Next month Amy Poehler and Tina Fey are hosting their second consecutive Golden Globe Awards and I think it’s safe to say that all the good things I can remember about last year pretty much come from this pair. If my Twitter feed is anything to go by then award season is in full flow and it’s the Golden Globes that I’m looking forward to the most thanks to the hosts, the copious amounts of booze on the tables and the combined TV/film factor. And hey a trailer has been released and it’s awesome (you can see it at the bottom). Amy Poehler is also gracing the cover of the holiday issue of Paper magazine.
Poehler discusses a whole host of topics including the selfie explosion – “the amount of Instagram selfies seems crazy out-of-control” – what it’s like to be on a show with a unstable future, a New York memory of Lou Reed and her first festive season at SNL and what an amazing/surreal experience that was
“I remember a Christmas show with Elijah Wood… So you say goodnight onstage, and then you run really fast, and put ice skates on, and you get to ice skate at Rockefeller Center. And that was the first time I ever: 1) skated at Rockefeller Center, and 2) skated along with 10 other people that were my friends. It was snowing, it was Christmas and the day before, we all got to go to the The Lord of the Rings premiere. I was a big fan of the films. And I remember thinking, ‘Oh, this is totally awesome.'”
As with most things Amy Poehler related the interview is incredibly irreverent, while also hitting on some touching notes too. To read the whole piece head here.
The super cute cat hat on the cover photo is from Eugina Kim and the coat is Louis Vuitton.
