Comedienne Nikki Glaser hosted the Golden Globes on Sunday night, injecting humor into the ceremony while also playfully addressing the absence of thanks to God from award winners.
Comedienne Nikki Glaser hosted the Golden Globes on Sunday night, keeping the ceremony largely politics-free while taking some subtle jabs at political correctness. Later in the night, Glaser hilariously joked that none of the night’s award winners thanked God – “creator of the universe” – during their big moment. \“Alright, cast and crew are leading the way with 11 mentions,” she said. “Moms are holding strong with three shoutouts.

We mourned, we loved, we healed.
