Get ready: The red carpet realness starts going down this weekend.
***
Just when you had gotten over that post-New Year’s Eve Champagne bloat, a whole bunch of reasons to sidestep any “sober January” nonsense and pop more bottles of bubbly are coming your way faster than you can say “Opa!” while trying to not take a pressurized cork to the face.
That’s right, kids: Awards season is back in all its red carpet, ripped envelope, shiny-statute-and-overlong-acceptance-speech glory.
With things kicking off in earnest this weekend with the National Society of Film Critics Awards and Golden Globes hosted by oddball Emmy co-presenter duo Sandra Oh and Andy Samberg, I figured a little pop culture cheat sheet was in order to help you keep pace with all the agony, ecstasy and “are you serious?” moments from La La Land to London (and back) over the next seven weeks.
Keep it handy, and watch this space for hot takes on all the Hollywood happenings!
