Pre-pre-show: Someone just described Kate Winslet's hair thus: "It may look very retro, but it's actually futuristic." Ryan Seacrest interviews Kate WInslet, who looks like she wants to bite off his face, or somebody's. "I'm extremely nervous," Winslet explains. Seacrest shows Winslet's upcoming Time magazine cover, in which her face has been blasted into a white mask by either retro airbrushing or futuristic Photoshop.
Winslet speaks to someone else, entertains their suggestion that she concentrate on "not tripping." She repeats this after them in John Cleese "Fawlty Towers" mode. They're going to have to refinish the arms of her seat at the Kodak after tonight. Taraji P. Henson acts excited and happy, for balance.
