Bohemian Rhapsody Wins Big At Golden Globes

On the TV side, Sharp Objects, The Americans, Killing Eve and Pose each scooped up multiple nominations.

HIGHLIGHTS:

Oh and Samberg proved that they are quite possibly the sweetest and most genuinely likable pair in Hollywood by keeping things clean yet funny, while still managing to crack faux racially charged jokes and sexually harassing audience members.

Without discussing politics with as much fiery passion as other awards show hosts have in recent years, the pair highlighted the drumbeat of change happening in Hollywood, specifically name-checking Roma, Pose, Black Pantherand Crazy Rich Asians as steps forward in inclusive representation.

It wasn’t all sweetness though: the pair roasted Lady Gaga for allegedly “stealing” Madonna‘s observation, saying: “There can be 100 people in a room and 99 of them don’t believe in you, and one does, and that one is Bradley Cooper.”

Oh also jokingly called out Emma Stone for playing an Asian role in Aloha, and Stone yelled, “I’m sorry!” from the audience.

They also weren’t afraid of tough love. Instead of feting the audience with pizza or champagne per usual, the hosts brought out a team of medical professionals to give the stars flu shots. They encouraged anti-vaxxers to put napkins over their heads so they could be passed over.

Steve Carell introduced the incomparable Carol Burnett with a hilarious montage of clips before she accepted the inaugural Carol Burnett Award to honor her achievements and contributions in television.

“I am really gobsmacked by this,” Burnett said after he introduced her. “Does this mean I get to accept it every year?”

Speaking of gobsmacked, Lady Gaga burst into tears when she learned that her A Star Is Born “Shallows” won Best Song. “I’m going to talk for a minute, because she’s indisposed,” fellow songwriter Mark Ronson quipped, dubbing her “the captain of the S.S. Shallow…the genius comes from you.”

After winning Best Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture, Regina King called for “Time’s Up Time’s Two,” and called for more inclusivity and equality in both work and representation in Hollywood.

Oh made history by hosting the Golden Globes and winning for her performance in Killing Eve; she is the first Asian woman to host a major awards show and win multiple Globes. She thanked her parents in her acceptance speech, both of whom were in the audience.

Christian Bale thanked Satan after winning Best Actor in a Comedy for his role playing Dick Cheney in Vice, as one does. “To my beautiful wife, who said saying less is more. She knows some of the dumb crap that comes out of my mouth…Thank you to Satan, who gave me inspiration on how to play this role.”

Jeff Bridges won the Cecil B. DeMille Award and managed to discuss geodesic domes, cufflinks and the connection of the individual to society. “We can turn this ship around” and “create a healthy planet for all of us,” he gushed.

Olivia Colman thanked her “bi***es” after winning Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy.

RED CARPET FASHION:

Best in Show:

Australian Cody Fern did not come here to play. The man is used to stealing scenes with his star turn in Versace, and he continued his mean winning street, wearing a full face of subtle but stunning makeup, a half-sheer shirt, tucked into tightly cinched, flowing black trousers and hoofed goat shoes.

Lady Gaga, elegant haute oddball extraordinaire also did not disappoint. She made the unusual but awe-inspiring choice of matching her ice blue flowing gown to newly ice blue locks, tucked into a chignon. She needed two, not one, dress handlers to deal with the majesty of her train.

Taraji P. Henson wore a custom green Vera Wang with a plunging V-neck. Stunning.

Julia Roberts was every inch the icon in a golden and black pantsuit by Stella McCartney … with a train. Can a look be equally ethereal and fierce?

Uhh…

Rachel Brosnahan and Claire Foy wore basically the same yellow you guys. OMG, cute?! While they were clearly not intending to #twin, the similarity of their distinctive sunny hued, spaghetti-strapped floor-length gowns were not lost on keen observers. Foy’s was bedazzled though, so there’s that.

Rotten Tomatoes:

Accused sexual harasser Ryan Seacrest wears … a Time’s Up bracelet. The internet was not pleased.

The Mindy Project’s Danny Castellano is a platinum blond now. (In stark contrast to his dark brows and salt n’ pepper beard). NOPE.
