'It's not going to be a celebrity-driven event that it has been in the past — no red carpet and nothing flashy,' Helene Hoehne tells The Hollywood Reporter of plans for the Jan. 9 winners announcement amid the ongoing boycott.
asked the HFPA president about landing the rapper for the early morning gig, what the Jan. 9 ceremony will look like and how she would respond to critics who say they should’ve waited another year before handing out another set of Golden Globes.We thought we would try something different this year because this has been an unusual year for us. He’s a very kind individual and a very special person. We really love him. I admire all of the art that he has done, he’s a great artist.
Now that nominations have been announced, will you invite nominees to a ceremony? What will that ceremony look like? We are really going to sit down after this [nominations event] and take a look at what Jan. 9 will look like. I think we all know that it’s not going to be a celebrity-driven event that it has been in the past — no red carpet and nothing flashy. But we still would like to celebrate what the HFPA has done and celebrate the best in film and television. Also, celebrate the good that we’ve done as an organization. We’ve donated more than $50 million to charitable organizations.
All I can say is that we’ve done the work. We’ve worked for eight months and sometimes you can still work while doing the work. We still watched TV and movies and we’re still cinema lovers, television lovers. And we did [watch all new content] while reforming and you can do both. You can reform and still do your job in between. That’s what we’re doing and that’s what we love doing. We’ve done it for 78 years and we always thought we would continue to do it.
