January is just the month of American movie awards because it marks the achievements of actors, actresses, and production people after one year. Another glamorous awards night before the Academy Awards 2012 is the 18th Screen Actors Guild Awards, or better known as the SAG Awards. It is actually an award giving body of actors, by actors, and to actors. Sorry if I made it sound rather self-serving. LOL

But it is nice and glamorous and at least, the actors may have different thoughts that the other award-giving bodies, right? And so it is another opportunity for some less recognized actors to also win awards. Additionally, it is another reason to glam up. :D
