You would think the stars were coming for a new musical video of Rihanna’s Umbrella as many of them came with their umbrellas in the rainfall and walking carefully on the drenched red carpet, but the damp weather could not diminish the bright lights of the golden moments at the 67th Golden Globe Awards seen by millions of people in more than 160 countries worldwide.
Meryl Streep won the Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture – Comedy or Musical for “Julie & Julia”.
The phenomenal Avatar repeated history for James Cameron at the Golden Globe Awards winning the highly coveted awards for the best picture and best director as he did with his classic Titanic 12 years ago. He beat his ex-wife Kathryn Bigelow‘s war thriller on Iraq The Hurt Locker and four other nominated films.
“‘Avatar’ asks us to see that everything is connected, all human beings to each other, and us to the Earth. And if you have to go four and a half light years to another, made-up planet to appreciate this miracle of the world that we have right here, well, you know what, that’s the wonder of cinema right there, that’s the magic,” Cameron said.
