The shiny, the frozen faced and the slightly emaciated were out in force this Saturday to celebrate the 39th Daytime Emmy Awards, aka soap and talk show's annual hootenanny.
Big winners on the day include Regis Philbin and Kelly Ripa who nailed Best Talk Show hosts and Most Outstanding Talk Show (you were robbed, Ellen).
And in an inspired and not-at-all random piece of casting, Anderson Cooper and Oscar the Grouch hosted the awards.
