Glamorous Night
The evening host Ricky Gervais took on the celebrities to the core from the hostless Oscars, sexual predators, to Felicity Huffman and more. The evening was filled with Ellen DeGeneres getting the Carol Burnett Award and a few our favorite shows took home awards:
L’Oréal make-up has been a staple on the red carpet for so many years. Being in this industry and working with so many other pros we have known that the quality of L’Oréal make-up is superb. We all own and use so many of these products for our Hollywood celebrity clients. The key to our clients and the red carpet are as follows. It’s all about the first foundation that looks like skin, but covers imperfections, and does not make the skin crack or look aged, or dry. Tough one right? Well here enters L’Oréal True Match Lumi. Problem no more, 40 percent of water and vitamin C, they know how to make it happen ladies. My clients, I work with for fashion shows and the red carpet will tell you I create magic. The magic is in the foundation and this foundation is outstanding. 5-star red carpet worthy. Hollywood glowing healthy skin, that’s what I create with this must-have product. The shades are so beautiful, colors are available for all skin types. Never pulls orange after it’s been on the skin, and never settles into fine lines.
Glowing on the Red Carpet
Glamourous Skin
It literally melts into the skin mimicking your own skin but better. Giving you that coverage but not sacrificing the look you are trying to achieve on the red carpet, which is healthy fresh flawless skin. The consistency of this foundation is fabulous and deserves its own Golden Globe. My celebrity clients think I have the magic, but the magic is in this product. It’s a definite must for everyone. Affordable for all which is even better. Like icing on the cake. The next favorite I used for my clients at the Golden Globes show is L’Oréal Pro Glo corrector and concealer, another 5-star red carpet Golden Globe worthy must-have product. Now, you are probably thinking how is that possible for something at such a low price point? Ok this one everyone can relate to. The under-eye area is a very delicate area that is the first to see the signs of aging, dark circles, puffiness, and crepey loose skin. Well, that cannot happen on awards night.
Red Carpet Glamourous
Celebrity queens in front of the cameras, pictures, press, interviews. No time for those annoying imperfection. Here enters, my hero. Saves the day, it is 14-hour to wear, and buildable. L’Oréal Pro Glo correcting and concealer. It’s so hydrating and the texture is so superb that it never looks heavy and dry under the eye. It also photographs beautiful, matching the rest of the skin. My clients do not have the dreaded raccoon eyes. It is so hard to find a product to do this without settling again into lines, especially under the eye. Well, look no further. I am bringing Hollywood looks to all of you beautiful ladies out there, by sharing my tips on things I use on the shows. Oh yes, the best part, price. Anyone can have this item as well. Major affordable, but the quality is impeccable. Use this product with a flat concealer brush, and don’t tug. Press outward gently as you apply. Because if you have puffiness And you press outward only, you will help to move that fluid out of the area it likes to hang out in. Key point guys. Oh yes, my queens, this product is also great to highlight cheekbones, inner corner of eyes and tip of the nose. For the real Hollywood glam glow. These are my choices and must-haves to start out your 2020 to a new younger-looking you. P.S. This is what I’m wearing in my photo featured here. God bless, your all-stars your all beautiful. The Golden Globe goes to All of us. Until my next review, be the beautiful best you are. Best always. Gia Klime.

Vegan Dinner for the 77th Golden Globes. Setting a dynamic dinner for the elite of Hollywood is always a challenge. This year for the first time the Golden Globes has asked the Beverly Hilton chefs to create a completely plant-based menu.
Menu Golden Globe Awards
Vegan Menu Decision
The last year we have seen an increase in plant-based food from the Impossible and Awesome Burger. “For the first time the meal served to our guests will be entirely plant-based, a way to focus awareness on the need to countenance sustainable lifestyles as our world moves towards climate and environmental insecurity.” The menu has no meat or dairy in any dish. The Golden Globes takes the challenge and brings a star-studded menu.
King Oyster Mushrooms
Vegan Dinner
Vegan Menu
The celebrities attending the Golden Globes this year will find a glamourous filling dinner. The menu includes:
The appetizer is chilled golden beet soup. This is prepared with shaved candy-striped beets, citrus oil, pistachio, micro chervil, and amaranth
The entrée will be “scallops” made from king oyster mushrooms, served with wild-mushroom risotto, roasted baby purple, and green brussels sprouts, globe carrots, and pea tendrils.
The dessert is a “Vegan Opera Dome,” with choco brilliance, praline gunaja crumble, caramelized hazelnuts, and passion crispy.
Vegan Menu Changes
Executive pastry chef Thomas Henzi discusses making a beautiful cake without the use of gelatin, eggs, milk, or butter. This is a completely plant-based pastry. “It is a bit different when coming to pastries. You have to always learn new things,” Henzi states.
Executive chef Matthew Morgan says, “It is exciting to be a part of it. The statement that it is making is extremely important.” The menu looks to be as fancy as years past and the celebrities should have plenty to eat and drink.
Menu Golden Globe Awards
Vegan Drink Menu
Moet is here again with mini champaign bottles for the red carpet arrivals (1500 in total). The official drink is the Moet Golden Hour. This cocktail (500 will be served) is created with Belvedere vodka, Moet, pineapple juice, and simple syrup. 125 bottles finish off the Moet champaign at the Golden Globes.

This film is a celebration of love and a reminder of the struggles facing many African American women in this country. Regina King envelopes this struggle and love to win the Oscar® for Best Supporting Actress.
Regina King and her mother, Gloria.

Supporting Actress
Actress in a Supporting Role
Regina King brings her mother to the Oscars®. She says about her mother being there, “I feel like kind of like one of those full circle moments because so much of the character Sharon Rivers was mapped or inspired by my mother and my grandmother.” She gets teary-eyed as she reflects and says thanks to these women.
She goes on to say, ” James Baldwin birthed this baby and Barry, you nurtured her, you surrounded her with so much love and support, so it’s appropriate for me to be standing here because I’m an example of what it looks like when support and love is poured into someone.” That is truly was. She is wearing an Oscar® winning Oscar De La Renta white gown.
This film is important in the narrative that there remains a divide in this country. We have moved forward and backward throughout the 400 years since the first slave being brought to this country. King states about winning, “But it’s just a reminder of when Hattie McDaniel won. She didn’t win just because black people voted for her. She won because she gave an amazing performance.”
King did present a strong woman fighting for her family and her dreams. Kings said about working on the film, “When you have men and women working together, pretty amazing things happen.”
She continues with, “I feel like I’ve had so many women that have paved the way, are paving the way, and I feel like I walk in their light, and I also am creating my own light.”

Writers
Spike Lee is truly thrilled to win this first Oscar® for Best Adapted Screenplay. He states, “My grandma who saved 50 years of Social Security checks to put her first grandchild – she called me Spikie Poo – she put me through Morehouse College and NYU Grad Film. NYU!” This is a long time in coming for Spike Lee. The screenplay writers include David Rabinowitz, Charles Wachtel, and Kevin Willmott.
Willmott states, at Northern Arizona University, “Telling a character’s story you have to fictionalize the stories. Often as a writer, you do that with your own life experiences.” The story does reflect some personal experiences in his life.
Lee concludes the acceptance speech saying, “Let’s all be on the right side of history. Make the moral choice between love versus hate. Let’s do the right thing! You know I had to get that in there!”

Oscars presents foreign film Foreign Films symposiums. Providing insight into the directors’ Oscar-nominated films.
Foreign Film Theatre
Gathering Saturday to attend the evening Nominees Symposium we found ourselves surrounded by many who attend every year. One family is attending for the 24th year, they did miss the first symposium.
Sitting in the theatre the white screen where the top films in history screened. Today the top foreign film directors surround me. The stories fill the sound of people’s stories and lives. Taking in all the emotions that the directors have developed. It is a true honor.
Host Academy Governor Mark Johnson during the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ Oscar Week: Foreign Language Films
This is the 60th year for the Foreign Film category;La Strada states, “It took The Academy 27 years to realize that not all great filmmaking is American.” Mark Johnson, Academy governor representing the Producers Branch and the chair of the Foreign Language Film Award Executive Committee, stated, “there is a depth in this category, foreign films, they are becoming more accessible. It is not necessary to make an American film.” This year the Academy nominated 5 films from 85 submitted foreign films. The nominted films areTanna, Land Of Mine, Tori Erdmann, The Salesman, and A Man Called Ove.
Hannes Holm A Man Called Ove Foreign Language Film Oscars
Foreign Film A Man Called Ove
A Man Called Ove brings the sense of losing a lifelong partner to reality. This may be something many will experience in their lifetime, but not understand until that time. Hannes Holm, The Director, talks about taking a novel to the film he says, “He felt like a thief taking the book story to film. The version is his not the author’s version of the book. Frederick Morheden, the novelist, told him yes!”
The story is of a husband losing his wife. The struggle with disorder and absence of her presence he becomes desperate with the struggle. He turns to enforcing association rules and gives up on life. He develops a most unlikely relationship.
Holm’s discussed the film with us after the symposium. He feels that each time the movie is different. He believes that he is only fifty percent of a film. The audience is the other fifty percent. Holms is htrilled to be theatre where some of the world’s greatest films are screened.
This film’s nomination and awards also include: “Nominated – Best Foreign Language Film and Best Achievement for Makeup & Hairstyling (Love Larson & Eva von Bahr), 89th Academy Awards® Winner – Best European Comedy, 29th European Film Awards Winner – Best Actor (Rolf Lassgård), 2016 Seattle International Film Festival Golden Space Needle Award, Winner – Audience Award, Best Actor (Rolf Lassgård), Best Makeup (Love Larson & Eva Von Bahr), 2016 Guldbagge Awards, Winner – Audience Award, 2016 Mill Valley Film Festival & 2016 Traverse City Film Festival Winner – Audience Award for Best Film, 2016 Scottsdale International Film Festival.” This film may be viewed here Amazon, iTunes, Google Play, Microsoft, and ViaPlay.
Academy Governor Mark Johnson with directors of the Oscar® nominated foreign film “Tanna,” Bentley Dean and Martin Butler
Foreign Film Tanna
Tanna, a South Pacific island, is a story about the Yakel Tribe. The love interest of Wawa may change the tribe’s world for generations to come. The film is cast by the tribe leaders. Its presentation is in their native language. Martin Butler and Bentley Dean, film directors, state, “This was a collaboration film.” JJ acted as the language and cultural interpreter for the film.
The film did present many hurdles. The island has no electricity. The filming and editing with solar power. Casting was done by tribal leaders. They did have a few issues the almost imploded the film. The tribe members had never seen a film. The crew created a natural warm. the environment for a cast that did not even have a sense of filmmaking to be comfortable and present their best acting. They filmed a lot to ensure a good presence. The story had no written script. The story is a collaborated dialog based on each day shooting best. There were no rehearsals.
The world primer was with tribe. The chief said, “This is our Movie.” This film’s awards also include: Awards: AACTA Award for Best Original Music Score, Special Mention for Feature-length Fiction Film Nominations: AACTA Award for Best Direction. You can view the film on Amazon.
Director of the Oscar® nominated foreign film “Land of Mine”, Martin Zandvliet
Foreign Film Land of Mine
Land Of Mine, Under Sandet original title, is based on actual events after World War II German prisoners of war. They are ordered to clear over 2 million land mines on the Denmark shoreline.
Director, Martin Zandvloet, “This film is about how we view human beings. We need to be more aware of viewing human being’s as individuals. I am grateful to the editor for his insightful talent. The bricklayer he finds walking on set with a cup of coffee is the best job.”
This film awarded Best Canadian Film at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2015. It won Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor. The film also won Best Danish Film at the Bodil Award plus more. You can view this film here iTunes, GooglePlay, MicroSoft, & Via Play.
Director of the Oscar® nominated foreign film “Toni Erdmann”, Maren Ade
Foreign Film Toni Erdmannthe
Toni Erdmannthe, a film about a jokester father and his very busy CEO daughter. He hires someone to play his daughter. He wonders who is going to pay that bill.
The film has received criticism regarding the length. Director, Maren Ade,states, “Took notes after premiere and was afraid to make those changes. She stewed a few days but left it.” The comedy is character driven. The play with the dentures developed from a set that was a gift while the director was a waitress.
Foreign Film The Salesman
The Salesmanis about a couple begins performing Death of A Salesman their relationship begins to change. Asghar Farhadi, from Iran, was not in attendance at the symposium. He made a choice to stay away after the recent ban by the US President put in place a travel ban. He did send a message that he was honored to be nominated and had a lot of respect for the Academy. All directors present signed a letter in solidarity with Farhadi.
We had the honor of meeting actor Brian Avery after the event. He is thrilled for Oscars week. He found the films to be inspirational in talent and film. You can learn more about Avery’s acting career here.
The symposium provides a great insight to the processes of filmmaking and how it works world wide. Many film makers receive funding from their governments. Looking forward to the announcement at the 89th Oscars for Foreign Language Film 60th winner.
