Congratulations to the adorable and magnificent Kate Winslet who, in a semi-stunning turn of events, nabbed both Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress trophies at last night's Golden Globe Awards. The genuinely touched goddess even managed to give an unintentional jab to my current love/hate obsession: superdiva Angelina Jolie, whose name Winslet couldn't remember when acknowledging her fellow nominees (I believe her words were, "oh God, who's the other one?!?"). Priceless. She went on to give a tearful thanks to her two husbands: co-star and BFF Leo DiCaprio and actual hubby, "Revolutionary Road" director, Sam Mendes. What an extraordinary - to borrow a word that she used repeatedly - evening for an actress who's deserved these kinds of accolades for some time now (it even made me weep). Could the double win be repeated at the Oscars? If so, it'd be an Academy Awards first. Things just got a little more interesting...THE COMPLETE LIST OF WINNERS:
