We miss you.

On Saturday (15th October 2011) there was the 21st running of the Environment Media Association Awards.  After appearing at the event three times in the past four years it seemed like a good bet that Kathryn would attend again.  Sadly, as far as we can tell, that was not the case

In lieu of new photographs we’ll revisit last year’s EMA Awards.

For the 2010 event about environmental issues like climate change, Kathryn raised a more than temperatures and awareness in her “LBD” (in this case “little blue dress”) and glowing tan Eyebrows! I meant she raised eyebrows

We have 12 new or updated photos from the Arrivals of the 20th Annual Environment Media Association Awards in the Gallery.  5 of the first 6 images are now much increased in size.  There are also 3 new large and 4 new small ones, expanding the total to 77.

Ahh, the good old days.  When attending multiple events in one year, sometimes even two in a month, was not uncommon!  I know!  Shocking!

Ahh, the good old days.  When attending multiple events in one year, sometimes even two in a month, was not uncommon!  I know!  Shocking! 

In 2004 Kathryn attended the Primetime Emmy Awards.  She even presented an award with fellow actor Anthony LaPaglia.  The two of them have never acted together but Kathryn has worked with Anthony’s younger brother Jonathan, twice.  LaPaglia Jr. co-starred with Kathryn in the movie Inferno and he played ADA Curtis Bell in Cold Case.  Films and roles very much the opposites ends of the spectrum in many ways.

Doesn’t Kathryn look stunning in her long red dress with a plunging neckline (that’s fashion speak for “much cleavage on display”) and curly hair?  No?  Well, you’re wrong!

What have we got in this update for you?  I’ll tell you.  There are 5 new large photos and a video of Kathryn’s time on stage announcing the nominations for the Outstanding Writing in a Mini-series, Movie or Dramatic Special award.

So, you ask, where does one go to behold these wonders?  In the Gallery of course, silly!

Have a good weekend.

The Oscars is the biggest awards show there is, period. In recent years the BAFTAs has deliberately been moved to happen before the American Academy’s awards so as not be seen to be playing second fiddle to them.  But here at KM UK we get the last laugh.  They both publish their schedules far in advance so we can nip in and hold our ceremony first!

Ladies and gentlemen, for your reading pleasure, may I present to you the Kathryn Morris UK Awards 2011.  We take a look back at the events of 2010 to recognise the highs and lows of the year, all from the perspective of a fan of the amazing actress and all round wonderful person Kathryn Morris.  Who or what will win the coveted ‘RichE’ (named after it’s creator, ME!) statues this year?

Those expecting a Ricky Gervais-style roasting of celebrities (did the Golden Globes organisers really expect anything different when they hired him?) will likely be disappointed but hopefully we’ll have a few laughs along the way.

Without further ado, the do…

Welcome to the 2nd Annual ‘RichE’ Awards brought to you by Kathryn Morris UK.

We’ll have none of the messing about from last year.  You should know the drill with these award ceremonies by now, you’ve watched enough of them.  Sit down.  Shut up.  Applaud as appropriate.  Laugh at the hosts weak attempts at humour.  Be quick about getting to the stage to accept your award.  Keep the acceptance speeches short (I’m looking at you Gwyneth!) and then get off quickly.  No dawdling about chatting to the presenter! 

Let us begin.

Best Actress	We start off again this year with the obvious one: Best Actress. And the winner is… Kathryn Morris. No surprise there. By the 2012 RichEs we hope to see more proof of the undoubted talent. However, if Kathryn wins again next year we may have to retire the category for good
Most Entertaining TV Show Award	Next up we have the award for The Most Entertaining TV Show.  And the winner is… Castle. I was a late-comer to the Castle ball but soon caught up. Bones, last year’s winner, is done with a lighter touch than most procedurals but Castle takes it a step further, but it’s not a comedy. There is so much that’s good about this show: the cases, the set-ups, Richard Castle’s quips, references to actor Nathan Fillion’s previous work (such as Firefly), the Beckett-Castle back-and-forth to name but a few.  Fillion is always worth watching and the new-to-me Stana Katic (Detective Kate Beckett) plays off him brilliantly, plus she’s very swoon-some Even the name ‘Richard Castle’ has a certain appeal   All of which makes the show a very worthy winner tonight.  Kathryn needs to do a guest spot on a future episode of Castle.   She should be a new actress, called Riley Lush, playing Nikki Heat in the film or TV adaptation of Richard Castle’s book.  It would make a fun contrast to Cold Case. See what I did there? Oh, never mind
Best Film Starring Kathryn Morris Award	Last time out this category was fit to bursting with movies released during 2009 in comparison to this year. For those keeping score: 2009 films, one; 2010 films, none. Well… no films were officially released.   So we have no option but to give the award to that film… the one that got released… sort of   I forget it’s name, and we probably shouldn’t mention it anyway, but congratulations to those responsible.
The Nurse Platt Award	We’ve decided to keep this award for 2011 but with a twist.  It was named after the Kathryn’s character in the movie Assassination Of A High School President and given for Best Actress Starring As A Healthcare (Un)Professional.This year it is recognising Services To Stockings, in honour of Nurse Platt’s devastating use of hosiery.And the award goes to… Kathryn Morris and her scene stealing fishnets in the film we can’t talk about (FWCTA)
Best Special Effect Award	Previously known as the Best Makeup Award this is the first of our awards for technical achievement.  This year’s winner had such an overall impact that went beyond just ‘makeup’ we had to expand the scope of the award. The past 12 months or so have been dominated by blue things. Avatar cost billions and billions of dollars and took almost no money at all. Why was it such a disaster? I’m glad you asked that. I’ll tell you: not enough brown, or at least the wrong sort of brown. Forget movie magic. Mix just enough blue (not too much) with just the right shade of brown, throw some blonde on top (and a tiny bit of grey at the feet) and you get photographic magic. Yes, this year’s winner of the Best Special Effect ‘RichE’ is makeup artist extraordinaire CarleneK for the amazing effect she helped achieve with Kathryn at the Environmental Media Association Awards.  Carlene’s Shine Bronzer product, in combination with that dress and those shoes, and Kathryn of course making it such a lovely shape.  WOW!   It had a truly special effect. See what I did there?  No?  Really?
Best Costume Award	To follow the tradition established last year we are going to keep this category open only to Kathryn’s public appearances from the year: all the premières, awards and charity events.  It was a bit of a lean year for Kathryn appearing in front of the paparazzi and most of the times that she was she was wearing relatively casual clothes, which is fine by me as she looks lovely dressed in just jeans and a “t”. This does mean, however, that we don’t have a large selection of outfits to choose from. But choose we must, so here are the 3 nominees vying for the 2011 Best Costume Award RichE: The People’s Choice Awards, Jack Goes Boating Première and the Environmental Media Association Awards. A tough choice, or at least it would be if it wasn’t for that little blue dress. It beats the big blue/black dress and the little black dress by some margin.  Proof that less can be more The award goes to… the Environmental Media Association Awards dress.
Word Costume Award	This has to be one of the most difficult categories to call this year as there have been no real stand-out bad outfits. As I said before Kathryn tends to have appeared in more casual-looking clothes at most of the events she attended this year.  I have to pick a winner though and I’m sure many of you will disagree with me on this one.The winner is (as you’ve already seen on the right) is the Women In Entertainment Breakfast shirt and trousers (that’s ‘pants’ to our American cousins ) combo.  Don’t get me wrong there is much to like about it but it doesn’t quite work for me.  Maybe if I saw the ensemble from all angles I’d have a change of heart (those pants are so very tight ).  It is not bad, just the least good of the set.  On the plus side the included smiles were wonderful to behold.
Surprise Appearance Award	I’ll just say it involves a certain FWCTA and the Internet and leave it at that
Least Surprising News Award	There can only be entry in this new category so let’s not beat around the bush (is that ever an option?) and declare the winner: The cancellation/non-renewal of Cold Case.  It had been on the cards for a couple of seasons so as upsetting as it was to realise that it was really happening, it was no great surprise.
Most Surprising News Award	Initially this only had one nominee, the corollary to the previous award. As expected as the cancellation/non-renewal of Cold Case was it was still quite shocking to have it confirmed. Three other events have put that one in the shade though: The announcement of Kathryn securing one of the most coveted roles there is: ‘wife of Brad Pitt.’ Personally I don’t see the appeal myself.  ‘Husband of Kathryn’ sounds far better Kathryn herself announcing on a national television chat that she is dating someone new. Finding out the most likely candidate for the position of “luckiest man alive” at the premieré of The Walking Dead TV show. And the winner is…. the Wendy Williams Show announcement about a new beau. It just came out of no where and blind sided us. See what I did there with the American sports movie reference? Kathryn will be starring in a sports movie (Moneyball), written by the same man.  No?  Again?  Come on!  Work with me here!
(Possible) Luckiest Man Alive Award	You can’t actually win a ‘possible’ award so there is no point even going any further with nominees etc.  If it had gone ahead as initially planned the winner would (possibly) have been Johnny Messner.  Sorry Johnny.  So close.  I’m gutted for you.  I’m sure you’ll get over it somehow.  As a last minute stand-in award we will give the runner-up prize of 2nd Luckiest Man Of 2010 Award to our youngest recipient yet: Master Kyle Gallner for a scene or two in the FWCTA.  Sorry Kyle.  You were so close.  B*****d!
Best Supporting Actor Award	Next, we get to inaugurate a new category for this year: Best Supporting Actor.  Could it be Danny Pino for his role in the final episodes of the final season of Cold Case? I know he’d be a popular choice with many of you.  Nope.  It’s not him.  Sorry ladies.  Could it be Kyle ‘The B*****d!’ Gallner from the FWCTA?  Young whipper snapper!  He’s already won a silver statuette this evening so it won’t be him.  No, this one goes to Johnny Messner for his work on screen, and (possibly) off, with Kathryn.  Congratulations mate!  I’m so happy for you (what’s the emoticon for gritted teeth?).
Best Supporting Actress	The film we can’t talk about has a veritable smorgasbord of potential Supporting Actresses to choose from: Denise Richards and my fellow Brit Rebecca Mader amongst them.  They’re good but they aren’t ‘the best.’The recipient of this award is well known to you all. She (it is a she ) is multi-talented.  She can sing and dance as well as act.  She’s a star of the stage and screen, and is due to be seen in several upcoming movies and TV shows.  She’s a great Twitter-ertoo.  She’s been a ‘supporting actress’ in the normal awards sense and she’s ‘the best’ in every sense making her an ideal winner.  Tracie Thoms is the KM UK Best Supporting Actress of 2011 award winner!  Woooh!  You go girl!  (I can’t carry that off can I?)
Greatest Smile Award	This has to be everybody’s favourite category.  How can you not love even the idea of the most beautiful woman there is smiling.  And we all know that smiling is Kathryn’s USP.  It just doesn’t get any better than that.  As per last year we will only be taking smiles seen at public events in the past 12 months into account.  These are our 4 nominees up for the 2011 ‘RichE’: It gets harder with every look but we have to stay firm and come to a conclusion.  In truth every single one is a winner, except for the last three, because this one is the best of the best: Gorgeous
Contribution To KM UK Award	This is such a difficult category to choose a winner for.  Many people, known and unknown have contributed to this site in 2010 in make it the success it is today.  Whether it be tip offs to some Kathryn-related news, comments, or images a lot of people take the time and effort to get involved.  I thank you all for that.  As much as I’d like to name an individual I’m not going to do that.  Instead this goes to all the great people that have helped me in so many different ways.  You are all great.  Yeah, yeah.  I chickened out No, I’ve changed my mind, I’m going to pick someone whom without this site would just be… err… UK: Kathryn

For the second year running Kathryn couldn’t/wouldn’t be here to accept her awards.  Is it something I said?  Fingers crossed for next year.  Perhaps by then we’ll be looking forward to her receiving some genuine awards.

None of the other recipients turned up either.  Do they need to be told to attend or do these Hollywood-types just ‘know’?  Do they just sense the opening of a golden envelope?

You’ve probably agreed with a few of my choices.  You’ve probably disagreed with a few too.  And you’re probably baffled by the rest.  Hopefully you laughed a few times.  Or maybe not   Feel free to suggest your own winners and losers in these or your own categories in the comments.

Same time, same place next year?

Now get orf my land!

Hollyscoop.com have put together a video of kids and celebs talking about what they are doing for Halloween.  Kathryn was amongst the grown-ups interviewed on the red carpet of the recent Environmental Media Association Awards their take on it.

In the Gallery is a video clip of the few seconds Kathryn features in the piece and a handful of Full HD (1080p) screencaps from it.  Here’s what Kathryn says:

“If I go to any crazy parties it’s going to be on my friend’s cul-de-sac with his three kids because I love seeing his three kids get dressed up.  It’s all about the kids… and the candy!”

Thanks to Karen for finding it for us all to see.

Speaking of Halloween: if you have any Kathryn-related, Halloween-themed Fan Art please contact me so I can add it to the Gallery.

This is the 20th running of the event and Kathryn’s 3rd appearance.  I can safely say that she has never looked better at this event.  The two previous times were, in my opinion, rare fashion misses for [...]]]> Kathryn attended, and presented an award at, The Environment Media Association Awards again last night (16 October 2010).

This is the 20th running of the event and Kathryn’s 3rd appearance.  I can safely say that she has never looked better at this event.  The two previous times were, in my opinion, rare fashion misses for Ms. Morris.  Not this year.  She looked amazing in a small blue dress.

Is that the hint of a tan?  The remnants of the one tan she was sporting in the recent Moneyball filming photos perhaps?

With the chill in the increasingly autumnal British air and environmental issues causing events like this, suddenly global warming doesn’t seem such a bad idea

Various images and videos have been added to the Arrivals, On Stage, Backstage and Video sub-albums of the 20th Annual Environment Media Association Awards entry in the Gallery.

Update: I’ve added a video and screencaps from said video to the Gallery.  The video is of Kathryn posing for the cameras as we’ve seen in the photos.  Frankly it’s better with the audio off because it is just Kathryn being ordered about by the photographers.  She very graciously, and beautifully, smiles and poses though.  Thanks to Katrin & Icywinter for the simultaneous emails about this.  A small on stage image was added earlier too.

Update 2: Another video’s been added to the Gallery.  This one is an interview.  It’s watermarked but there are lots of great smiles to compensate

Update 3: 7 HQ images have been added to the collection in the Arrivals, On Stage and Backstage albums.  I’ve moved these update reports to after the jump to tidy up.

Update 4: 16 new HQ arrivals photos have been added to the Gallery.  Big thanks to Bikini.

Update 5: A 2nd interview video to watch, plus HD (though not great quality) screencaps to look at.  In the video Kathryn says that Cold Case ended well and when they expected it to (contracts ending etc.), that she’s doing a lot of behind the scenes TV production work including working a night time soap opera with Eva Longoria that’s been sold to ABC.  And Moneyball is due out in September next year!  Big thanks to Karen for this one.

Update 6: This event just keeps on giving!  42 updates, some new, some upgrades, some massive images across the Arrivals, On Stage and Backstage albums.  All marvellous   Thanks to WM.

Update 7: On stage video of Kathryn presenting the award for Best Documentary Film has been added to the Gallery, and some screencaps of it as well.

Update 8: Another new HQ arrivals photo has been added.

Update 9: Kathryn’s ring, earrings and bracelet are apparently by Sutra.

Update 10: 8 more HQ arrival photos have been added.

Update 11: Kathryn’s shoes are part of the Love collection by Enzoani.  This particular ones are the gray Holly model.

Update 12: There is another video from this event which includes a couple of snippets of Kathryn.  You can find it HERE at the Mother Nature Network (MNN).  Some of the elements are actually from last year’s event as you can see by the less successful hair-do and red dress.

Update 13: Following on from update 12 we now have Maximum Morris edits and HD screencaps of the MNN video in the 2009 and 2010 EMAA albums.

Oh yes, there are also many updates in the Monte Carlo Television Festival Cocktail [...]]]> I don’t think I need to say much about this set of updates   I think covered it last time.  12 updates, 8 of them huge, to images from the Creative Emmy’s arrivals album, part of KM UK’s Summer Of HD.

Oh yes, there are also many updates in the Monte Carlo Television Festival Cocktail Party (2 of 3) and Environmental Media Awards (all 34) albums, one of Kathryn’s few fashion mis-steps

To finish off 2008 we have updates to nearly 30 images from 3 events:

Just over 3 years ago Resurrecting The Champ got its big première.  All the cast were in attendance and we’ve got 11 photos upgraded to [...]]]> The cars take a back-seat now as Kathryn steps onto the red carpets in the second of our 2007 public appearance updates as part of KM UK’s Summer Of HD.

Just over 3 years ago Resurrecting The Champ got its big première.  All the cast were in attendance and we’ve got 11 photos upgraded to full size from the event.

Next the Primetime Emmy awards.  Kathryn presented an award with Cold Case co-star Danny Pino.  No awards for our gal but she looked stunningly statuesque in her long red dress.  19 updated images across the 3 sub-albums covering the arrivals, on-stage and press room.

Ironically it appears that thanks to global warming meant that Kathryn didn’t feel cold in late October, arriving up at the Environmental Media Awards in a short dress on the back of a scooter.  Very green.  Not the scooter.  Me.  Green with envy.  Envious of the scooter    19 updated images in this set.

Things were definitely cooler for the Fred Claus première.  Fake snow is probably required in LA in early November though.  A further 10 images get upgraded this time, some are now huge!

And to finish off may I wish a Happy Labor Day to our American visitors.
