeHer Award, which recognizes actors who present female characters with accuracy and integrity, challenging female stereotypes both on screen and within the entertainment industry.

“She didn’t do it for the glory. She didn’t do it for the fame. She’s not here for the money. She did it for us. She knew the great importance of this character and what she could mean to the world if well done,” said Jenkins before presenting the award to Gadot, who led the film that would cross the $5 billion mark at the global box office in 2017.
