You dissin' Paz? Come on! No one pouts or babytalks better. She's the Jennifer Tilly of her generation!
I'm gonna see you get that Golden Globe Award,
For both of your globes.
You can put them in my face just any old time.
Oh, those golden globes, they ain't none better,
I gotta have 'em both, 'cause they both go together
Gonna see you get that Golden Globe Award.

Drink if a celeb has to rush back to their seat after sneaking away for a smoke break.
Finish the bottle if they're still rushing back as their category is announced.
Drain your entire liquor cabinet if they win.
Dig that Zooey Deschanel bashing. Meow!
What if Gervais' reference to his athiesm isn't smug? What then?
If Sofia Viagra wins, we all win.
Paz de la Huerta is not our generation's Jennifer Tilly because Jennifer Tilly is sane.
Also, those are a lot of shot requirements. I'm Asian. I will die.
