Nicholson's Daughter Named Miss Golden Globe
Jack Nicholson's daughter Lorraine will serve as Miss Golden Globe at next year's prize-giving ceremony.
The children of celebrities are invited to take to the Golden Globes stage to help hand out awards.
Past Miss Golden Globes include Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson's daughter Dakota (2006) and Kevin Costner's daughter Lily (1992).
The Golden Globes have been good to Jack Nicholson--he's a six-time winner and a former Cecil B. DeMille Award honoree.
Lorraine, 16, is a budding actress, and has appeared in Click and Something's Gotta Give, which starred her father.
