SAG Awards: The 17th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards

The 17th Annual Screen Actors Guild (SAG) awards paved the way for what could become a big night at the upcoming Academy Awards for The King's Speech.First the Colin Firth-lead drama beat out Black Swan and The Social Network for Best Picture. Then Firth won the Best Actor award which included a strong field of competitors such as Jeff Bridges in True Grit.

With these wins following identical wins at the Golden Globes, The King's Speech should be considered the favorite to walk away with Best Picture at the Academy Awards. A Screen Actors Guild Award is an accolade given by the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) to recognize outstanding performances by its members. The statuette given, representing a naked man holding both a mask of comedy and a mask of tragedy, is called "The Actor".

It is 16 inches tall, weighs over 12 pounds, cast in solid bronze, and produced by the American Fine Arts Foundry in Burbank, California.Looking sultry in a neon blue dress with a plunging neck line, Sofía Vergara was all smiles as she and her cast mates accepted the award.Vergara was also nominated for “Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series” along star actresses Tina Fey, Jane Lynch, Edie Falco and the legendary Betty White.
