Paula's new bob framed her pretty face perfectly and highlighted her natural features while her white micro-mini dress with a sheer neckline and sleeves showed off her stunning figure and slender legs.

The ladies seemed to be having a great time as they presented the award nominees.

The movie 12 Years a Slave led the pack with seven nominations including Best Feature, followed by Alexander Payne's comedy Nebraska with six nominations.

Other nominees for best-picture included J.C. Chandor's shipwreck drama All is Lost, Noah Baumbach's New York tale Frances Ha and the Coen brothers' folk music story Inside Llewyn Davis.

As for Paula herself, she has plenty to smile about.

She and Robin, 36, have been together since they were 16 years old and got married in 2005. They have a three-year-old son Julian.

The Blurred Lines singer had no qualms revealing the finer details of their 'spicy' relationship in an October interview with Elle magazine.

When asked if Paula listens to his famous tracks to get in the mood, Robin answered in the affirmative.

He confessed: 'Yes. In fact, she likes to do it more than ever now. Sometimes she'll even play groupie for me,'

'The spice is not our problem. We're overspiced. We could probably take a few spices off the shelf.'

The former Duets mentor credits his father, Growing Pains star Alan Thicke, with teaching him all about swagger.

'My dad was single my whole pubescent period,' the Lost Without U hitmaker said.

'He had Ms. Alabama, Ms. Dominican Republic - every week. I was like, "Dang, Pops!" He had an indoor jacuzzi, and he frequented it.

'The first time I saw a naked woman was when I went to take a shower one morning before school. I was like, "Who is this girl in my shower?"'

Enduring love: Paula and Robin, 36, have been together since they were 16 years old and got married in 2005

would have left it a longer bob just to keep it a bit more feminine.. she has VERY strong shoulders which can come across quite manly dependant on what she wears.
