If looks could kill Taylor Swift almost murdered Jo Koy tonight
Host Jo Koy is being severely trolled for his hosting gig at the 81st Golden Globes Awards. The comedian best known for Chelsea Lately tried to make a handful of jokes as a part of his hosting gig at the Golden Globes but all of them fell flat. Among one such joke was a joke he made about Taylor Swift and the NFL and the songstress very evidently disapproved of it. “The big difference between Golden Globes and the NFL…on Golden Globes, we have fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift,” he joked. The cameraman at the Globes did not waste a minute and panned the camera to Taylor Swift who sipped her drink and gave a deadly stare to Koy. If only looks could kill.

Christopher Nolan remembers Heath Ledger as he wins his first Golden Globe Award
Christopher Nolan and his team of Oppenheimer led the way at the Golden Globes Awards. While Oppenheimer won 5 Awards out of its 8 nominations, the auteur of the film himself took home the Best Direction Award for the film. Chris took center stage and warmed everyone’s heart as he remembered the late Heath Ledger who tragically passed away in 2008 at the young age of 28. Nolan who worked with Ledger on The Dark Knight had accepted his posthumous Best Supporting Actor award after his demise.
In his acceptance speech today, Nolan said, “The only time I have been on this stage before was accepting one of these on behalf of our dear friend, Heath Ledger. That was complicated and challenging for me and in the middle of speaking I glanced up. Robert Downey Jr caught my eye and gave me a look of love and support, same look he is giving me now and the love and support he has shown so many people in our community over so many years.”
Lily Gladstone scripted history at the 2024 Globes
Lily Gladstone's Best Actress Award in a Motion Picture (Drama) is one for the books as she became the first indigenous woman to win the award. Lily took home the coveted award for her portrayal of Mollie Burkhart in Killers of the Flower Moon. Proclaiming her historic win Lily said in her acceptance speech, “This is a historic win. It doesn't belong just to me. I'm holding it right now. I’m holding it with all of my beautiful sisters in the film at the table over here, and my mother, standing on all of your shoulders.”
“This is for every little rez kid, every little urban kid, every little native kid out there who has a dream,” she added.

We had a mini ‘Suits’ reunion at the Golden Globes Awards
Patrick J. Adams, Sarah Rafferty, Gina Torres, and Gabriel Macht came together to present the Best Drama Series award to the team of Succession and that's how we had our mini Suits reunion. The reunion was incomplete though, as Meghan Markle and Rick Hoffman were not in attendance at the Golden Globes Awards.
Kieran Culkin asked Pedro Pascal to ‘Suck It’
Kieran Culkin is the Golden Globes’ choice for Best Actor in a Drama Series and we are not complaining. Culkin, 41 won the award for his performance in Succession. As he took the stage to deliver an acceptance speech he recalled being nominated for a Golden Globes 20 years ago. “I was nominated for a Golden Globe 20 years ago, and when that moment passed I sort of remember thinking I’m never going to be back in this room again. Which was fine. Whatever.”
He then thanked Succession, the show that fetched him the coveted award tonight. “Thanks to Succession, I’ve been in here a couple of times, which is nice. But I sort of accepted I’m never going to be on stage, so this is a nice moment, thank you,” he said and proceeded to drag his fellow contender for the award, Pedro Pascal as he made a quirky remark. “Suck it, Pedro, Mine!” he said to which Pedro Pascal sitting in the audience played along with by fake crying.
Will Ferrel and Kristen Wigg save the day with their dance
The Saturday Night Live alums presented the Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy category to Paul Giamatti for The Holdovers. But before they could do so, they grooved to their “favorite song” as it kept interrupting their presentation speech each time they spoke. After host Jo Koy’s multiple failed attempts to make the attendees and the audience laugh, Ferrel and Wigg’s unscripted act indeed saved the night.
Bring on the Barbienheimer battle
Barbie and Oppenheimer, the two heavyweight films led the way at the Golden Globes Awards which opened the 2024 award ceremony session.

It clinched Best Picture Drama, Best Director and Best Actor in a Motion Picture, Best Original Score, and Best Supporting Actor.
