The 2009 Film Independent's Spirit Award Winners

Penelope Cruz, Michelle Williams, Cameron Diaz, and Mariah Carey were photographed arriving to the 2009 Film Independent's Spirit Awards at the Santa Monica Pier in

yeah, I have a feeling tomorrow night's awards will go somewhat differently, though I can understand a few of those.

I never realized how silly these awards are until now. It seems like each group gives awards to their favorites so in the end (award season) everyone get's awards.
