Kate Winslet is making big plans. Michelle Williams is defending Marilyn Monroe. Kelsey Grammer is making babies. (Or, at least babies news.)
A look at the doings and sayings backstage at the 69th Annual Golden Globes:

And He's Not Talking About Camille, Either: "There's a lot on my plate."â€"Boss winner Kelsey Grammer on his life, his series (about to start shooting season two)â€"and his baby-to-be. Make that, babies-to-be. Grammer lets it slip he and his wife are expecting twins.Â
So, Yeah, She Was Totally Robbed: Michelle Williams won for My Week With Marilyn; Marilyn Monroe wasn't even nominated for the movie's source material, The Prince and the Showgirl. Did the Globes snub Monroe, we ask Williams? "I have tremendous fondness for that performance," the actress says. "She's luminous."
Somebody's Been Doing Her IMDb Homework: Unprompted, Williams correctly points out that Monroe was honored on other occasions by the Hollywood Foreign Press, including once with the now-defunct World Film Favorite honor.Â
Albert Nobbs 2: The Sequel Has a Star!" I would like to one day play a man," Mildred Pierce winner Kate Winset confesses when asked about her as-yet unrealized ambitions.
At the Time, We Should Point Out, She Hadn't Seen the Show in a While: "Unless he's falling over and started drinking too much, I think he's doing OK."â€"Winslet, on Gervais, who hasn't exactly been winning over the insta-critics.
Er, Um...Sorry? Game of Thrones Peter Dinklage follows Williams to the press-conference stage, and he notices the room's different. As in, quieter. "You had so many questions for Michelle," he says.
After He Wins the Oscar, He'll Call It Even: "I hope he speaks to me for the next couple of years."â€"Madonna on the possible consequences of beating Elton John for Motion Picture Original Song.Â
Whatever Happened to the Biggest Party of the Year?! So, how did Madonna immediately plan to mark her victory? "I'm going to go back to my seat," she says.
"Capt. Von Trapp" Would've Worked, Too: Reporters, to a writer, respectfully address 82-year-old Christopher Plummer not as "Chris," or "Christopher," but as "Mr. Plummer."
So, Yes, He Is Overall Familiar With How the Internet Works: We inform Mr. Plummer (natch) that the Twitterverse, its Joan Rivers wing included, has had nothing but nice things to say tonight about the Beginners winner. Does he appreciate how rare that is? "Usually," he tells us, "they have no nice things to say about me at all."
A Couple of Teases: Idris Elba, a winner for Luther, handles a question on whether he'll be the next James Bond by saying he'd be "honored to play the part," while Jessica Lange handles a question on whether she'll be back for season two of American Horror Story by saying "nothing is definite yet." (Uh-huh.)Â
Me. Ow: Homeland's Morena Baccarin gets a question on her dress, the one that's quite striking, and, um, well-ventilated, and she doesn't seem happy. "Well, I'm glad I get to talk about the real stuff," she purrs.
Geez, Let's Hope He Doesn't Think Everybody Always Dresses So Fancy: "This is my first time in California," says The Artist composer Ludovic Bource.
