Avatar won two major Golden Globe awards this year, including Best Director for James Cameron and Best Film.
The director seemed especially delighted with the latter win, and hugged cast member Zoe Saldana, seated near him. Zoe, for those who don't know, lent her voice to Neytiri, the alien that Sam Worthington's Avatar falls in love with. She was recently seen in the big hit Star Trek last year.
Sandra Bullock and Meryl Streep celebrate their respective Best Actress wins with a kiss. Sandra bagged her award for her brilliant work in the big hit The Blind Side, while Meryl bagged hers for her work in Julie and Julia.
Drew Barrymore, looking stunning in her skin-coloured gown, bagged an award for the television mini-series, Grey Gardens. Incidentally, her co-star Jessica Lange was also nominated in the same category.
Grey Gardens also bagged an award for the Best Mini-Series or Motion Picture made for television.
Robert Downey Jr may have played Sherlock Holmes very differently than what we have been used to, but the Globes jury obviously liked it. He bagged the Best Actor award for it.
Here, he poses with his wife Susan, who was one of the producers of Sherlock Holmes.
Actress-comedianne Mo'Nique can't get enough of her Best Supporting Actress win for her work in Precious. Though the film was nominated in three categories, it won only one.
Jeff Bridges bagged a Best Actor award for Crazy Heart, and looks set to bag a nomination for the upcoming Oscar awards. Though he has been nominated for the Globes thrice earlier -- for his work in the films, The Contender (2000), The Fisher King (1991) and Starman (1984), this is his first win.
