Golden Globes joke about Taylor Swift was 'weird' and 'flat,' host Jo Koy admits after backlash
Fox News
The Golden Globes was full of flat jokes by host Jo Koy, but the standup says his joke about Taylor Swift fell particularly "flat."
"I think it was when the Taylor [Swift] one was just a little flat," he shared on GMA3. "It was a weird joke, I guess. But it was more on the NFL, you know what I mean? I was trying to make fun of the NFL using cutaways and how the Globes didn’t have to do that," he clarified. Caroline Thayer is an entertainment writer for Fox News Digital.

"So it was more of a jab toward the NFL. But it just didn’t come out that way," he said, reluctantly. Last night, he told Extra that he was trying to be positive. "It was a compliment. It was more like she could be more intimate tonight. That's all," he added.
