The 82nd annual Golden Globes were a night to remember thanks to Nikki Glaser's hilarious hosting, Zoe Saldaña's emotional acceptance speech, and more.
Making an awards show stand out doesn't take much. Between hosts that fall flat (and can't always read a room) and a historical lack of excitement, it doesn't take much for an award show to take us from super excited to snooze fest. Which is why we're always looking for moments that keep us on our toes and make us feel something.
From world-class zingers by comedian and host Nikki Glaser, to a surprisingly cute appearance from one of Hollywood’s unlikeliest couples, and plenty of emotional speeches that made us feel warm and fuzzy inside, the night was surprisingly one to remember. Below, we've rounded up some of our favorite — and most noteworthy — moments from the show. Prepare to sob. To sign up as an awards show host is to sign on for public scrutiny and at least a few less-than-flattering internet memes, and the past few years have seen the Golden Globes bestow the honor on some questionable choices. The self-identified “first-time Golden Globes loser” has become known for her sharp and timely wit, and as host of Hollywood’s first awards show of the season, she Glaser was, surprisingly and not in line with many of her predecessors, actually funny. The comedian managed to balance the fine line between making a critical commentary on Hollywood while also keeping the banter light. From complimenting Timothée Chalamet on his new — and wispy — goatee, to calling out rapper Diddy’s recent arrest and expressing her amusement over the fact that she'd just met the person who she claimed had stolen her identity, Glaser kept the audience engaged and entertained. The 82nd annual Golden Globes started strong thanks to actress Zoe Saldaña’s emotional acceptance speech. Taking home the award for best supporting actress in a movie for her role in, a tearful Saldaña thanked fellow nominees and castmates Selena Gomez and Karla Sofía Gascón, speaking to the trio’s sisterhood and continued support of one another. “I know that a competition,” Saldaña said, “but all that I have witnessed is just us showing up for each other and celebrating each other, and it’s just so beautiful
