Nikki Glaser to host the 82nd Golden Globe Awards
A night of glamour and humor
The Golden Globe Awards, a night that celebrates the best in television and film, is set to return on January 5, 2025. This year, the event will be hosted by the talented and witty Nikki Glaser. The show will air from 8-11 p.m. ET/PT on CBS and will also be available for streaming on Paramount+ in the U.S.
Nikki Glaser’s excitement and anticipation
Nikki Glaser, known for her sharp wit and comedic prowess, expressed her excitement about hosting the prestigious event. “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. Glaser’s enthusiasm is palpable, and her unique comedic style is sure to bring a fresh and entertaining perspective to the awards show.
The challenge and thrill of live hosting
Hosting the Golden Globes is no small feat. The event is live, unpredictable, and attended by Hollywood’s biggest stars. Glaser acknowledged the challenges, saying, “It’s an exciting, yet challenging gig because it’s live, unpredictable, and in front of Hollywood’s biggest stars (who also might be getting wasted while seated next to their recent exes).” Her candid and humorous take on the potential chaos of the night adds to the anticipation.
Following in the footsteps of comedy legends
Glaser joins a prestigious list of comedians who have hosted the Golden Globes, including Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Ricky Gervais, Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers, and Jerrod Carmichael. Reflecting on this, she said, “Some of my favorite jokes of all time have come from past Golden Globes opening monologues when Tina, Amy, or Ricky have said exactly what we all didn’t know we desperately needed to hear.” Glaser hopes to continue this tradition, bringing her own brand of humor to the stage.
A dream job for a comedy enthusiast
For Glaser, hosting the Golden Globes is a dream come true. “This is truly a dream job. Plus, I no longer have to feel guilty for every TV show and movie I’ve binged over the past year. It was all worth it,” she joked. Her love for television and film, combined with her comedic talent, makes her the perfect host for the event.
The Golden Globes: A night to remember
The Golden Globe Awards are not just about celebrating the best in television and film; they are also a night of comedy and entertainment. The event encourages a light-hearted and humorous take on the industry, making it a unique and enjoyable experience for both the attendees and the viewers at home.
