It might be one of the most uncomfortable moments in recent live TV history.
Jerrod Carmichael, the host of the 80th Annual Golden Globes this past January, basically broke down how the Golden Globes … broke down.
The Golden Globes, often referred to as “Hollywood’s Best Party of the Year” was already in trouble at that point. The 2022 Golden Globes weren’t even broadcast.
In his monologue, Carmichael basically called out the Hollywood Foreign Press Association – the nonprofit organization of foreign journalists responsible for nominating and choosing the Globe winners – for not having any Black members. In the end, the HFPA disbanded and the ownership of the Globes was transferred to Eldridge Industries, a holding company that co-owns Dick Clark Productions, the new producers of the Golden Globes.
It’s important to note that the other owner of Dick Clark Productions is Penske Media Corporation, a conglomerate that runs a lot of big players in the entertainment media industry like The Hollywood Reporter, Deadline, Rolling Stone, Billboard and Variety.
Influence from experts with access to international film festivals, press junkets and years of covering the scene? Totally. A conflict of interest? Pretty much. That’s Hollywood though, right?
Much of the issue with the HFPA was their brand of exclusivity. In the past, in order for a film to get the attention of the HFPA, they had to attend press conferences where only HFPA members were in attendance. The new arrangement levels out the playing field dramatically as the voting pool now has 300 journalists from around the world, tipping the diversity scales at about 60%, according to a press released that was quoted by Reuters.
Now the Globes will air live, coast to coast on CBS directly after the NFL’s Sunday Doubleheader. It will also stream live on Paramount + and be available on the CBS app.
As of posting time of this blog, there still hasn’t been an announcement about who will host the ceremony on January 7, 2024. Whomever has the pleasure of following up Jerrod Carmichael’s performance also has the task of introducing two new awards: Best Stand-Up Comedian on Television, and Cinematic and Box Office Achievement.
We’ve made a list below of all the nominees and included the video of official nomination ceremony. Stay tuned for Hollywood.com‘s wrap-up of the series in a few weeks!
