Patricia Arquette is praying the writers' strike ends before the Golden Globe Awards on Sunday, so she can be there if she wins. The star is nominated in the Best Performance By An Actress In A Television Series - Drama category for her performance in Medium, but will be obliged to miss the January 13 event if a deal can't be struck with the Writer's Guild Of America.
And Arquette is so angry she'll be forced to sit out the event, she has vowed not to picket on behalf of the writers alongside other actors and actresses.
She says, "It was such a great honor. I didn't want to diminish that. I wanted to show my appreciation to the Hollywood foreign press (who vote for Golden Globe winners). They do good work in Hollywood. They do a lot of philanthropic work. They really tried to come to an agreement with the Writer's Guild. I still need to honor the strike - but I won't picket it."
