Kieran Culkin, 'Shōgun,' Ali Wong win at Golden Globes

The Golden Globes, which host Nikki Glaser introduced as “Ozempic's biggest night,” got underway Sunday with awards spread around for “Emilia Pérez," “A Real Pain," and “Conclave," as Hollywood's thus-far unpredictable awards season remained hard to pin in the early going.

The Golden Globes, which host Nikki Glaser introduced as “Ozempic's biggest night,” got underway Sunday with awards spread around for “Emilia Pérez," “A Real Pain," and “Conclave," as Hollywood's thus-far unpredictable awards season remained hard to pin in the early going.

Comedian Nikki Glaser kicked off the 82nd Golden Globes, with a promise: “I'm not here to roast you.”

But Glaser, a stand-up whose breakthrough came in a withering roast of Tom Brady, made her way around the ballroom of the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California, on Sunday picking out plenty of targets in an opening monologue she had worked out extensively in comedy clubs beforehand.

Glaser, hosting the Globes two weeks before the inauguration of Donald Trump, reserved perhaps her most cutting line for the whole room of Hollywood stars.

“You could really do anything ... except tell the country who to vote for,” said Glaser. “But it’s OK, you’ll get ’em next time ... if there is one. I’m scared."

She then turned toward “Wicked” star Ariana Grande with a request: "Ariana, hold my finger.”

Glaser complimented Timothée Chalamet, nominated for his performance as Bob Dylan in “A Complete Unknown,” for having “the most gorgeous eye-lashes on your upper lip.”
