We’re halfway through awards season, with the 18th annual Screen Actors Guild awards taking place in Los Angeles today and here are 5 things you need to know about the event.
1. The awards go to both film and television actors and are nominated by their acting peers.
2. The most interesting thing about the awards this year will be the pre-Oscars showdown between Brad Pitt and George Clooney for Best Actor.
3. The acronym (SAG) sounds a bit like the place where elasticated pants go to die.
4. Melissa McCarthy should definitely win the Best Supporting Actor for that bathroom scene in Bridesmaids.
5. The best bit is the red carpet. Well, it is. Take a look at the gallery below.
(We’ll be adding more pics as they come in, so check back for all the red carpet looks).

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie
And if that wasn’t enough red carpet for you, here’s the 32 must-see looks of the week:

Diane Kruger

Too much black! Where is the colour!!! Is it just me or is Angelina Jolie looking very fragile?
loading...
loving the looks by:
Michelle Williams
Emily Blunt
Cameron Diaz (looking very Jackie O)
and Jennifer Aniston looks so similar to how she always dresses I think its boring, with a body like that why stay in black!

I miss the days of Bjork in the swan dress and Celine Dion in the backwards tux.
Damn stylists making people so well styled!!
loading...
Cameron Diaz looks beautiful with her new do and love, love, love the dress.
Rose Byrne’s pantsuit is too funny!

Brad and Angelina look like wax figures in that first photo. Good to see Angie in her trademark black.. she looks good

All women “of a certain age” should channel Helen Mirrin, my god that woman always looks stunning!
Love that Jayne Lynch’s dress had pockets. But I have to say, I’m rather underwhelmed in general.

Yikes, the 80′s called and they want their frocks back….
How can so many people, with so much access and assistance wheel out some of these shockers?!
Having said that, Rose Byrne, I have a major girl crush on you
Angelina Jolie, you are quite possibly the most beautiful woman in the world, but why the heck do you have to look so miserable?

Man Octavia Spencer just gets it right – rarely boring, always classy and flattering. Her stylist knows what she’s doing!
loading...
I totally agree…stunning!
loading...
Rose Byrne. Knocks it out of the park. In a white jumpsuit. Which proves that anything is possible.
loading...
Agree- she looks fab!
loading...
Ack, no!! Too stumpifying.
loading...
Did Busy Phillips forget where she was going ? Not a fan of that at all !
loading...
I agree. Looks like Granny’s curtains!
And Madonna needs to get her roots done! I don’t understand why she waits so long.
loading...
I think they all look pretty boring, except Michelle Williams and Octavia Spencer…stunning.
