These are the winners of the 5th Annual Frat Pack Earmuff Awards in the so-called Glamour Categories.  The complete list of winners are available at EarmuffAwards.com.

Take a look below. See a trend?

Yep, The Hangover’s banner year held up with Earmuff Award voters who gave Todd Phillip’s comeback vehicle 11 total awards including Best Picture. The record for Earmuff wins in a single year is 12, held by both Wedding Crashers and Tropic Thunder.

Voters recognized The Hangover for what in Fratville is actually kind of a glamour category, Best Catch-Phrase. I happen to think “Slappin da Bass” will be the catch-phase that will be remembered years from now, but clearly Zach Galifianakis’ many lines of wisdom were beloved by this year’s voters.

What do you think of the winners? Do you feel that any nominee was “snubbed” by not winning?
