America Ferrera Wins Golden Globe
Hopefully, the acceptance speech of the curvaceous, Honduran femme will send a message to Hollywood about celebrating diversity, both of body type and of ethnicity.
By beating out stick figures like Marcia Cross and Mary-Louise Parker, Ferrara's win makes the most powerful of statements about the triumph of a good spirit over superficiality. Plus, her winning means that we get to see more of her purple dress. And we really like her purple dress. It's pretty.

Emmitt Smith Wins Dancing with the Stars
Last night in the Dancing with the Stars Season Finale, NFL legend Emmitt Smith beat former Saved by the Bell star, Mario Lopez.
With both competitors achieving a perfect ten for two consecutive dances on Tuesday Night, the nation was torn-- forced to vote and take sides between sitcom star AC Slater and the three-time Super Bowl champion who holds the world's all-time rushing record.
“He ‘s the cutest thing and just puts you in a good mood,” said on TDR staffer about her dance crush Emmitt.
It has always been rumored that some football players practice ballet to
become more agile and in control, but no one could have guessed that
the former Dallas Cowboy superstar could freestyle and be this good at
it.
Over the course of the Dancing season, the nation has fallen in love with the Pro sweetheart all over again. A family man whose wife and kids come to support him off the field and on the dance floor, Emmitt’s personality and chemistry with his dance partner made him the Viewer’s choice.
Emmitt Smith, Congrats! I must admit you’ve got “moves that (we) have never seen” and America loves it.
