Lots o’ celebs made it to the Hollywood Foreign Press luncheon including, but not limited to, Gerard Butler, Elizabeth Moss, Lea Michele and Mark Wahlberg. Even Kevin Bacon turned up! One name that was decidedly not on the list was Ricky Gervais. Oh well. He was the only interesting thing from last years awards. Unfortunately there are a lot of uppity people that can’t take a joke or laugh at themselves.

One of the highlights of the event was giving out charity money, which they did pretty well – $1.5 million dollars went to various groups involved in film preservation, at risk youth and higher education. And all the celebs get a free lunch and a chance to promote their films and acting abilities to the people that vote for the Golden Globe nominations. It’s all win win!
