US Sexual assault hotlines flooded after #MeToo campaign

<p>Stars at the Golden Globe Awards had plenty to say at Sunday`s ceremony, not shying away from addressing the sexual misconduct scandal that has roiled Hollywood whether in pointed barbs or impassioned speeches.</p>

<p>Here are some key quotes from the event:<br />
<br />
<strong>SETH MEYERS, HOST:</strong><br />
&quot;We`re all here tonight courtesy of the Hollywood Foreign Press. A string of three words that could not have been better designed to infuriate our president. Hollywood Foreign Press.&quot;&nbsp;<br />
&quot;Time to address the elephant not in the room. Harvey Weinstein isn`t here tonight because, well, I`ve heard rumors that he`s crazy and difficult to work with. But don`t worry, he`ll be back in 20 years when he becomes the first person ever booed during the `In Memoriam.`&quot;&nbsp;<br />
<br />
<strong>OPRAH WINFREY, WINNER OF CECIL B. DEMILLE LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD:</strong><br />
&quot;Each of us in this room are celebrated because of the stories we tell, and this year we became the story. But it`s not just a story affecting the entertainment industry ... I want to express gratitude to all the women who have endured years of abuse and assault because they, like my mother, had children to feed and bills to pay and dreams to pursue.&quot;<br />
<br />
<strong>LAURA DERN, WINNER OF BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS FOR TV SERIES &quot;BIG LITTLE LIES&quot;:</strong><br />
&quot;Many of us were taught not to tattle. It was a culture of silencing, and that was normalized... May we teach our children that speaking out without the fear of retribution is our culture`s new North Star.&quot;</p>

'Time's Up': Women in Hollywood join hands to fight against sexual harassment

<p>HBO defends its stance to renew&nbsp;hit series &quot;Big Little Lies&quot; for season 2 after being criticised for the move&nbsp;since it was supposed to be a &#39;miniseries&#39;.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Earlier this week, on Monday, &quot;Big Little Lies&quot; was nominated for <a href="http://www.wionews.com/world/entertainment-golden-globe-awards-2018-the-complete-list-of-nominations-26482" target="_blank">Golden Globe</a>&nbsp;in the category of &#39;Best Television Limited Series or Motion Picture Made for Television&#39; competing against the likes of &quot;Fargo&quot;, &quot;Feud: Bette and Joan&quot;, &quot;The Sinner&quot;, &quot;Top of the Lake: China Girl&quot;.</p>

<p>It&nbsp;received several Golden Globe nominations in the miniseries category just days after being renewed.</p>

<p>This led to some industry insiders&nbsp;feeling cheated. They felt that the premium network was &quot;gaming the system&quot; and &quot;acted badly&quot;.&nbsp;</p>

<p>HBO reacted sharply on Wednesday, calling the criticism&nbsp;&quot;irresponsible and uninformed&quot;,&nbsp;&quot;baseless and undeserved&quot;.</p>

<p>In a statement to a US based fashion magazine, the network said,&nbsp;&quot;&#39;Big Little Lies&#39; was conceived, produced, and aired as a limited series.&nbsp;The implication of impropriety regarding HBO&#39;s awards submission of &#39;Big Little Lies&#39; in the Limited Series category is irresponsible and uninformed.&quot;</p>

<p>The network went on to explain that the decision to come out with a second season came only after the completion and success of the first one.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The statement continued, &quot;The idea to continue the story came about only after the show aired. None of the cast or filmmakers had holdover contracts. Each deal had to be renegotiated, which is proof that no ongoing series was contemplated. Additionally, no source material beyond Liane Moriarty&#39;s novel existed. The accusation that HBO was &#39;gaming the system&#39; is baseless and undeserved.&quot;</p>

After HBO announced Season 2 of the hit series, there was criticism of HBO 'gaming the system' to enter Golden Globe

HBO defends its stance to renew hit series "Big Little Lies" for season 2 after being criticised for the move since it was supposed to be a 'miniseries'. Earlier this week, on Monday, "Big Little Lies" was nominated for Golden Globe in the category of 'Best Television Limited Series or Motion Picture Made for Television' competing against the likes of "Fargo", "Feud: Bette and Joan", "The Sinner", "Top of the Lake: China Girl". It received several Golden Globe nominations in the miniseries category just days after being renewed. This led to some industry insiders feeling cheated. They felt that the premium network was "gaming the system" and "acted badly". HBO reacted sharply on Wednesday, calling the criticism "irresponsible and uninformed", "baseless and undeserved". In a statement to a US based fashion magazine, the network said, "'Big Little Lies' was conceived, produced, and aired as a limited series. The implication of impropriety regarding HBO's awards submission of 'Big Little Lies' in the Limited Series category is irresponsible and uninformed." The network went on to explain that the decision to come out with a second season came only after the completion and success of the first one.

The result? A unique ring with both a bird and floral motif. Mehta explained that the ring&rsquo;s design was inspired by Phillippe&rsquo;s name. &ldquo;The name Ava is derived from the Latin word for bird, so she closely identifies with the symbol &mdash; it&rsquo;s also a symbol for freedom and serenity.&rdquo; explained Mehta. But the soaring bird wasn&rsquo;t the only part of the gorgeous sparkler &mdash; there was also the floral element. The beautiful bauble was complete with a lotus flower made of pink sapphires (one of Phillippe&rsquo;s favorite stones) and the ring itself had a rose gold band (another Phillippe fave). Mehta explained their choice of the Lotus because it is a unique flower that &ldquo;brings exceptional beauty&rdquo; wherever it grows. . .

Others debutants from India included Chunky Pandey's son and daughter

Reese Witherspoon's lookalike daughter Ava Philippe made her 'society debut' at the Bal des Debutantes in Paris in what looked like a fairytale setup. She wore a gold Giambattista Valli haute couture ball gown for the night. Ava Phillippe wearing custom Payal Mehta Jewels for Le Bal Des Débutantes in Paris! . . The result? A unique ring with both a bird and floral motif. Mehta explained that the ring’s design was inspired by Phillippe’s name. “The name Ava is derived from the Latin word for bird, so she closely identifies with the symbol — it’s also a symbol for freedom and serenity.” explained Mehta. But the soaring bird wasn’t the only part of the gorgeous sparkler — there was also the floral element. The beautiful bauble was complete with a lotus flower made of pink sapphires (one of Phillippe’s favorite stones) and the ring itself had a rose gold band (another Phillippe fave). Mehta explained their choice of the Lotus because it is a unique flower that “brings exceptional beauty” wherever it grows. . .
