Three Sets of Golden Globes
Hours after her Golden Globes win for Hacks, Jean Smart inadvertently stepped in it…as one does. “With ALL due respect, during Hollywood’s season of celebration, I hope any of the networks televising the upcoming awards will seriously consider NOT televising them and donating the revenue they would have garnered to the victims of the fires and the firefighters.” You see, Jean, the problem is that revenues come from ad sales. No telecast, no ads, no revenue. Many of her peers ganged up on the designing woman saying that no awards shows would put them all out of work. Her heart was in the right place, but perhaps this idea wasn’t fully baked.
Speaking of the Golden Globes, Nikki Glaser knocked it out of the park – all while having her own Golden Globes proudly propped up front and center. Days before, most people never heard of her – making this overnight success one of the longest nights in history. Rumor has it that she earned just over $400K for the gig – roughly half of what they paid Ricky Gervais. Even our own Jerrod Carmichael (far more of an unknown than Glaser) got half a mil for hosting in 2023. Sounds like a gender issue to me. The Nikkster said she didn’t care about the money. “I honestly would have done it for free.” Nikki, Nikki, Nikki – never say things like that out loud.
