2007 Independent Spirit Awards

Hollywood was not only able to squeeze another big awards show in this weekend, but it had quite a turnout. The Spirit Awards celebrate everything in independent movies that otherwise may be looked over by the box office or other award shows. This year the big winner was Little Miss Sunshine, which took home four prizes including best picture! Oscar nominee Ryan Gosling also won for best leading actor. Nothing beats an Oscar but we're sure a Spirit Award takes the sting out of losing! Don't forget to check out the complete list of winners from the evening.

The young and hot and hip and adorable hit up the red (blue, how innovative!) carpet of the Independent Spirit Awards pre-Oscars this weekend. While it may not have been the big event, it certainly played host to many of our favorite young stars and starlets (but seriously, Bilson was there...inner celebration). Also, I feel dirty for saying this, but Josh Hartnett's glasses are kind of growing on me. The stache, though, not so much.

We may be about the Oscars this weekend but that doesn't mean we won't give you a taste of what else is going on. Check out some of the fabulous people who were celebrating the Spirit Awards, which are for all those wonderful independent movies that were made this year. We plan on sharing many more pics from the event but until after the Oscars you're just gonna have to enjoy these favorite few including Rachel Bilson (can she get any cuter?), Winona Ryder looking very friendly with Josh Hartnett and a nice clean cute looking Ryan Gosling (sans Rachel McAdams which we hope is not the case at the Oscars). Heath Ledger and his possible wife Michelle Williams were also present. Michelle proudly sported her new super short hair which is clearly the latest Hollywood trend.
