Comedian Nikki Glaser to host Golden Globes 2025
Aug 28, 2024
Los Angeles [US], August 28 : Comedian Nikki Glaser is the host for the next edition of Golden Globe Awards.
Glaser will host the 82nd annual Golden Globes in January 2025, The Hollywood Reporter reported.
Excited about it, Glaser in a statement said, "I am absolutely thrilled to be hosting the Golden Globes. It's one of my favorite nights of television and now I get a front row seat (actually, I think I have to host from the stage)."
She added, "The Golden Globes is not only a huge night for TV and film, but also for comedy. It's one of the few times that show business not only allows, but encourages itself to be lovingly mocked (at least I hope so). (God I hope so). It's an exciting, yet challenging gig because it's live, unpredictable, and in front of Hollywood's biggest stars (who also might be getting wasted while seated next to their recent exes)."
She said that it's a dream job.
Glaser continued, "Some of my favorite jokes of all time have come from past Golden Globes opening monologues when Tina, Amy, or Ricky have said exactly what we all didn't know we desperately needed to hear. I just hope to continue in that time honored tradition (that might also get me canceled). This is truly a dream job. Plus, I no longer have to feel guilty for every TV show and movie I've binged over the past year. It was all worth it. (Below Deck: Sailing Yacht Season Four will be nominated, right?)."
The 82nd annual Golden Globes will air on Sunday, January 5.
