Paula Abdul Gets Borated By Bruno
When Hecklerspray gets called into various places to accept awards and whatnot, we routinely do four things. The first is we always have a sword pointed at the innards of whoever hands us our trophy. That's just to ensure an enthusiastic and positive over-the-top speech, which works well over half the time. If you Youtube 'Hecklerspray, Billy Crystal, Kidney Sack Spill' 'you'll see exactly what we're talking about there. Other major celebrities have a similar routine of only attending certain award ceremonies. Paula Abdul, for instance, only attends them when the presenter is Sacha Baron Cohen with cameras rolling.

Jesus Christ, We’ve Won Another Sort Of Award (Sort Of)

You! Vote For The Orange Rising Star BAFTA Award Immediately!
We love the BAFTAS. They're just like the Oscars, except they're British and nobody famous ever turns up. Amazing. However, one thing annoys us about the BAFTAs, and that's the suspicion that they're only voted for by elderly men who live alone, only wear smoking jackets and call everybody 'darling' all the time. But not ...

LA Film People Say WALL-E Is Quite Good
Do you want the good news or the bad news first? Well, tough, you're getting the bad news - it's awards season. You know, that long, slow, dull deathmarch to the Oscars where every single vaguely filmy organisation on the face of the planet announces which movies it enjoyed watching most. But more than that, awards season marks the time of year when we wish we had another job. Any other job. A job involving heights and spikes and angry bears, even. And now the good news - The Los Angeles Film Critics Association gave its best picture award to WALL-E.

Kenny Chesney is The Most Entertaining Cowboy In History
You know what we like in an entertainer? The wild hope that wearing a big hat will cover for an overwhelming lack of charisma. And we're not the only ones, because Kenny Chesney - a man with a big hat and hardly any charisma - has just won the CMA Entertainer Of The Year award for the fourth time in five years, making him officially the most entertaining country singer ever born. Except for Garth Brooks. He's equally entertaining. This must count as one of Kenny Chesney's proudest moments. Now he can look back on all the other country singers of the past and know he's more entertaining than them. He's more entertaining than Billy Shooter, Old Jeb Clovercleb, Whistlin' Jimmy McFormaldahide, Redeyes O'Murderer and even, in a controversial twist, Barefoot Bobby And The Pregnant Mistakes. Congratulations, Kenny Chesney. You earnt this.

Breaking: Angelina Jolie Talks About Someone Else For A Change
We don't know if we've mentioned it, but Angelina Jolie has a movie out - it doesn't look very good, but keep that to yourself. But, despite what you might think by the amount of time that she's spent promoting the movie by hanging babies from her boobs on the cover of magazines, Angelina Jolie isn't the only person involved in the making of that movie. It also happened to be directed by Clint Eastwood, whoever he is. And in a shocking break, Angelina Jolie last night decided to do a little more promotion by paying tribute to Clint Eastwood at a Hollywood awards gala. In fact - and we're not making this up - people were so shocked to see Angelina Jolie talking about someone that wasn't her that there were audible gasps in the crowd. And some people fell over and vomited like in the opening titles to Quincy. Alright, we made that bit up.

Jackson Five to Receive Award for Making It Through Life Alive, or Something
We’re positively flabbergasted. It turns out when you add up the stuff from the lives of all the Jackson Five members, there appears to be an achievement in there somewhere, or something. So, let’s give them a lifetime achievement award, shall we? Be sure to tune in to the award ceremony for the exciting activity where you have to match up pictures of the group from the past and present. If you're good enough to score 100% you’ll be awarded one of the last un-repossessed llamas from Neverland Ranch. Don’t get too excited, though. Nobody’s ever won one.

Noel Gallagher Now Officially A Very Old Man
Noel Gallagher isn't so much the voice of youth these day as the voice of weirdly arrested lad-dad Tim Lovejoy clones who refuse to accept that it isn't still 1996.
Or that's what we thought. Turns out we were being a little bit hopeful - in actual fact Noel Gallagher is slowly morphing into a Daily Telegraph letter-writer. While picking up an award recently, Noel decided to speak out about hoodies and knife crime and how it's all probably got something to do with computer games.
He went into a little more detail than that, but anyone wanting to hear more of Noel Gallagher's thoughts on society would be well advised to buy the forthcoming Oasis album Bloody Immigrants (And Don't Get Me Started On The NHS).
