A lot of big time celebs are planning on boycotting this years Golden Globes ceremony if the writer's strike doesn't end by then. Let's check out what the stars had to say...
Katherine Heigl: "I'm not crossing the picket line, not unless I'm contractually obliged to do, which, for the Golden Globes, I'm not."
(Nominated for 'Grey's Anatomy')
James McAvoy: “I don’t think I’d want to do that. It’s an environment I wouldn’t want to stick my nose into. I’m not from this country and for me to stick my nose and throw my small weight around wouldn’t be right.”
(Nominated for 'Atonement')
Glenn Close: “I would never cross a picket line.”
(Nominated for 'Damages')
Jeremy Piven: "I don’t know about whether or not I'll be attending because to be honest with you, I don’t know a lot about the rules and limitations of what is happening. I need to look into it. Writers are kind of these unsung heroes. People don’t see how much these guys work and they're just trying to cover their bases for themselves and for the future. I hope they get what they deserve and I'll do anything I can to help that."
(Nominated for 'Entourage')
Matt Weiner: “I will not cross the picket line. I’m mystified at the aggressive stance from the producers, shocked by it. It’s a crucial period in entertainment.”
(exec producer, drama series 'Mad Men')
James L. Brooks: "I think other people will decide that for us. There's going to be a lot of discussion and you end up hoping to do what's right. This has happened before. I don't know if it's going to go down the same way but it has happened before. There's no way to divorce yourself from how tough a holiday season it is in this town right now. It's the atmostphere we're all in, and that's all of us. Every day more and more people are affected by it. My next stop, ironically, is the picket line at Fox."
(Nominated for 'The Simpsons Movie')
