January was not much and there were few events that people recalled. Such as 50 Cent won the MTV Video Music Award for Best Rap Video and Best New Artist in 2003, and Billboard Song of the Year in 2003.
Another important event in this month was the Super Bowl XXXVII, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The big movies released this month were few, as expected. In fact, only two movies surpassed $100 million at the worldwide box office. These two movies were Just Married and The Recruit.
Just Married was a Romantic Comedy starring Ashton Kutcher and Brittany Murphy. Ashton Kutcher was cast in many Romantic Comedies in the early 2000s.
The Recruit was a Thriller Suspense movie starring Colin Farrell and Al Pacino. Two great actors starring in one movie.
Except for these two movies, most of the movies released this January were mediocre. Hollywood was probably cooking something for the summer season.
Speaking of Hollywood, an important award show will happen this month. It was none other than the 60th Golden Globe Awards.
The show happened at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, California. Just one month after the announcement of nominations, the Golden Globes already prepared the show for the winners and their guests.
The network that covered the show was NBC(National Broadcasting Company).
Kazir and Angelina attended the show together. Angelina was wearing a white golden Sheath, a straight gown down from the hip.
As for Kazir, well, he was wearing a grey blazer, white dress shirt, and black pants. He looked formal as always.
"I didn't expect you to wear something gold... Does that imply something?"
Kazir whispered to Angelina as they posed in front of the cameras taking their pictures. Angelina slightly smiled and leaned closer.
"I believe you will get something gold tonight." She giggled.
Kazir smiled. Well, perhaps tonight he would get the Golden Globes Thropy. The trophy only cost around $800, the trophy was made of marble and zinc and is plated in 24-karat gold. However, the value of this trophy was important for someone like Kazir who worked to get recognition in the industry.
The two gradually reached the entrance of the Golden Globes after the hustle and bustle. When the two found their seats, Angelina whispered something to Kazir.
"By the way, I'm actually wearing a golden G-string tonight."
"..." Kazir's lips became stiff just like another part of his body. He turned to Angelina, only to see the woman smiling gorgeously.
The camera was pointed at the couple and Angelina immediately used her perfect smile. As for Kazir, he realized that Angelina was making fun of him so his reaction was slow.
When he saw the camera, his smile was still stiff. As if he heard something interesting.
'... Well, the golden G-string is not that bad. I can sniff it once in a while-- Ahem, what am I thinking.'
Tonight, he lost to Angelina.
A few minutes later, Tom Cruise and Penelope Cruz appeared and sat down at the table together with Kazir and Angelina. This table was prepared for the crew of The Revenant (the people who got nominated.)
Getting invitations to Golden Globes was not that easy because the space of the venue was limited. However, CAA and both Kazir Grey and Tom Cruise had strong connections in the industry so they successfully got invitations for Angelina Jolie and Penelope Cruz.
The table next to them was also for the crew members of The Revenant, Harold Witsend was also at that table.
"I think we have a chance tonight," Tom said to Kazir.
"Confidence is a must," Kazir replied.
Their movie was now recognized by the media. God knows how many movie critics and shows they have to bribe just to get positive reviews. Well, bribe was not the best term, it should be giving gifts.
The performance of The Revenant at the box office was also great. After almost three months of screening, the movie already grossed $429.83 million worldwide.
A few minutes later, all of the guests and nominees found their seats, and the ceremony officially started. Presenters such as Tim Allen, Simon Baker, Halle Berry, and other celebrities stood on the stage to announce the winners of each category.
The winners had a few minutes to speak and express their appreciation. One by one, celebrities acquired the trophies they worked hard to get.
In the end, Jack Nicholson won the Best Actor in Motion Picture – Drama winner as Warren R. Schmidt.
Tom Cruise kept his expression while one of the cameras was pointed at him. He knew this outcome could happen so he was prepared. Showing dissatisfaction in front of the camera might affect his image. Of course, deep inside, Tom Cruise was actually sad. He didn't win the Best Actor in Motion Picture.
To make it worse, his ex-wife, Nicole Kidman, actually won the Best Actress in Motion Picture – Drama!
He witnessed how Nicole slightly gave him a smug face as she gave her speech.
He suddenly felt that his PR Team betrayed him. Because Pat Kingsley and her team were also working for Nicole Kidman. Currently, Pat Kingsley is still Nicole Kidman's agent and it seems that the female agent preferred Nicole more than Tom Cruise.
Tom thought of changing an agent for a second before erasing the idea... At last not now. He understood that the real battle was on the Academy Awards and Golden Globes was nothing but a practice game. Once he got the Oscar statue, then nothing matters.
Besides, he already won two Golden Globes Awards so no biggie.
Still, it was a bit painful. After all, he worked hard for this movie and he believed that he deserved an award.
