2006's Best Part 8 - Golden Satellite Awards

Alright, this is looking a lot like Ricky Lo's column at the Philippine Star, where you'll read nothing but lists of Beauty Contest winners, on days when Ricky Lo doesn't have any news to spill. LOL! I can't say this will be the last of the Best List...I have fun compiling these (OC Alert!), so please indulge me.

On this page is another list, this time from the Golden Satellite...a breakaway group made up of international press people (they broke away from the Golden Globes group). The awards are supposedly handed out tonight (USA time) but there's little news online as to who won what just yet, winners have been released and this entry is updated.

Me NOT likey Forest Whitaker, well, not him but the guy he played on The Shield, he was appalling (which is probably a good indication he did a great job at acting out his character).
