Brad and Angelina had a big night at the Globes. Well, neither of them won anything. But they expended a lot of energy not talking to Ryan Seacrest on the red carpet, and that had to take it out of them. While I found the long stretch of that telecast where he chased them around and they pretended he didn't exist AMAZING in the moment, and I think we all kind of enjoyed seeing poor Ryan get it handed to him a bit, in retrospect it kind of made Brangelina look a wee bit douchey. I mean, come on: it's SEACREST. He's harmless. He doesn't even get to go inside the hotel. Throw the kid a bone. That way, later, you can congratulate yourself on being so gracious and being smug is really fun. Unlike your outfits, I feel:
Okay, okay: Brad looks great. He looks like...Brad Pitt. Angie, on the other hand....meh. You know? A particularly wise reader emailed us on Monday and pointed out that while the tabloids seem to think that Angelina and Aniston are the most interesting people in the world, they certainly don't dress like it. And I am inclined to agree. I mean, should not Angelina Jolie, one of the most beautiful women alive, who is living, by all accounts, a very interesting life, be able to engender more than a "....meh"? Also -- I'LL JUST SAY IT -- I think this dress makes her look kind of boxy. SHE'S NOT. SHE'S ANGELINA JOLIE. SHE'S HOT. I mean, I get that she is More Interested In Saving The Children or whatever than her outfits on a day-to-day basis and I agree that's probably the right order of priorities, but I still sort of want to see her sweep into places looking magically gorgeous in, like....a color? You know? Why can't she just give me what I want? I'M the Seacrest over here, all chasing after her being like, "ANGIE, ANGIE, PLEASE TRY A NICE PEACOCK BLUE? OR A YELLOW? HOW'S ABOUT A NICE YELLOW? HELLO? HELLO? HEY!" Sigh. Alas.
