And the after parties

The opening of the show was a must-watch this year as Ricky Gervais is back to host, despite causing a storm of controversy last year with his acid-wit. He left no celebrity stone unturned in his opening monologue and ruffled a few feathers. Here’s the 2012 (latest) monologue fresh off the upload:

Why did Erin Watson even bother

Ew at Lea Michele’s dress. Nicole Kidman looks like a mannequin as always. Boring. Lay off the botox woman! But Love Sarah Hyland’s dress and the purple one. Stacey Keibler looks like she’s out of place. Sorry love. Not up to George Clooney arm-candy standard.
loading...
Who are all these people? I’ve never heard of most of them. Guess I should keep up.
loading...
Not a fan of the bright yellow sported by a number of those above. And not a fan of Angelina – the dress says Snow White and the collar and makeup says Wicked Queen! Very Severe.
loading...
Zooey Deschanel – looks like a can of V (the drink), was she sponsored to wear that frock shock??
loading...
Oh that’s hilarious! I actually liked her dress though.
loading...
Why are the galleries not working properly? I haven’t changed any of my settings – any techies out there? Is it me or MM?
loading...
I don’t know who Erin Wasson is, but she forgot her after-party clothes. What is it Rick says? Oh my stars.
loading...
I never, ever thought i’d say this – but after looking at the pics from the after parties……Well Done Bai Ling!!!! Looks like you’ve passed your crown to Erin Wasson for this year.
I loved Nicole’s whole put together look – particularly the gold clutch she carried.
loading...
URG!! I’m so sick of Angelina’s skeletal frame and grumpy demeanour/expression. So much to be happy about and appreciative of, yet always looks miserable!
loading...
I agree completely. What does she have to be so miserable about? To me she looks like she thinks she is above the whole thing and it’s all stupid and a waste of time to her but then why does she keep showing up to these events if she can’t manage to look even remotely happy to be there.
loading...
You forgot one!!
Seth MacFarlane at an after party . . .
loading...
Elle… the forever Princess
loading...
Does Erin Wasson actually ever wear clothing..?
loading...
I have no idea who she is but I was just about to ask why she even bothered to wear that “dress”!
loading...
These pics are too small guys, it’s hard to see the dresses properly
I’ll confess, I looked on another site and Rachel Evan Wood’s dress is actually a gorgeous deep green. George Clooney’s date is gorgeous, real old-Hollywood style, Amazonian glamour. I liked Sarah Paulson’s dress too.
loading...
Evan Rachel Wood was absolutely best dressed for me. Fishtails and feathers! On her it worked. Hair and make up were awesome. Angelina looked as if someone had stuck a pin in her bum
loading...
Natalie Portman, what were you thinking?
loading...
Year 12 called……They want their ball dress back.
loading...
Aaaahahahh!
loading...
Oh George….be still my beating heart!!
Angelina – looks too pale in that colour, Nicole – like design of dress, Natalie Portman – always looks lovely & natural, Jessica Alba – has a baby about 4mths ago & now washboard stomach!!! Kate Winslet – outfit a bit plain but love her as a person, Claire Danes – gorgeous back of the dress.
loading...
Washboard stomach? Don’t forget they’re all wearing spandex (probably in a size smaller than they actually are to suck the fat in even more.)
loading...
Love Mila Kunis, Sarah Hyland, Emma Stone and Nicole Richie and really don’t like Angelina this year too thin! Has Nicole Kidman had her boobs done? She looks great as well…
loading...
No. She just put sunscreen on them. It makes them grow you know. Hee Hee
loading...
So that’s where I’ve been going wrong, not enough sunscreen…
loading...
Zhang Wel Ping is my favourite. Just beautiful.
Lea Michele usually gets my vote, but she’d be my least favourite this time!
loading...
I don’t like what Nicole’s dress is doing to her boobs – it gives “lift and separate” a whole new meaning …
loading...
Charlize is just divine! What I would give to have THAT dress and go somewhere equally dazzling! (oh and look that amazing too!)
loading...
Stana Katic for sure. pure beauty and elegance. Her Valentino dress at the PCA‘s was amazing!
loading...
Lots of Nicole! Mila Kunis looks really unhappy in that pic and Lea Michele doesn’t look like herself there.
My favourite was Sarah Hyland, but there are lots of gorgeous dresses in this!
Not a big fan of the high necklines with sleeves that Michelle Williams and Kelly Osborne wore.
Standout to me was how many women were rocking fair skin! Yes!! Less fake tan!
Anyone else having trouble stopping the galleries from auto-playing?
loading...
agreement with the fake tan! YES! pale girls represent
loading...
Mila Kunis looks gorgeous and Sofia Vergara really rocks the hourglass. I quite like Nicole’s outfit but she looks like she’s had a boob job. Say it isn’t so, Nic. Disappointed in Kate WInslet.
I think these outfits range from the ho-hum to the what the? All in all, not the best red carpet, IMHO.
loading...
Believe it’s an optical illusion
loading...
I actually suspect Nicole has put on a bit of weight, or the dress is also creating the illusion of luscious hips as well.
loading...
Best : Angelina and Charlize
Worst: Elle McPherson and Tilda Swinton
loading...
I have to say Julianna Margulies looks sooo dowdy!
I think Zooey is cute! And George Clooney *swoon*
loading...
I agree re: Julianna Margulies. I never understand why women wear high necklines. I’ve never seen it flatter anybody.
Oh, and Clooney…..ahhhh Clooney….
loading...
I quite like a few of these dresses, but I loved 3 in particular-
Nicole Kidman looked sensational, Nicole Ritchie was lovely and Angelina Jolie was striking because she went for a very different look than usual… not my fave 3 people, but I loved their looks.
I would love to get made up and styled like these women do just once to see what I would look like!
loading...
I gave up on the pictures when I stopped recognising the names.
Love Reese Witherspoon’s and Angelina’s choices – very old Hollywood glamour.
Otherwise some pretty dowdy looks in there …
loading...
I thought Reese Witherspoon needed to get her hair done – but I loved her dress!
loading...
Kate Winslet looks like she’s got a little bit of the Botox-crazy-eyebrow, hidden slightly by her hair-do.
Anyone else..?
loading...
In my days as a stylist (snort…from the couch) I was always taught that you should never wear red on the red carpet…
That first photo of Nicole Kidman makes her look literally like a Barbie doll. Not in a good way.
And Angelina – goodness me she is a little scary….
loading...
Aah, when did I start to not have any idea who most of these people are??
loading...
I adore Tilda Swinton’s look – from the interesting hair, to the understated makeup, to the dramatic shape of the gown. Amazing and fearless. Love it.
loading...
Me too! I think she’s beautiful.
loading...
Angelina looks too thin. Reese Witherspoon looks gorgeous – I love that red dress!
loading...
And too pale. The red collar, lips and clutch jar against the white. Her skin just kind of blends into the dress. Love the design but the colour needed work.
loading...
Dianna Agron was the best dressed by far. Everyone else was blah to me.
loading...
I thought she looked like she had on a lobster suit, ha ha, but each to their own!
loading...
Love Ewan McGregor, uber handsome and clearly adores his wife!
Love Guilliana Rancic, looking gorgeous just a few moments after breast surgery!
Love Kate Winslet, always beautiful, down to earth, glamorous, funny!
Lea Michelle does look like she is ready to skate onto the ice.
In general, those images are very fuzzy. Strange angles, different distances from the camera.
loading...
Nicole Kidman – Wow !! She looks amazing !!
loading...
My faves –
* Mila Kunis – beautiful as always
* Amber Riley – love the red and the style
not so faves -
* Kristen Wiig – bad colouring for her!
* Melissa McCarthy – not a flattering outfit at all
Amanda Peet – chandelier lace? noooo
Kelly Osbourne – nanna hair and a mermaid dress
loading...
As a fat person I am disappointed in Melissa M’s gown. Black and covered up from head to toe. Amber Riley on the other hand..hubba hubba.
loading...
Poor Melissa looks like she’s off to a Ren Faire!
loading...
I agree Amber wore that dress perfectly, hubba hubba indeed!
loading...
Calista Flockhart also looks hellar dowdy in a long black dress – ageing and not always flattering!
loading...
My favourite is Diane Lane….she is all class
And I adore Heidi Klums turquoise necklace. I love anything turquoise.
Tilda has an amazing face. Her make up is simple but striking! And Amber Riley looks really pretty.

loading...
I second that motion. Diane Lane looked gorgeous.
I also love the pic of Ewan Macgregor and his wife.
loading...
Ricky Gervais naughty as usual! Love ‘im !
loading...
Ooh Gerard Butler! Divine
))
loading...
Lea Michele looks like she is chanelling Joan Collins…yuk. Also not keen on Ange’s dress, a bit Bride Of Dracula for my liking. Kellie Osbourne’s hair WTF?… not a fan of the granny grey and Star Trek want the dress back. Love Sofia Vergara – what a fantastic figure. Like Sarah Michelle Gellar – great hair and at least her dress is very different.
loading...
WOW Angelina…
Also love Claire Danes and Nicole…
loading...
Salma Hayek looks amazing. What a glamazon. Lea Michele and Zooey Deschanel are my other faves.
loading...
I think Diane Lane looks stunning and Nicole Richie looks great too.
Angelina Jolie’s arms look skeletal, she looks severe.
The bodice of Lea Michele’s dress looks like a Solid Gold dancer’s costume.
loading...
I’m a little disappointed with the celebs this year (with the exception of Sofia Vergara and Julianne Moore). I want to see Amazonian women looks impossibly glamourous, not rakes wearing their Nanna’s dresses (and hair colour. I’m looking at you Kelly O!).
Oh and I’m fairly certain that is a shot of Nic from 2011 Golden Globes.
loading...
Thanks aleced, it’s been updated

loading...
You want Amazonian…..
I Give You
SWINTON!!
loading...
She has the hair style of the night!
loading...
FABULOUS!!!
loading...
You are right, she looks phenomenal! Sometimes she is a little too kooky for me but she looks fab here!
loading...
Amber Riley is one of my favourite red carpet dressers. Not just ‘good for a bigger girl’ pity either. She wears really cool flattering stuff and styles that I would wear (I tried on a wedding dress like the one she is wearing).
But of course as well as that she does show that fashion can be just as awesome if you are a size 14 rather than a 4.
loading...
Yes! She is a stunner.
loading...
Far too much white/cream being worn, especially be people who shouldn’t go anywhere near it. Nicole Kidman, Emily Watson, Elle Macpherson, I’m looking at you.
I like Angelina’s dress, if it were on someone else. On her it looks too vampiric.
Amber Riley looks gorgeous.
loading...
That pic of Nicole’s dress is definitely from last year.
loading...
I think the picture MM has for Nicole Kidman is from last year. Although, she only seems to wear white or cream-ish colours so maybe I’m getting confused?
loading...
Whats with Michelle Williams wearing a cutesy little hairband? I think she’s a little too old for this style especially with that va va voom dress!
loading...
If Kerri Sackville can hang out with Simon Baker and prove it can be done, then I’m laying my claim for Gerard Butler NOW.
