"It's a fun one," said Clooney-who squired girlfriend Sarah Larson, who wore a blue strapless beaded gown with embroidered pink flowers by Valentino Couture, down the arrivals line-of the mood at this year's festivities.

"He's mad at me because I'm not on tour with him and I'm mad at him because he's not here," the actress-in a fiery frock and matching red lipstick-joked. Once she hit the stage, Heigl, who wore Escada, came down with a case of the jitters. "I'm unbelievably nervous," she announced to the audience before announcing the nominees for Best Makeup. 03 of 20 Heidi Klum and Seal Frazer Harrison/Getty Project Runway host Heidi Klum turned the red carpet into a runway in a custom John Galliano dress with a face-framing collar. Singer Seal wore a classic Dior tuxedo worn with a narrow tie, while his model spouse accessorized with fuchsia gems.

The Juno star and Best Actress nominee finished her look with a simple pearl and rock crystal Fred Leighton necklace. 06 of 20 Cate Blanchett Kevork Djansezian/AP Cate Blanchett , nominated this year for both Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress, looked surprisingly calm in a purple Dries Van Noten halter dress that showed off her pregnant shape to perfection.

Just one night ago, Blanchett won a Film Independent's Spirit Award for her portrayal of Bob Dylan in I'm Not There. 07 of 20 Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman Steve Granitz/WireImage Nicole Kidman was among the famous moms-to-be in attendance, accentuating her baby bump with a layered 1,399-carat diamond necklace designed by L'Wren Scott and a simple Balenciaga gown. After making it into the theater at the last minute with husband Keith Urban, Kidman embraced fellow Aussie Cate Blanchett before taking her seat. 08 of 20 Renee Zellweger Frederick Brown/Getty Renee Zellweger dazzled in a silver, strapless Carolina Herrera dress with a thigh-high split; she accessorized with silver shoes and two vintage diamond brooches from Cartier.
