Helena Bonham Carter Accepts Best Actress Award, Hatches Tiny Spider Babies From Her Hat

I’ve always thought that Helena Bonham Carter is one of the most beautiful women in showbusiness. She has a sultry sexiness that most women can’t pull off. But she is also really adept at making herself look ridiculous and unattractive.

Here, Carter accepts the Best Actress award for Sweeney Todd during the Jameson Empire Awards while wearing a spidernest hat–most likely given to her by husband Tim Burton– that has hatched tiny babies who’ve crawled down the mesh to hang about her head like a pig-pen-esque halo.

The hat was obviously pregnant, but I refuse to speculate on whether or not the actress wearing it is preggers as well. The picture makes it look as if she could be, but  the last time the 43-year-old actress became pregnant in 2007, she had to undergo fertility treatments, so it’s not likely.

        There a lot of old and weird threads on this site that have attracted the weirdos like dust bunnies that gather under that wardrobe your grandmother hasn’t moved in five decades.

      • V says:

        Hahaha is that thread STILL going on?

      • Lynn says:

        The J&K plus 8 crazies are like the Tribles in that long ago and far away Star Trek episode.

        A couple showed up, and they’ve been replicating like two wildcats in a sleeping bag ever since.

    This is actuallly an improvement for her, she usually looks way crazier.

  5. Kyle says:

    She was horrible in Sweeney Todd. The whole movie was horrible actually. Nothing will beat the actual show.

  6. V says:

    She’s receiving an award for Sweeney Todd NOW? Not, oh, a year and a half ago? What?

    *shivers* over the thought of spiders in her hair.

  9. manda says:

    I hated Sweeney Todd. I TRIED to like it. I even sat through the whole movie! It was way, way terrible. I’m pretty much a firm believer that a musical should include singing talent.

    Now for the next musical that cannot possibly good, but i have to see it anyway…Repo! The Opera!

    but anyway… I still like Helena, she’s neat.

  10. Guess who says:

    youcan all talk about us at the J&K site all you want, I will say Iam so glad you are not there, Melissa, your filthy mouth should be kicked off any blog, that is about as bad as any thing I have heard out of woman or man, talk about J&K, well I’m sure they fear the almighty to much to use that kindof talk.
    So you can’t stand our site well “thank God” you are not there.

    I’m sooo glad she won! She totally deserved it, she was spectacular in Sweeney Todd, and it’s one of my favourite musicals!
