Golden Globe Awards Ceremony Canceled!

Tuesday, January 8th, 2008
Golden Globe Awards

This year’s Golden Globes ceremony will be canceled after actors vowed to boycott it in support of striking Hollywood.

On Monday, the L.A. Times website reported that the traditional red carpet (!), televised dinner and prize presentation had been canceled in favor of a basic press conference and a scaled back red carpet event instead. This was later confirmed by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA).

The Golden Globes were supposed to be held in Beverly Hills on Sunday. The HFPA reached a compromise that allows the winners to receive their awards on Sunday informally. The winners will then be announced in a TV press conference instead of the usual star-studded ceremony.

The writers have been on strike since November 5th.
