Golden Globes Trend: Pumped-Up Ponytails

Jaime Richards — Sun, 15 Jan 2012 20:05:44 PST

At last year's Golden Globes, ponytails reigned supreme, and this year, the trend is still kicking. Nicole Richie had perhaps one of the most talked-about styles of the evening, opting for a vintage-meets-modern coiffure with blunt bangs in the front. Sarah Michelle Gellar went for a similarly retro-themed look, her voluminized fall tossed up high at the crown. For Amanda Peet, a classic ponytail was all she needed for a gorgeously fresh style. So the next time you think about grabbing that hair elastic, look to these three for some chic inspiration.

Golden Globes: Amanda Peet

FabSugar — Sun, 15 Jan 2012 15:28:32 PST

Amanda Peet made quite a statement on the 2012 Golden Globes red carpet. The actress paired an ivory frothy, tiered gown with metallic heels. We love the soft lace layers and simple, yet bold jewels via a silver bracelet and unique gold earrings. Dramatic smoky eyes, pink lips, and a slightly tousled ponytail complete the look. What are your thoughts on her style?

Pilot Scoop: Bent

Shannon Vestal — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 08:00:00 PST

NBC's comedy Bent is part of their new midseason lineup, and it stars Amanda Peet and David Walton as two people who can't really stand each other - and obviously become love interests. The half-hour show is set in Venice Beach, and the tone is as relaxed as the beach town setting. If you want to know whether Bent is something you'll want to tune in to, my pilot scoop can clue you in.

What it's about: Amanda Peet plays Alex, a single working mother who hires a contractor, Pete (David Walton) to make over her kitchen. Her uptight personality is challenged by Pete's relaxed, go-with-the-flow mentality, and though they're just client and contractor at first, there is chemistry all over the place.
Where it works: I've loved Peet since her days on the short-lived series Jack and Jill and she brings her effervescent charm (even when Alex is being uptight) to her role here. And Walton is hilarious and her perfect foil. You may remember him from Perfect Couples, which didn't get much of a chance, but Walton was one of the highlights.
Where it doesn't: The show seems like it's going to rely too much on Alex and Pete's will-they-or-won't they relationship. Sexual tension is a classic TV ingredient, but there has to be something more going on, and a kitchen renovation isn't going to cut it.
When it's on: TBA
You might like this show if: You like light, quirky comedy - think Cougar Town.

The cast of Horrible Bosses gathered in London this evening for their UK premiere.
