Comedian Nikki Glaser criticized Hollywood celebrities who endorsed Kamala Harris, saying during her opening monologue at the Golden Globes that the stars were so influential they could do anything “except tell the country who to vote for.”
Nikki Glaser also joked about Sean “Diddy” Combs, NBC’s streaming service Peacock, and even Dwayne Johnson.
“I’m not here to roast you tonight,” Glaser told the celebrity crowd gathered Sunday at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills. “How could I, really?” You are all so famous, so talented, so powerful. I mean, you can really do anything…I mean, except tell the country who to vote for.
Later in his monologue, Glaser took aim at Diddy’s sex trafficking scandal.
Speaking of the movie Challengersshe said: “This movie was more sexually charged than Diddy’s credit card. I’m also upset. The afterparty won’t be as good this year. But we must move forward! Stanley Tucci’s delusion just doesn’t have the same ring to it.”
Glaser also joked on the NBC streaming service Peacock.
“Even Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne did TV this year,” she said. “He is nominated for PeacockIt’s “The Day of the Jackal.” He’s a top secret sniper that no one can find because he’s on Peacock.”
The comedian also made fun of Dwayne Johnson’s brand of tequila – just before introducing Johnson as a presenter.
“Remember: the purpose of being nominated is not to win an award. No, the purpose of being nominated is to make a tequila brand so popular you’ll never need to make art again.
