The Dreamgirls cast had something to sing about that night when Eddie Murphy and Jennifer Hudson walked away with awards for best supporting actor and actress. American Idol fans may remember Hudson's remarkable voice and were now able to experience her acting skills as well.
Other winners included Meryl Streep, who has won her sixth Golden Globe, for best actress in the film The Devil Wears Prada and Sacha Baron Cohen for best actor in his film "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan."
"I saw Borat twice," said Victoria Torres, sophomore, Riverhead, N.Y. "I definitely think Sacha Baron Cohen deserved to win best actor. I think he is very talented."
Dreamgirls won best motion picture for a musical or comedy against strong nominees such as Borat, The Devil Wears Prada, Little Miss Sunshine, and Thank You for Smoking. Babel also received a Golden Globe for best motion picture of a drama.
"I was upset to see Babel win," said Arnold Craven, junior, Suffield. "I felt that it should not have won best motion picture, The Departed would have been more appropriate."
Now, for those who follow television shows religiously every week, seeing the winners for best television series was a favorite.
"I was so excited that Grey's Anatomy won for best television drama," said Allison Hunter, sophomore, Cranford, N.J. "Although I was disappointed that Patrick Dempsey did not win the award for best actor."
With Hugh Laurie taking the award for best actor for his performance on House, other big winners included Alec Baldwin for his acting in 30 Rock and America Ferrara for her role in Ugly Betty.
Even though the Golden Globes of 2007 have ended, there are still the Oscars and the Grammys to look forward to.
