A former nominee of the prestigious Golden Globe Awards has revealed insider details about the annual star-studded event. As the 83rd edition of the renowned ceremony approaches on January 11 at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles, Hollywood’s top personalities are gearing up to compete for the highly coveted accolades.
Justin Shenkarow, who attended the Golden Globes alongside his Picket Fences colleagues, reminisced about the glamour and excitement of the event. With his show garnering multiple nominations, including Best Television Series nods in 1994 and 1995, Justin highlighted the thrill of being part of the celebration.
In an interview with the Mirror, Justin praised the impeccable organization of the event but emphasized the allure of the post-ceremony parties. Despite his young age during his first attendance at 15 and 16, Justin expressed his enthusiasm for the lively post-awards festivities hosted by various networks and studios across Los Angeles.
Describing the pre-awards routine, Justin mentioned the preparation sessions at the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills before arriving at the ceremony. He vividly recounted the red carpet experience with paparazzi capturing moments and fans cheering along the way, creating a surreal yet exhilarating atmosphere.
Inside the venue, Justin noted the presence of a lively bar area to ensure a relaxed atmosphere among attendees. He humorously mentioned the presence of “professional seat fillers” who swiftly occupied empty seats during breaks as guests mingled and networked around the venue.
Reflecting on the dining experience and the extravagant goodie bags, Justin shared his memories of being seated near Quentin Tarantino and the amusing exchange that followed. Despite the passage of time, Justin’s recollections of the event remain vivid, including interactions with industry luminaries and the bustling atmosphere of the after-parties.
