The 2011 SAG Award Winners

The Screen Actor Guild Awards were held last night, and though I only watched the last half half hour (and Mark Wahlberg’s insufferable narcissism), the awkwardness of Giuliana Rancic’s interviewing style seeped through Twitter (I had heretofore never heard of this woman, but now understand that she’s Bill Rancic’s wife, which is a particularly sad kind of celebrity, being the spouse of a reality contestant on a fourth-rate reality show). Also, it is my understanding that the “Glee” cast briefly parted the red carpet and allowed a real woman to walk through. It looked something like this:

It is my understanding, too, that — so threatened by Hendrick’s womanhood — Lea Michelle walked off in a huff, ate six bowls of ice cream, returned, and attempted to pass the segmented flatness below her back off as an actual ass. Give it up, lady.

As for the awards themselves, more of the same. The King’s Speech was the big winner, which apparently means it has momentum going into the Academy Awards. This “momentum” is tenuous enough when you’re talking about sports — I’ll grant that a football team could perhaps have a slight psychological advantage because of a winning streak, but the idea that momentum applies to a movie title is absurd. But apparently, now that The King’s Speech has won the last two major awards, it’s momentum will boost it above The Social Network when Oscar time comes. Either that, or by the time the Oscars arrive, The King’s Speech will have peaked and the next movie on the list will be the favorite. Let’s surprise everyone, give it to Toy Story 3, tell everyone to shut the fuck up, and go home.
