The Golden Globes Live!

Welcome to our very first live-blogging event on The Flickcast.

If you have any comments to make during the ceremony, feel free to use our comments section at the end of the post.  Now, let’s talk Golden Globes!

So our first arrival that we will comment on is….Fergie.

Shannon 6:05  It looks like Fergie is pregnant or had some work done

Shannon 6:09 She looks gorgeous. Very stunning.
