Jennifer Lopez
How do you get the party started? Have a huge international star come out and shush all the millionaire celebrities in the crowd. OK, that's one way.
Johnny Depp
Did you notice how he was talking directly to us? OK, fine; he was presenting an award, too.
The Jonas Brothers
Sure, they're starring in their very own 3-D film, but the JoBros kept themselves subdued and serious to present the animation award.
Kate Winslet
Totally hogging all the dramatic categories, the actress took home both acting awards and flouted the old Hollywood protocol that dictates a twice-nominated thespian must accept only an award for the less-deserving film performance. This rewrites all the rules.
Ricky Gervais
The master of uncomfortable humor made the most of his time presenting, cracking a Holocaust joke and casting doubt on the Globes due to the HFPA not nominating him for something. Later, Sacha Baron Cohen would come in a close second for tweaking the audience.
Mickey Rourke
Think this Best Actor winner doesn't know he has a lot to be grateful for? The guy thanked his agent, his agent's boss and his dogs. That's gratitude, man.
Tracy Morgan
The self-proclaimed face of postracial America did not forget to thank a very important guy named J.Z. No, not the rapper, but NBC honcho Jeff Zucker, who controls whether 30 Rock stays on the air.
Danny Boyle
Sure, you probably haven't seen the director's Slumdog Millionaire, but after all the awards it has picked up already, you must want to, right?
Christopher Nolan
In a bittersweet moment, the director accepted Heath Ledger's acting award for The Dark Knight.
Tom Hanks
Whatever this guy does, he brings it: Whether he's acting or producing or just in the audience and mugging for the camera, this guy wants you to have a great time.
