People Magazine Gives Awards More Ridiculous than People’s Choice, Golden Globes

Share

More back slapping and self-congratulating: People magazine gave out awards tonight in Hollywood. This is why I do not live in Hollywood. Kate Hudson was named Role Model of the Year. She’s great, don’t get me wrong, but Kate Hudson divorced once, twice? Children by one, two different guys? Not one decent movie since “Almost Famous” in 2000? Jennifer Aniston got Movie Performance of the Year for an actress. This is for the dreadful “Cake.” She was better than Julianne Moore, Marion Cotillard, Reese Witherspoon, Emily Blunt or Patricia Arquette? Really? I mean, I am a Jennifer Aniston fan, but this is ridiculous. Why don’t they just call these various awards something like Publicists Promote Whoever Is in Town. Jennifer Lopez is Triple Threat? Like blackmail, murder, kidnap? I’m starting to think we deserve whatever Kim Jong Un is thinking.
