Late actor Heath Ledger was honored with the best supporting actor award at the Screen Actor's Guild Awards for his portrayal of The Joker in last summer's blockbuster "The Dark Knight."

Ledger's "The Dark Knight" co-star Gary Oldman accepted the award on his behalf.

"I'm quite emotional," Oldman said. "It is a great honor to be asked to accept this on behalf of Heath. He was an extraordinary young man with an extraordinary talent, and it is wonderful that you have acknowledged that and honored that talent tonight."

Ledger's performance has been generating Oscar buzz since before his death last January from an accidental overdose of prescription drugs. With the SAG win and his Golden Globe win earlier this month, Ledger now looks certain to receive the supporting-actor Oscar on Feb. 22.

This must be another bittersweet moment for Ledger's family. After the actor was honored at the Golden Globes, they issued a statement saying the award would eventually go to Matilda, Ledger's daughter with Michelle Williams. I'm sure the SAG award will go to her as well.

Tina Fey Wins SAG Award and Owes It All to Daughter Alice

Tina Fey won the first award of the evening at tonight's Screen Actors Guild Awards, taking the honor for best female actor in a comedy series for her work on "30 Rock." Fey was quick to give credit where credit was due and dedicated her award to her daughter, Alice, 3, calling her "the funniest person in my family."

The actress also took a thinly-veiled jab at Hollywood producers, who have battled Hollywood trade guilds over actors, writers and others' share of potential profits from Web programming. Referring again to Alice, Fey said, "Some day she'll be old enough to watch 30 Rock reruns on the Internet and understand where Mommy was going at 6 a.m. every day for all that time. And she'll look up at me and say, 'What do you mean you don't get residuals for this?' "

Kate Winslet has won one of the early awards of the evening at the 2009 SAG Awards. Winslet won her award for outstanding performance by a female actor in a supporting role for "The Reader" in which she played a former concentration camp guard.

"It's really an honor to be included in what I think is such a remarkable year and be acknowledged by my peers in this way," Winslet said in her acceptance speech. "I really feel like everybody should be given a medal."

Winslet already won the same prize at this year's Golden Globes. When accepting her award on that night, Kate thanked her two children Mia and Joe for “coming on this adventure with mummy”.

“I love being a mum,” she said tearfully. “My priorities in life have just completely shifted since I had my two children. Mia and Joe are the most important thing in my world.”

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Arrive at the 2009 SAG Awards

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt (remember - don't call them Brangelina anymore) arriving for the 2009 Screen Actor's Guild Awards being held at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. They're both up for awards - Angelina for her role in "Changeling" and Brad for his in "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button." I'm thinking if they both win they may celebrate by making a baby.

I'm hoping that someday they'll bring the kids to one of these events. Wouldn't it be great to see Maddox, Pax, Shiloh and Zahara working the red carpet? I guess twins Knox and Vivienne actually did make an appearance at last year's awards - in Angelina's tummy. If you remember, she was still trying to hide her pregnancy underneath a tent dress.

SAG Awards: Daniel Day Lewis Dedicates Award to Heath Ledger

sweatpantsmom — Mon, 28 Jan 2008 21:35:00 GMT

Daniel Day-Lewis, while accepting his SAG award on Sunday night, gave a moving tribute to Heath Ledger. Day-Lewis, who was named Best Actor for his leading role in There Will Be Blood, called Ledger, and his roles in Monster's Ball and Brokeback Mountain, an inspiration. "Of course, in Brokeback Mountain he was unique," Day-Lewis said. "He was perfect. And that scene in the trailer at the end of the film is as moving as anything I have ever seen."

During a backstage interview Day-Lewis was asked why he decided to dedicate his award to Ledger. "I suppose that's all I've been thinking about for the last few days. I never met him. I thought he was beautiful. I just have a very strong feeling that I would have liked him very much as a man. ...I admired him very much."

SAG Awards: Angelina Jolie Looking Pregnant on the Red Carpet

The Screen Actors Guild Awards, the first star-studded awards show of the season, are now underway. But who can concentrate on the show when we're all trying to figure out if Angelina Jolie is knocked-up? The actress walked the red carpet at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles in a loose, flowing dress fueling speculation that she's pregnant.

Of course, no one's considered the possibility that maybe she just likes loose, flowing dresses or maybe just wanted to be comfortable after she hits the after-show buffet line and scarfs down all those hors d'oeuvres. I'd wear a big dress too, if I knew there was a room full of cheese balls and shish kebabs waiting for me.

Jolie is nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role for her portrayal of Marianne Pearl in A Mighty Heart. If she wins maybe she'll announce her pregnancy. Probably not.
