Behind the Scenes at the 2016 Critics’ Choice Awards

If you’re entering your office’s Oscar pool, this is the award show to pay attention to — in the past 15 years, 11 of the Critics’ Choice Awards Best Picture winners would go on to nab the same big prize at the Academy Awards. But beyond that, this particular Critics’ Choice Awards is unique because it marks the first time that both TV and film get recognized in the same ceremony. For one, this year’s Critics’ Choice Awards red carpet is actually a blue carpet — really lettin’ loose there! It also has a bit more of an inclusive, fun feel than other awards. Don’t just takeOUR word for it. Do these stars not look like they’re having a blast getting ready? See for yourself, bb.
