Television stars mingled with Hollywood’s A-list on the red carpet for the 73rd Annual Golden Globe Awards, where many of our favorite Jewish stars were nominated for the Hollywood Foreign Press’s highest honor.

White, red and classic black gowns were the theme of the night, with beading and diamonds adding some much-needed sparkle to the red carpet.

Here are some of our most favorite glamorous looks:

Funny lady Amy Schumer was glowing in a classic black and white gown as she arrived to the event with her sister Kim as her date. Schumer is nominated for “Trainwreck” in the lead actress in a comedy or a musical category.

Schumer and BFF, Jennifer Lawrence, were hilarious when they introduced their nominated movies, “Joy” and “Trainwreck” together.

No matter who wins the Golden Globe tonight, the real winner of the red carpet was not even present. Jewelry designer Lorraine Schwartz supplied the baubles for all the starlets and was perhaps the most mentioned name on the red carpet. Diamonds really are a girl’s best friend.

The Forward is free to read, but it isn’t free to produce

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward.

Now more than ever, American Jews need independent news they can trust, with reporting driven by truth, not ideology. We serve you, not any ideological agenda.

At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.

Readers like you make it all possible. We’ve started our Passover Fundraising Drive, and we need 1,800 readers like you to step up to support the Forward by April 21. Members of the Forward board are even matching the first 1,000 gifts, up to $70,000.

This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism, because every dollar goes twice as far.
