Luxury prizes included in $1 million Golden Globes gift bag
Hollywood's finest are putting the final touches on their Golden Globes red carpet looks, as the stars gear up for the prestigious award ceremony.
Four Aussies are among the nominees this year, including Nicole Kidman, Naomi Watts, Cate Blanchett and Guy Pearce.
However, experts are tipping Kidman could take out the best actress gong for her erotic thriller, Babygirl.

"I really think Nicole Kidman is going to win," entertainment commentator and critic, Andrew Freund, told Today.
"She has been everywhere promoting Babygirl, she was just in Palm Springs over the weekend getting an award and she's getting huge, huge buzz.
"She's up against Angelina Jolie and Kate Winslet, but I think that your hometown girl is going to take that award."
Freund also speculated Wicked will take out the best picture musical or comedy category, while he is hearing Ralph Fiennes' Conclave will likely win in the best drama film category.
Comedian, Nikki Glaser, will be on hosting duties this year - her first time and also the first time in the awards show's history a woman will be hosting solo.
But it's the Golden Globes gift bags attendees will receive which have jaws dropping with their contents.
The Golden globes gift bags are valued at $1 million and A-listers also have a Moet Chandon vending machine available to quench their thirst on the night. Golden Globes/Robb Report

"This is very exciting for me because I love free stuff," Freund said.
"They get a $60,000 yacht cruise, an oxygen facial worth $1400, a stem cell facial worth $60,000, a $2000 bottle of Komos XO tequila and there's actually a trip to Tassie in there too, if you want to go on a whisky tour."
Among the major gifts also included in the swag are a $48,000 private flight to Finland to see the Northern Lights and a stash of rare Liber Pater wines.
Freund confirmed it was a bright sunny day in LA today, so the stars will also be able to quench their thirst with a $1 million Moet Chandon vending machine offering mini bottles of bubbly.
