I don't know if everyone took note, but there seemed to be a rather large no show population of the nominees. Does anyone know any reason why some people were not there?

James Franco
Frances McDormand
Rebecca Hall
Philip Seymour Hoffman
Judi Dench (I know she normally doesn't go)
Kevin Spacey
Dianne Wiest (I believe it was closing night of her show?)
Sean Penn
Gabriel Byrne
Mariska Hargitay

Well, i don't know. it was odd so many people were absent. It was odd that Sean Penn didn't show up.

Doesn't Judi Dench live in England? maybe she didn't want to fly out for the globes?

I just read in another thread that Mariksa has a collaposed lung, maybe she was in the hospital or at home resting?

I know that i didn't see Katie Holmes at all, which was odd since Tom Cruise was nominated.

Katie was on a flight coming to LA after her last Broadway show, All My Sons, to join Tom for the after parties.

Milk cast Sean Penn, Josh Brolin, & James Franco probably didn't WANT to show up since the film wasn't nominated for Best Drama.

That's actually what I thought but wouldn't that have been a bit immature and obvious?

With the exception of 2004, I believe Sean Penn didn't show up to award shows he was nominated for very often.


For Your Grammy Consideration:
Kristin Chenoweth - in all eligible categories
