The Golden Globes were almost disrupted by a fashion crisis when a truck full of designer shoes was stolen.
Some of Hollywood's most glamorous stars came close to walking down the red carpet barefoot when a truckload of Taryn Rose footwear was held up on the way to
the awards ceremony.
A source said: "A truck full of shoes was broken into on its way to Beverly Hills. A total of 120 pairs worth US$50,000 were taken.
"Thankfully, some of the big names, including 'Desperate Housewives' actress Felicity Huffman and Cate Blanchett, had already collected their shoes in advance. But others had to find last-minute replacements."
Despite the shoe catastrophe, the glitzy event had no shortage of fashion triumphs.
British actress Sienna Miller wowed the crowd in a stunning white and gold scooped neck floor-length dress.
Queen of the night, Dame Helen Mirren - who received two Best Actress awards - stepped out in a glamorous petrol blue gown while Beyoncé Knowles dazzled in a slinky mermaid-style number.
