The Golden Globes are given out each year by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. The awards are sort of a cross between the Oscars and the Emmys, with awards honoring accomplishments in both motion pictures and television.

In the past, the Golden Globes award shows had taken place at various locations around town (including the Hollywood Palladium), but in recent years they seem to have settled down permanently at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills (a hotel originally owned by the late showman Merv Griffin, creator of "Jeopardy" and "Wheel of Fortune.")

The Golden Globe nominations are usually announced just before Christmas (providing extra publicity for the studio's important holiday movie-going season), and the awards themselves are usually given out a month later, on a weekend in mid-January.

2007 presenters included Tom Hanks, Dustin Hoffman, Cameron Diaz, Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Lopez, Reese Witherspoon, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tim Allen, Hilary Swank, Salma Hayak, Steven Spielberg, Hugh Grant, Drew Barrymore, Jake Gyllenhaal, Sharon Stone, Geena Davis, Courtney Cox, James Wood, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Vanessa Williams, Terrence Howard, Felicity Huffman and John Stamos.

The 2005 show was also at the Beverly Hilton. Presenters included Halle Berry, Meryl Streep, Al Pacino, Samuel L. Jackson, Renee Zellweger, Charlize Theron, Diane Keaton, Patricia Arquette, Megan Mullally, Will Ferrell, Tim Robbins and Naomi Watts.

In 2004, presenters included Jim Carrey, Jennifer Lopez, Jack Nicholson, Nicole Kidman, Keanu Reeves, Jennifer Aniston, Elijah Wood, Meryl Streep, Antonio Banderas, Renee Zellweger, Robin Williams, Ellen DeGeneres, Ashton Kutcher, Richard Gere, Queen Latifah, Gwen Stefani, Sarah Jessica Parker and Jim Belushi.

There are 24 different categories, but unlike the Oscars, the Golden Globes give separate movie awards for "Best Drama" and "Best Musical or Comedy." The awards show is televised live around the world on NBC.

Since they are the first of the major movie awards to be given out, the Golden Globes are seen by many as a bellwether for the Oscars. As a result, many of Hollywood's biggest stars show up at the Beverly Hilton for the awards ceremony. And many celebs seems to enjoy the Golden Globes show more than the Oscars; perhaps because the pressure isn't quite as great, perhaps because the show includes dinner - but they say it's just more fun.

There are a limited number of bleacher seats set up in front of the Beverly Hilton Hotel for fans who want to catch a good glimpse of their favorite stars arriving on the red carpet before the show. However, there's a big catch. Unlike the Oscars, this seating isn't free. And they only sell bleacher tickets to hotel guests, as part of a hotel room/tickets package priced from $1,800 to $2,600 (with the $2,600 getting you seats in the front row of the bleachers). Apparently, there is no place (other than the bleachers) where people can just stand for free and watch the arrivals. So, your only option is to book a room at the Hilton - or forget about it.

But believe it or not, in early September, the Hilton said they were already completely sold out, and they were taking names for a waiting list. So next time around contact them early - before August, and make reservations. Or else get your name on the waiting list and say a prayer.

The stars start arriving at around 3:30 p.m,.

In 2000/2001, presenters included Tom Cruise, Denzel Washington, Edie Falco & James Gandolfini (of "The Sopranos"). Kevin Spacey presented Al Pacino with the year's Cecil B. DeMille Award. The list of 2001 winners & nominees can be found here.

Highlights of the 2001 Golden Globes: "Gladiator'' was honored as best drama. "Almost Famous" won as best best movie musical or comedy. Renee Zellweger won as best actress in a musical or comedy (for "Nurse Betty") and George Clooney won as best actor (for "O Brother, Where Art Thou?"). Julia Roberts won for best actress in a drama (for "Erin Brockovich'') and Tom Hanks as best actor in a drama (for "Cast Away.")

In their TV categories. "The West Wing" won as best TV drama, and its star Martin Sheen won as best actor in a TV drama. "Sex and the City'' won as best TV comedy. Sara Jessica Parker ("Sex and the City'") and Kelsey Grammer ("Frasier") won awards for best actor and actress in a comedy.

Over the years, those waiting outside the Hilton got to see a parade of stars that included: Tom Hanks, Meg Ryan, Jim Carrey, John Travolta, Jack Nicholson, Gillian Anderson & David Duchovny, Meryl Streep, Robin Williams, Jodie Foster, Gwyneth Paltrow, Steven Spielberg, Calista Flockhart, Cameron Diaz, Robert Duvall, Sharon Stone, George Clooney, Matt Damon, Gregory Peck, Ed Harris, Mel Gibson, Sandra Bullock, Julia Roberts, Dustin Hoffman, "Titanic" stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet & Gloria Stuart, Jack Lemmon, Jerry Seinfeld, Helen Hunt, Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise & Nicole Kidman, Clint Eastwood, Sally Field, Melanie Griffith, Michael Douglas, Steve Martin, Laurence Fishburne, Emma Thompson, Kurt Russell & Goldie Hawn, Tim Allen, Samuel L. Jackson, George C.

To reach the Beverly Hilton from Rodeo Drive, go south on Rodeo to Wilshire Boulevard. Turn right (west) on Wilshire, and go about a half mile west to Santa Monica Boulevard.
