      Another way for Celebrities to give each other more recognition and stroke each other's ego.
      • Fj Francois 2 months ago
        The same goes to professional sports!
      • rchar2 2 months ago

      Hilarious! Lots of typical comments from the vulgar, nasty, sad, depressed, bitter, angry, racist, jealous and BEST americans that keep Hollywood in business.
      • Sigh 2 months ago
        I'm glad SOMEBODY appreciates us! :)

      i dont really care. they are a bunch self centered??????? i dont waste my time watching them strut like they are some kind of gods.
      • Chad 2 months ago
        But yet you take the time to open this and comment on something you apparently despise. Brilliant
      • tom 2 months ago

      • whataboutme88 2 months ago
        who cares if the get to walk on the red carpet, i hope they trip and show they are just humans like the rest of us.
    • George  •  Los Angeles, California  •  2 months ago
      its always great to see celebrities talk bout the process of making indep films, ie. no trailers, no money, stealing shots, begging, etc....
      nice to also see them be more themselves!
      Great

      ....at least it makes some business for the people who make or install Carpet.

      i wish instead of holding another party, they took that same amount of money that they spent on this party and donated it to charity.
      • Zarman46360 2 months ago
        Where are the "occupadios" when ya need them..OH that's right don't bit the hand that feeds ya.
      • Jason 2 months ago
        Giving to charity is great but you really have to be careful these days b/c you don't know where the money is going or to who
      • Fj Francois 2 months ago
        The same goes to the "Grammys" .
    • James  •  Lafayette, Louisiana  •  2 months ago
      who gives a crap. they holler about environment and the like and show up in limos etc. etc. come in a horse and buggy with the pollution being the back end of the horse and show some authenticity. or ride side saddle with your gown and whatever. think i'll go look in the mirror and award myself. no different.
    • Dorothy  •  Miami, Florida  •  2 months ago
      gOOD GRIEF....ANOTHER "award" show. Just give reruns of All In The Family or Carol Burnett.
      Give the money spent on "celeb" outfits to Charity and know you've done something worthwhile. Celebrity worship is so sick. How aboit Teacher awards instead.
    • Sigh  •  Las Vegas, Nevada  •  2 months ago
      A tidal wave would humble these egomaniacs!
    • Reeznutz  •  Green Bay, Wisconsin  •  2 months ago
      I pretend to be someone else... PAY ME
    • so  •  Atlanta, Georgia  •  2 months ago
      I just had a huge YAWWWWWWN. This is so boring and useless. I was curious thinking it was going to show something interesting. It was a bunch of people saying useless stuff, WOW.
    • Rurik  •  Los Angeles, California  •  2 months ago
      Bunch of Eurocentric A-holes!
    • Buff Puff  •  2 months ago
      more WORTHLESS celeb #$%$ from the worthless yahoo writers
    • Jeffrey H  •  Orlando, Florida  •  2 months ago
      The populace of the human race ought to be giving these narcissistic performers the finger! It amazes me how many accolades singers and actors give each other! There are way too many asinine award shows!
    • Zarman46360  •  South Bend, Indiana  •  2 months ago
      "Thank you ALL for loving ME!!!!"
    • Lakes Lady  •  2 months ago
      You are joking right???? ANOTHER award party? How narcissistic ARE these millionaire freaks?
      • John 2 months ago
        This is to celebrate Independent film and Independent filmmakers, which is way more important than the Oscars in my opinion.
      • Scott 2 months ago
        These guys are definitely NOT millionaires!
    • Big Ed  •  2 months ago
      Looks like a hooker and pimp convention to me.
      Either that or a socialist / marxist convention.
    • Jason Stone  •  2 months ago
      Just give EVERY single movie an award already and do away with the award shows.
    • GEORGE PORDGE  •  2 months ago
      Too bad that they can't go back to the glory days of Hollywood when actors and actresses were expected to really act. Gregory Peck, John Wayne, Lana Turner. Gone with the Wind-Sound of Music-To kill a Mockingbird, etc. I did enjoy The Help, The Descendants, and War Horse this year.
    • Xtastic  •  2 months ago
      Celebrities deserve all the awards and money they get after all they work over 35 hours a week pretending to be people like us.

      Isn't it great
