We figure since the Times shuttered an entire column so that Campbell Roberts could move to covering stories for the Arts section, we'd relay the results of last night's Tony awards at Radio City Music Hall. Plus, who doesn't love awards?

While Julia Roberts got zero love from critics, and just a tad more from out of town audiences, her BFF Oprah's shows, The Color Purple was recognized in nominations last night.

The biggest deals, however, are not the celebs, but the shows, and the award for best musical is the awards spot. This year, the best musical winner was Jersey Boys.

Despite the carping about jukebox musicals and a contest that seemed to gain heat by the minute, "Jersey Boys," the surprise hit about the Four Seasons as told through their songs, won the big prize — best musical — at last night's Tony Awards, as well as three more, including best actor for John Lloyd Young and, in one of the night's several upsets, best featured actor for Christian Hoff.

In addition, History Boys took home six awards, The Drowsey Chaperone picked up five, and Sweeny Todd snagged two.

As for Roberts, she expressed her insane jealousy by telling the cast of Jersey Boys they are "insanely talented people."
