Hello Delia,
As to your 2nd question...The woman was Sasha Alexander, the actress who played Nora in "Down Low," (daughter-in-law of Sophia Loren). She was there in support of Nine and only secondarily in "support" of Hugh Laurie. (credit info: hughlauriefan).

Lisa wasn't there. Somebody wrote here or on the Huli Fanpop that she was attending the Sundance Film Festival.

Really? Sasha Alexander? I didn't recognize her. Support of "Nine" next to Hugh, right? He was part of the "Nine" cast and we don't know about it, or why else was she sitting there, looking "supportive"?... Sorry, got a little carried away here.

Lisa was so beautiful at last year's SAG awards, i'm sorry she didn't go.

Sasha was there with her husband and Sophia. Sasha was at the GG's too. I am not really sure why they put Hugh there, but he was late getting there because you can actually see him being seated in one picture after they had started.

It might have been an available spot because I think he was originally to sit by Sandra B.

thanks, Belle, now i'm gonna officially stop hating Sasha (whom i actually like, but not in Lisa's rightful place:))))
