The Golden Globes

Amy Poehler and Tina Fey have kicked off the 2013 Golden Globes with some of the same harshness we have previously seen from Ricky Gervais. They are funny and as fantastic as you would expect! Claire Danes (Homeland) is definitely the best dressed in red Versace. Thank God it’s entertaining! Apparently Meryl Streep is not there as she has the flu – but she’s AMAZING in it.

Everyone who is everyone is there of course and this is the best award show there is – as they DRINK! This year  Michael J. Fox’s son Sam and Clint Eastwood’s daughter Francesca are Mr. and Miss Golden Globes

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association has announced Ricky Gervais will return to host the Golden Globes for a third straight year.

After being criticized for an unexpectedly bland performance during his first turn as Globes host, Gervais drew fire the second time around by taking volatile shots at, for example, A-listers Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp’s performances in The Tourist, Scientology and Robert Downey Jr.’s past drug use, and by introducing presenters in snarky ways (e.g. dubbing Bruce Willis “Ashton Kutcher’s dad”).

In the wake of that broadcast, Gervais went on to defend his performance, saying, “I’m sorry if [people] were offended but I’m not sorry for anything I said. They hired me for a job and if they didn’t want me, they shouldn’t have hired me.

“I mustn’t come out there as everyone’s mate and schmooze. That’s nauseating,” he added. “I’ve got to come out there and I’ve got to roast them.”

The Golden Globes will air Monday January 16th on Foxtel.

 

Ricky Gervais has been asked to host the Golden Globe Awards again.

The British funnyman caused controversy earlier this year with his second stint in charge at the prestigious ceremony – which saw him poke fun at a string of stars including Robert Downey Jr., Charlie Sheen and Hugh Hefner, as well as organisers the Hollywood Foreign Press Association – and is surprised to have been asked to return again next year, though he is unlikely to take up the offer.

He said: ‘NBC have offered me it, they think they can swing the Hollywood Foreign Press. I love NBC, I love the fact they stuck by me through it.’

Asked if he was considering the offer, he added: ‘I am but I shouldn’t do it. It’s a second encore. Don’t do a second encore. I don’t think I should do it. What am I going back as?’

Ricky admitted he ‘never expected’ the backlash from critics after his last stint in charge, but insists he never set out to shock or did anything overly controversial.

Speaking at the Media Guardian Edinburgh International Television Festival, he said: ‘Just because you are offended doesn’t mean you are right. People fall into this myth that I’m a shock comedian. I’ve never been that. People say I crossed the line but I didn’t draw the fking line, you did.

‘It wasn’t a roomful of wounded soldiers. It was the most privileged people on the planet who spend all day pretending to be someone else. I teased them, I ribbed them.’

The ‘Office’ star also revealed he had been asked to present the coveted Academy Awards – known as the Oscars – but would never accept the job.

He explained: ‘They said to my agent would he like to be on our list. I couldn’t do the Oscars. It’s a thankless task for a comedian. They don’t want to hear jokes, they want to hear if they have won the most important award of their career.’
