Can We Get This Award To Go?

A host of award shows brought some celebrities out, but not all of them: Gwyneth Paltrow attended the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles in a sparkly Burberry number to support husband Chris Martin, whose band Coldplay performed with the backing of a marching band; Katy Perry, who was up for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance (but lost to British singer Adele), performed in a Carmen Miranda-esque fruit ensemble.

Kate Winslet picked up a statue for Best Leading actress at the British Academy Film Awards (BAFTAs) in London, for which she was nominated both for her role in "The Reader" and "Revolutionary Road." She posed on the red carpet with presenter Daniel Craig. Less than two weeks till the Oscars! And speaking of the Oscars, Jessica Biel appeared in Oscar de la Renta at the Academy Awards' Scientific and Technical Awards Saturday night to give out all the little gold men that don't fit into the telecast.

But award shows aren't always the trip worth taking: Angelina Jolie arrived at the BAFTAs after a visit to a refugee camp in Thailand for cyclone victims from Myanmar, proving she still thinks some things are important than her career. (She and fellow Super World Traveler Brad Pitt were both up for leading awards; Jolie lost to Winslet, above, while Pitt lost to Mickey Rourke.) And last year's Grammy darling Amy Winehouse, who performed via satellite when she was not granted a visa to travel to L.A. for the ceremony, skipped the festivities altogether: Rumor has it she is staying in Jamaica to record her third album within reach of, uh, "inspirations." Well, there's always next year.
