Golden Globes to go ahead despite TV blackout over diversity row
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association - which votes on the Globes and has been under fire due to allegations of racism, sexism, bullying and corruption - said winners of the annual film and television awards will be announced on 9 January .
The prestigious Globes ceremony usually kicks off Hollywood's glitzy award season, and draws a who's who of Tinseltown A-listers to a lavish and champagne-soaked ceremony., after major Hollywood studios suspended their involvements with the HFPA, and stars such as Tom Cruise and Scarlett Johansson slammed the group.
The controversy stemmed from a report in February that the HFPA had no Black members in its ranks, although discontent with the group had been simmering in Hollywood for years.
