Good for her. Congratulations Sarah.

I enjoyed that performance. If only Sarah could have an orchestra with her at all shows.

It was a surprise to find it. I didn't know they had an award for such an catagory. It was an excellent performance and so unique to see.

I'm not to familuar with the other nominees in this catagory. I think it will be exciting to see if she can take it.

Is it time for a new dress?

Cameron Bay.

wow, Juno and Gemini nominations this year..what great recognition! I hope she wins.

wow - yay Sarah!

and yes, that was a gorgeous performance.

the Gemini Awards are interesting.. there's actually an award for "Best Live Sporting Event", with nominees "2005 Tim Horton's Brier," "CFL on TSN: Wendy's Friday Night Football: Montreal at Hamilton" and "Stanley Cup Finals: Calgary VS Tampa: Game Seven". lol

Sarah confirmed yesterday that she will not be able to attend this event but seemed very happy with the nomination.

That seems excessive.....

With 94 Categories, that makes an average of 2.17 nominations per category.
*cough cough* biased! *cough cough*

My girlfriend is also nominated for an award at the Geminis and will be attending. I've suggested to her that she accept Sarah's Gemini for her should she win. :wink:

And here's also to Ben Mulroney not winning anything.

Holy Crap, I thought that was like...a combined total from previous years....

Unfortunately Sarah didn't win the Gemini Award this year.
