Why do the Globes split actors into two categories?
The Globes, unlike the , have split actors into two categories since 1951. The studios that submit films pick their own lane, but the Globes can overrule them, and occasionally do.
The reason given for the split in the official Globes history is so 鈥渘o genre would be slighted.鈥 But the division has practical perks for Oscar campaigns, by keeping twice as many major nominees and winners in the conversation early in awards season.

Glaser keeps her monologue mostly clean
Standup comic and first-time Golden Globes host Nikki Glaser opened the show with pointed jokes but not the barbed roasts she鈥檚 known for. A few of her lines:
鈥淲elcome to the 82nd Golden Globes, Ozempic鈥檚 biggest night.鈥
鈥淚f you鈥檙e watching on Paramount+, you have six days left to cancel your free trial.鈥
鈥淚 loved 鈥榃icked,鈥 my boyfriend loved 鈥榃icked,鈥 my boyfriend鈥檚 boyfriend REALLY loved 鈥榃icked.鈥欌
To a mustachioed Timothee Chalamet: 鈥淵ou have such beautiful eyelashes on your upper lip.鈥
Glaser said she said she doesn鈥檛 plan to roast the room because the people in it are powerful and can do anything 鈥渆xcept tell people who to vote for.鈥
She was not nearly as ruthless or as dirty as she was in May at the Netflix 鈥淩oast of Tom Brady鈥 in a show-stealing appearance that helped her get the Globes gig.
The Golden Globes have begun
The show is underway from Beverly Hills, California, airing live on CBS.
What does host Nikki Glaser have in store for her starry audience and viewers at home? We鈥檒l find out.
Twenty-seven awards across film and TV will be handed out tonight.
Will politics play a starring role?
The Globes, taking place about two weeks before the inauguration of , could get very political if presenters and winners are so inclined to continue what鈥檚 been a mutually antagonistic relationship between Hollywood and Trump. That may be unlikely, though; so far in Hollywood鈥檚 awards season, most nominees have tried to stay out of the fray.
That鈥檚 with a major exception, though, in 鈥淭he Apprentice,鈥 . Both were nominated by the Globes. Stan was also nominated a second time for his performance in
Stars glimmer in gold
Preparations for the Golden Globe red carpet looks often occur months in advance but somehow actors emerged onto the red carpet in color-coordinated looks with several golden gowns making their appearance.
Actor Mindy Kaling, who is set to present at the ceremony, stunned in a gold strapless Ashi Studio dress. Actor Cate Blanchett took a golden Louis Vuitton look from her closet and rewore it to the ceremony. Golden stones were added to update the look from the Cannes Film Festival carpet in 2024. Actor Eiza Gonz谩lez also shone in a shimmery gold sequined dress.
Spider-Man crossover: Andrew Garfield helps Zendaya
With 10 minutes to showtime, the crowd was anxiously trying to make it to their seats in time while getting in hellos.
Andrew Garfield gave a hand to Zendaya, holding her train as she walked down the stairs.
Angelina Jolie slinked through the crowd mostly unbothered with her daughter close by, walking past Daniel Craig and Kate Winslet happily catching up.
Can the Globes pull it off?
After a rocky few years and the disbanding of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the have seemingly stabilized. Now the question is: Can they still put on a good show?
The show will seek to rekindle some of the frothy comic energy of the days when Ricky Gervais, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler hosted. Last year鈥檚 comeback edition, hosted by , was widely panned, but it delivered where it counted: to about 10 million viewers, according to Nielsen. CBS signed up for five more years.
鈻 Here鈥檚
Chalamet is anything but unknown
Inside, Timoth茅e Chalamet had a hard time making his way to the table, with someone stopping him every few steps to congratulate him on 鈥淎 Complete Unknown.鈥 He made a beeline to Luca Guadaganino, though for a catch-up with his old director.
Harrison Ford found his way to the 鈥淐omplete Unknown鈥 table first to say hi to his 鈥淚ndiana Jones鈥 director James Mangold and greet Elle Fanning. He too wanted to get a word with Chalamet who had finally planted himself in his seat.
Steve Martin meanwhile found a quiet-ish spot at his table to check his phone. Martin Short soon joined him. Sharon Stone found them and brought some energy to the table.
鈥楤abygirl鈥 has entered the building
Dressed in Balenciaga, no one is having a better night than 18-time nominee and six-time Golden Globe winner
鈥淚鈥檓 incredibly grateful to be invited to be here, to be included,鈥 the star said. 鈥淎nd (I鈥檓) so happy that has been recognized and that people are going to see it. So just thank you to the fans, thank you to everyone.鈥
This year, she鈥檚 up for performance by a female actor in a motion picture, drama, for 鈥淏abygirl.鈥
What鈥檚 for dinner?
The Golden Globes, known as the 鈥減arty of the year,鈥 will bring back the celeb-beloved Nobu Restaurants group.
Chef Nobu Matsuhisa returns with several signature dishes, highlighted by The Gold Standard Roll 鈥 sushi that includes king crab inside, topped with salmon, gold flakes and caviar, and yuzu sauce on the side. The dish is served in the restaurant for $77.
Other dishes from Matsuhisa include seaweed tacos, yellowtail jalapenos, sashimi salad, black cod and three pieces of tuna, white fish and salmon sushi.
A Fanning family affair
Elle and Dakota Fanning swanned into the ballroom to pose for photographs. But the sisters had one more to add to the group: Grandma.
鈥淐an we get some with grandma?鈥 Dakota asked. The photogs obliged happily.
They made their way down to the main floor where Dakota stopped to talk to her 鈥淩ipley鈥 costar Andrew Scott. Scott then beelined to Kerry Washington, already chatting with Glenn Close, and the three did a little dance.
Fanning by then had found Zo毛 Kravitz who she excitedly greeted.
With just 40 minutes to showtime, few, however, had committed to taking their seats and indulging in the Nobu sushi.
Colman Domingo shared the profits of 鈥楽ing Sing鈥
Colman Domingo says he hopes the profit-sharing model of his film 鈥淪ing Sing鈥 鈥 where the whole cast gets the same pay and everyone who works on the film gets a stake in its earnings 鈥 can become the norm.
The tiny film about a prison theater program used ex-inmates as actors and earned Domingo a Golden Globe nomination for best actor in a drama alongside actors from big studio movies.
鈥淚t feels like a no-brainer to me,鈥 Domingo said on the Globes red carpet, 鈥漞specially when everyone鈥檚 taking a risk together and getting paid such a low amount. The idea is making sure that everyone has ownership of it 鈥 and everyone has an equity when it succeeds.鈥
She loves that witch
First-time Golden Globe nominee is over the moon.
鈥淚t鈥檚 very out of body,鈥 she said of her nomination for performance by a female actor in a television series, musical or comedy. 鈥淚 love so much. I love that witch so much. And so, to have the show recognized at all 鈥 has been really sweet for all of us.鈥
Glen Powell loves his family
Looking back on a huge 2024, Glen Powell says his family is crucial to his success and keeping him centered.
Powell attended the Golden Globes with his parents, posing with them on the red carpet.
鈥淵ou know, I got my family,鈥 the 鈥淗it Man鈥 star said when asked how he remains grounded after such a groundbreaking year. 鈥淚 got my sisters, cousins, my family keeps me grounded. That鈥檚 for me 鈥 that鈥檚 the key. They鈥檙e here with me tonight, so it鈥檚 like 鈥 It never feels like a storm when you have ... them around.鈥
Cate Blanchett recycles Cannes Film Festival gown
Actor Cate Blanchett shone in a gold sequined gown from Louis Vuitton that she previously wore on the Cannes Film Festival carpet in 2024. It鈥檚 not the first time Blanchette has reworn a red carpet look in sustainable fashion. She famously rewore looks to the Venice Film Festival in 2020.
The actress is nominated for Best Performance by a female actor for 鈥淒isclaimer.鈥
Wait, where鈥檚 鈥60 Minutes鈥?
Sorry, 鈥60 Minutes鈥 heads.
The Golden Globes are tonight on CBS, but the network鈥檚 NFL coverage, not the long-running TV newsmagazine, will be the lead-in and could last until near showtime.
While 鈥60 Minutes鈥 is being preempted this week, it鈥檚 slated to return Jan. 12.
Director Jon Chu pushes against pessimism
鈥淲颈肠办别诲鈥 director Jon Chu says he鈥檚 happy some people see his film as subversive.
Walking the Golden Globes red carpet not long after diapering his newly arrived fifth child, Chu said, 鈥淲e hope that in this time of cynicism and pessimism and maybe even cruelty we rise up for who we are and take control of the story. I love that we get to do those things in a delicious little musical.鈥
鈥淲颈肠办别诲鈥 is nominated for four Globes including best musical or comedy film.
Baby Nessarose hits the Golden Globes carpet
The darling of 鈥淲icked,鈥 Cesily Collette Taylor posed for cameras on the Golden Globe鈥檚 red carpet in her white and black polka dot dress.
Fans of the film were taken with the child star鈥檚 delivery of the line 鈥淵eah!鈥 as a young Nessarose. (The adult Nessarose is played by Marissa Bode.)
Taylor, who accessorized with an adorable white bow and a white beaded bag, beamed on the carpet in her pink-rimmed wheelchair.
Monica Barbaro gets another take
The Golden Globes red carpet is heading up with stars, like 鈥淗it Man鈥 star Glen Powell who flashed his high-wattage smile as he walked the carpet arm in arm with his mother.
Elsewhere, his old 鈥淭op Gun: Maverick鈥 co-star Monica Barbaro tripped on her blush gown while walking toward a roaming photographer. She laughed about the minor stumble.
鈥淐an we pretend I didn鈥檛 just do that,鈥 Barbaro said. 鈥淟et鈥檚 do that again.鈥
Barbaro plays Joan Baez in 鈥淎 Complete Unknown.鈥
The lookalikes have arrived
Most of the famous nominees at the Golden Globes have yet to walk the red carpet, but some semblance of them have.
Max Braunstein and Miles Mitchell showed up on the Beverly Hills carpet holding signs that read 鈥淚 won a lookalike contest and now I鈥檓 at the Golden Globes.鈥
Braunstein earned the honor for his resemblance to Glen Powell, nominated for best male actor in a movie musical or comedy for 鈥淗it Man,鈥 while Mitchell got his trip for looking like Timoth茅e Chalamet, nominated for best male actor in a drama for his own mimicking of Bob Dylan in 鈥淎 Complete Unknown.鈥
How to watch the Golden Globes red carpet
Variety and 鈥淓ntertainment Tonight鈥 are teaming up for the official preshow, which will air on the outlets鈥 websites, , and Paramount+. Their show, hosted by Variety鈥檚 Marc Malkin and E.T.鈥檚 Rachel Smith, begins at 6:30 p.m. Eastern.
And after taking a year off, E! will return to covering the fashion fiesta of the Globes red carpet with a show starting at 6 p.m.
Backstage once the show starts, The Associated Press will livestream Globe winners speaking to reporters backstage at the show, beginning at 8:15 p.m. Eastern.
Wallace and Gromit have arrived
Nick Park and Merlin Crossingham, the co-directors of the nominated walked onto the carpet proudly carrying their claymation stars.
鈥淭hese are the actual figures from the film,鈥 Crossingham said.
Feathers McGraw, the film鈥檚 villain, did not make the cut. A representative for the scheming penguin could not immediately be reached for comment.
First stop: Security checks, plus bomb squad sweeps
The line of cars to get to the Golden Globes red carpet is the great democratizer.
Everyone entering the venue has to go through an elaborate and time-consuming security check from the bomb squad. Trunks popped. Windows open. Security dog does the round in the trunk.
One member of the team told The Associated Press that security hasn鈥檛 necessarily increased from years past and that they always treat the checks with the same level of seriousness.
Attendees are known to grumble about the backlog it can cause, but this year鈥檚 event is following terror incidents in New Orleans and Las Vegas. There鈥檚 a heightened appreciation for the rigor, even if the line of big black SUVs is already long and slow three hours before the show.
Keep your eyes on Kris Bowers
Kris Bowers, one of The Associated Press鈥 is nominated for his first Golden Globe.
His work on the tear-inducing, fish-out-of-water-but-starring-a-robot animated tale, is up for original score. It may be a new honor for him, but Bowers is far from a novice: The Emmy- and Grammy-nominated composer has created moving compositions for prominent filmmakers, including and Justin Simien, and Oscar-winning films like and
He鈥檚 quickly becoming Hollywood鈥檚 favorite composer 鈥 and a name that cannot be ignored.

What鈥檚 in a name?
There are two men named Brody hoping to go home with a Globe on Sunday. And both those actors happen to share the same initial of their first names 鈥 A.

The works are very different even if the stars鈥 names are similar. Adrien Brody stars as a Hungarian architect who escaped the Holocaust and sails to the United States to find his American Dream. Adam Brody鈥檚 comedy explores the relationship between a charming rabbi and an agnostic sex-positive podcaster.
No less a star than Kim Kardashian has mixed them up. She recently offered a shoutout on Instagram gushing over 鈥淣obody Wants This鈥 but tagged Adrien Brody instead of Adam.
Sharing a last name at awards shows is most common among famous siblings, like Jake and Maggie Gyllenhaal or Vanessa and Lynn Redgrave. But the whole same-last-name-and-same-first-initial could happen if Raini Rodriguez from 鈥淧aul Blart: Mall Cop鈥 gets nominated the same year as 鈥淢odern Family鈥 star Rico Rodriguez.
It鈥檚 a pop star melee in the best song category
There are six songs up for best original song at the 2025 Golden Globes:
7. 鈥淏eautiful That Way鈥 by Andrew Wyatt, and Lykke Li from 鈥淭he Last Showgirl鈥
8. 鈥淐ompress / Repress鈥 by TrentReznor, Atticus Ross and Luca Guadagnino from 鈥淐hallengers鈥
9. 鈥淓l Mal鈥 by Cl茅ment Ducol, Camille and Jacques Audiard from 鈥淓milia P茅rez鈥
10. 鈥淔orbidden Road鈥 by Robbie Williams, Freddy Wexler and Sacha Skarbek from 鈥淏etter Man鈥
11. 鈥淜iss the Sky鈥 by Ali Tamposi, Delacey, Jordan K. Johnson, Michael Pollack and Stefan Johnson for 鈥淭he Wild Robot鈥
12. 鈥淢i Camino鈥 by Ducol and Camille, once again for 鈥淓milia P茅rez.鈥
Some things to note:
13. This is Cyrus鈥 second Golden Globe nomination. Her first was 16 years ago, for the song 鈥淚 Thought I Lost You鈥 from the animated film 鈥淏olt.鈥
14. There will be justice for Take That fans! This is Williams鈥 first Globe nomination. And after 鈥淔orbidden Road鈥 was deemed ineligible for Oscars鈥 consideration, it鈥檚 quite a big deal.
15. This is also country star-turned-pop powerhouse first Globe nomination.
No Oscars for 鈥楧une 2鈥 score
The larger-than-life 鈥淒une: Part Two鈥 score, composed by the Academy Award-winning is up for a Golden Globe but will not compete at the Oscars this year.
The Academy rules state: 鈥淚n cases such as sequels and franchises from any media, the score must not use more than 20% of pre-existing themes and music borrowed from previous scores in the franchise.鈥
Because the 鈥淒une: Part Two鈥 score pulls from the first, it qualifies as preexisting music and therefore cannot compete in that contest.
Will it win tonight? Lisan al Gaib says ... hopefully!
Who鈥檚 up for best original score?
The original score nominees are a collection of newer voices and long-established talent: by Cl茅ment Ducol and Camille, 鈥淭he Brutalist鈥 by Daniel Blumberg; 鈥淒une: Part Two鈥 by 鈥淭he Wild Robot鈥 by Kris Bowers, 鈥淐hallengers鈥 by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, and finally, 鈥淐辞苍肠濒补惫别鈥 by Volker Bertelmann. What to know:
16. Ducol has been nominated three times. If he wins, it will be his first-ever win.
17. Ditto Camille 鈥 three nominations, no wins.
18. This is both Blumberg鈥檚 and Bowers鈥 first Golden Globe nomination.
19. This is Bertelmann鈥檚 second Golden Globe nomination. His first was in 2017, for the 鈥淟ion鈥 score.
20. Zimmer has won three Golden Globes and boasts of 16 career nominations.
21. Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross have two Globes and 7 career nominations.
鈥楤etter Man鈥 won鈥檛 go down a forbidden road at the Oscars
The Golden Globes are not a perfect predictor for what will happen at the Oscars, and no one should appreciate that more than .
The English pop star who launched his career in the British boy band Take That knows a little something about writing a big pop tune. But according to Variety, the song 鈥淔orbidden Road鈥 from his was disqualified from the Oscars shortlist 鈥 after initially making the 15-song cut 鈥 because it 鈥渋ncorporates material from an existing song that was not written for the film鈥 and is therefore ineligible.
No matter! The song is still up for the original song trophy at the Globes.
TV fights upstream
If you want to watch all the nominated TV dramas this year, prepare to dig into your wallet 鈥 the category is split among a lot of streaming services.
You鈥檒l need Peacock for 鈥淭he Day of the Jackal,鈥 Netflix for both 鈥淪quid Game鈥 and 鈥淭he Diplomat,鈥 Prime Video for 鈥淢r. & Mrs. Smith鈥 补苍诲鈥 The only linear channel in the bunch is FX鈥檚 鈥淪h艒gun,鈥 but all episodes also stream on Hulu.
Streaming viewership exploded during the pandemic and hasn鈥檛 looked back. Nielsen says streaming accounted for 40.5% of TV use in October 2024, with broadcast at 24% and cable at 26.3%.
Over a decade ago in 2010, just for comparison, broadcast networks were still making a strong showing, with wins for network programs like 鈥淕lee鈥 on Fox, 鈥30 Rock鈥 on NBC and 鈥淭he Good Wife鈥 on CBS. Basic-cable shows like 鈥淢ad Men鈥 on AMC and pay-cable offerings, including 鈥淒exter鈥 on Showtime, were viable options.
No more. In 2020, all commercial broadcast networks 鈥 ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC, The CW 鈥 were shut out completely during Golden Globes nominations.
The irony is the Globes telecast has always been on a legacy network. This year it is CBS, with a streaming option for customers who have Paramount+ with Showtime.
Are the Golden Globes here to stay?
After a for the annual award show, the Golden Globes have secured their future 鈥 for now, at least.
In March, the Globes and CBS reached a five-year deal to broadcast the show and stream it live on Paramount+.
CBS stepped in to air the 81st Golden Globes last January and was rewarded with . The telecast pulled in an average of 9.4 million viewers, up about 50% from 2023, when NBC moved the Globes to a Tuesday.
For years, the Globes had resided at NBC before behind the awards, leading NBC to give them up.

Here are some of the biggest surprises from the nominations:
