"Hello lovelies! Last night was awesome. Sorry for the lame word (awesome) but I&amp;#x27;m at a loss. Aunt Nic loaned me a Gucci flapper-inspired frock (Can I keep it Nic?) and I managed to leave the apartment sans spit-up on my person. Epic. I met Life With Cancer&amp;#x27;s Erin and Redbook&amp;#x27;s Executive Editor, Alison Brower, at The Russian Tea Room for dirty martinis, gourmet sliders and uh, a Barbara Walters sighting--hello! I was so tempted to tell her I was on her show 20/20 last September. I didn&amp;#x27;t. More highlights after the jump!Once inside Carnegie Hall I was delighted to see my fellow bloggers Joanna and Petra and Erin. Everyone looked gorgeous...Fergie took the stage and opened the show--hello Fergie! Then I started crying because my girl crush Natalie Portman was the first presenter. Tyra Banks accepted her award and made me cry during her speech, saying her mom once told her to never give up on her dreams and if someone won&amp;#x27;t let you in the front door to go in the back...if the back door is shut...climb in a window...Her words were so powerful. If there was a mountain in Carnegie Hall I could have climbed it--barefoot. Nicole Kidman is flawless and made me bawl too, saying she had her kids and movie offers and fancy awards--and then came Keith who told her he wanted to love her and that they should make a baby...She won the single mom jackpot and made me feel hopeful! Should have brought tissues. Next year. As for the real tears? They came when nine-year-old Nujood took the stage with her mom and thanked Glamour for empowering her. She is nine. She is divorced after being sold off to a man. A man that slept with her. She is nine. The brave girl marched into court and asked for a divorce. It was granted and she proved it could be done, nudging other young girls to come forward and reclaim their freedom. Moving. Maureen Chiquet went from Old Navy executive to power-house at The House--Chanel, that is. Kind of makes you think how endless the possibilities are... The night was amazing. I&amp;#x27;ve decided I can win an Oscar for Best Orig Screenplay. One Day. What can you do? Because you can! Check out my WOTY photos! *Post has been updated from its original format."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
