Golden Globes

"Park and Recreation" funny lady Amy Poehler arrived to the Golden Globes with her two lovely hosting secret weapons.

They're nothing to laugh at.

Here's proof Sofia Vergara really is a role model for her 22-year-old "Modern Family" co-star, Sarah Hyland.

With Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie not scheduled to attend the Golden Globes, their on-call B-list doubles -- Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green -- arrived looking just like Brangelina did back at a film festival in 2009.

Accept no imitations.

Here's glammed up "Girls" creator/star Lena Dunham at the Golden Globes on Sunday -- and Hilary Swank winning her first Oscar for "Boys Don't Cry" in 2000.

They're Justin Bieber's spirit animal.

Rockin' deep cleavage, "Smash" star Katharine McPhee kicked off the Golden Globes red carpet with a leg ... a Jolie Leg.

With this year's Golden Globes just hours away, take a trip back in time and check out the best and worst looks from last year's red carpet.

Jodie Foster's sons got a good hearty laugh out of Ricky Gervais cracking a "beaver" joke about their mom at the Golden Globes -- at least Ricky thinks so.

We just caught up with the Globes host, and asked him about the double entendre -- which arguably outed Jodie -- and he said, "I don't think anyone thought it was offensive, did they?"

Well, Ricky ... we put a poll on the site and most people agreed with you -- only 21% believe the joke crossed the line.

As for Jodie's 13 and 10 year old boys hearing the shot? Check out the video ... Ricky seems to think they had a "good sense of humor" about it.

Ricky Gervais basically called Jodie Foster a lesbian at the Golden Globes tonight.

It all went down during the opening monologue, when Gervais said he had been forbidden from discussing anything related to Mel Gibson, including his recent flick, "The Beaver" ... directed by Foster.

Gervais then joked about "Jodie Foster's 'Beaver'" ... saying, "I haven't seen it myself. I've spoken to a lot of guys here, they haven't seen it either. That doesn't mean it's not any good."

Foster -- who was in the crowd -- didn't appear to be too upset by the comment. She's never publicly discussed her sexual orientation.

So we gotta ask ...

Elton John's husband David Furnish LASHED OUT at Madonna following her victory speech at the Golden Globes last night ... saying it was "embarrassing in its narcissism."

Moments after Madge won the statue for Best Original Song, Furnish went to his Facebook page and WENT OFF ... writing, "Madonna. Best song???? F**k off!!!"

For the record -- Elton was nominated in the same category and seemed pissed off in the crowd when Madonna's name was read.

Elton seemed particularly bitter towards Madonna BEFORE the awards ... telling one reporter on the red carpet he believed Madge had no "f**kin' chance" of emerging victorious.

Before ticking off Elton John's husband by winning for Best Original Song at the Golden Globes last night, Madonna got into another altercation ... by accidentally stepping all over Jessica Biel's unfortunate dress on the red carpet.

But Biel didn't feel the need to rant on and on about it on Facebook, as she and Madonna appeared to laugh off the fashion faux pas moments later.

No fighting over material, girls.

With this year's Golden Globes just hours away, take a look back at the best and worst red carpet looks from last year's red carpet fashion fiascoes.

Smiling, laughing, charming and jovial ... Ricky Gervais was all of those things when talking to our photogs this weekend. And he'll be those things again tonight when he hosts the Golden Globes and tears Hollywood a new one.

John Wayne only won one Golden Globe in his career ... and it just sold at auction for a whopping $143,400.

The award -- for the classic 1969 film "True Grit" -- was one of 700 different items (awards, costumes, documents) put up for auction by Wayne's family.

The PR company The Michael Russell Group sued the HFPA in January claiming they were lied to when the HFPA unceremoniously dumped them in 2009. But the biggest part of that lawsuit was that the MRG alleged the HFPA accepted money and gifts in exchange for Golden Globes.

Now the HFPA has filed a lawsuit of its own, saying the MRG committed fraud when they did several deals on behalf of the HFPA ... that also benefited themselves.

They also allege the MRG violated their contract by trying to to embarrass the HFPA when they "manufactured a fanciful tale of Hollywood intrigue ... with its colorful reference to 'payola.'"

The HFPA claims the MRG's allegations come "without a shred of evidence."
