When, where to watch Golden Globes 2025
The 2025 Golden Globe Awards will be held on Sunday, January 5, 2025, at The Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles. This year's ceremony is particularly awaited as it comes after a controversial one last year when host Jo Koy offended many with his inappropriate humor. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), which organizes the awards, has been working hard to redeem the event's reputation after it was nearly canceled in 2021 over racism and sexism allegations.
Nikki Glaser to host the 2025 Golden Globe Awards
Comedian Nikki Glaser has been selected to host the 2025 Golden Globe Awards. The move comes as an effort to move on from last year's Koy and Taylor Swift controversy. Although a self-proclaimed Swiftie, Glaser has previously been criticized for remarks about Swift's looks that resurfaced in the singer's 2020 documentary, Miss Americana.
Glaser's excitement and experience ahead of hosting
Glaser said she was excited to host the Golden Globes. "I am absolutely thrilled to be hosting the Golden Globes. It's one of my favorite nights of television and now I get a front row seat (actually, I think I have to host from the stage)," she said. The Ohio-raised comedian has had a great 2024 with performances in Netflix's The Roast of Tom Brady and her hit HBO stand-up special Someday You'll Die.
