CECIL B. DEMILE NOMINEE TODAY
UPDATE: HFPA sent out confirmation via Twitter that Kristen will be announcing the Cecil B. Demille® Award today.
UPDATE: The Hollywood Foreign Press's website could not be accessed late last night prior to the initial post after the Arciniegas tweet came out and no press release could be located. Therefore, the details of the award could not be ascertained. The schedule is now up, so here is what we could ascertain from HitFix and the LA Times.
"On Thursday, November 1, 2012 Cecil B. DeMille® Award announcement will take place." As Juan Carlos Arciniegas of CNN tweeted late yesterday night, Kristen Stewart "was invited" to present the nominee for the award alongside Australian actor and 'The Mentalist' star Simon Baker.
"The Cecil B. DeMille Award has a long and storied history. The award was first handed out in 1952 and has been presented every year since (except for 1976). The first winner was DeMille himself, and some other notable winners include Judy Garland, Sydney Poitier, and Alfred Hitchcock." ~ Hitfix
The LA Times defines the award as follows:
"The Cecil B. DeMille Award is given, according to the HFPA, to "talented individuals who have made an incredible impact on the world of entertainment."
Morgan Freeman, Robert De Niro, Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg are past recipients.
The 70th Annual Golden Globe Awards will be held on January 13th, 2013 and will be hosted by NBC comedy stars Tina Fey and Amy Poehler.
"The HFPA represent 55 countries with a combined readership of 250 million in some of the world's most respected publications. Each year, the organization holds the third most watched awards show on television, the Golden Globe® Awards." ~ HFPA
