Each year, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) not only recognizes excellence in film and television by choosing who wins which awards, but also chooses the host of the Golden Globe Awards. However, choosing a host is a little more wacky than many people think.
Despite being an award show staple on the road to the Oscars, there’s a lot about the Golden Globes that people don’t know.
Seriously, for over 50 years there has been no host for the prestigious awards. Frankly, it’s hard to imagine a host being a staple of nearly every award show like this on Jan. 10, 2023, when first-time host Jerrod Carmichael made his way to the 80th Golden He will be on the stage at the Globe Awards.
From stand-up comedians to unexpected acting duos, the HFPA selects a very surprising host. Check out all the celebrities who have hosted (and who have hosted more than once) the Golden Globes over the years below!
