73rd Golden Globes Highlights

Last night, the film & entertainment industry’s awards season was kicked off as 93 members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association recognized excellence in film and television at the annual Golden Globe awards.

Here’s some highlights from the evening:

  • Of course, host Ricky Gervais upset the Internet


First, with some Caitlyn Jenner jokes during his monologue.  He said, quote, “I’ve changed, not as much as Bruce Jenner, obviously.”

He also said Caitlyn’s done a lot to break down stereotypes, but, quote, “She didn’t do a lot for women drivers.”

  • Mel Gibson was a presenter at the “Golden Globes” last night, and they let Ricky introduce him.  And he definitely let him have it  

  • Ricky was responsible for another awkward moment when he introduced Matt Damon as, quote, “the only person who Ben Affleck hasn’t been unfaithful to.”

  • Jim Carrey reportedly went off-script while presenting an award, joking about being a two-time Golden Globe winner, but needing a third

  • Slyvester Stallone got a standing ovation when he won Best Supporting Actor for “Creed”

But during his speech, he thanked everyone except director Ryan Coogler and star Michael B. Jordan

Some famous black people, including Samuel L. Jackson, called him out.

But sources say he went back onstage during the commercial break to correct the error

Obviously, that didn’t air

  • Lady Gaga was probably the most emotional winner of the night. Like Stallone, she thanked a ton of people, but forgot someone important:  her fiancé Taylor Kinney.  And he was there with her!

Gaga won Best Actress in a Limited Series for American Horror Story

By the way, Lady Gaga bumped into Leonardo DiCaprio’s arm on the way to the stage. His reaction was priceless:
