You know what they say: After the party comes the afterparty. And at this Sunday's SAG Awards, the attendees will not be disappointed.
People magazine and the Entertainment Industry Foundation are joining forces once again to celebrate the efforts of charitable actors and this year's outstanding performances in film and TV. And to get [...]

With this year's SAG Awards just around the corner, it's only appropriate that the committee makes sure everyone is comfortable during the ceremony right? Which in most cases would mean making sure everyone is provided with snacks and water and are aware of where the exits are, should they need to escape for some fresh air. But when you're dealing with A-list celebrities, it's a whole new ballgame.
Take for instance the green room. This backstage area will be provided to presenters such as Nicole Kidman and Alec Baldwin so they can kick back, have a cocktail, relax and prepare for their moments onstage. And in order to soothe their nerves and generate a few good laughs, the room will be transformed into an elegant and luxurious retreat. And when we say elegant and luxurious, we aren't kidding.
The furniture, which includes mini vignettes, leather sofas, marble coffee tables and Murano glass vases, will be provided by Fendi Casa, the home-design collection for Fendi. The pieces will be covered with classic neutrals, such as ivory, pearl and gray, while accented with touches of black, chocolate and deep purple. You get the idea? And that's certainly not all ...
The green room will also be decorated throughout with glass casings featuring jewels from the world's leading diamond company, the House of Graff. Necklaces, bracelets, earrings and watches are placed throughout to add to the feel of the elegant, comfortable retreat.
What diamonds in a case have to do with making a room comfortable, we're not sure. We're thinking more on the lines of a fireplace, open bar and an Xbox, but hey, who are we to judge? We certainly wouldn't be complaining, and it seems this year's online SAG reporter isn't either.
"I just thought it was very, very touching," Angie Harmon commented. "As an honor to the finest performances of the finest actors, they brought the finest things. ... When I realized that's why they brought all these beautiful things in here, it was very touching. It was very sweet, and it's just, it's lovely to be appreciated as an actor."
Yes, it is quite lovely, indeed.
