The 8 Most Memorable Moments from this Year’s Golden Globes
We come for the dresses, but we stay for the winners, laughs and awkward moments.
Tonight, the 78th annual Golden Globes took place virtually on NBC. Here are eight of the most memorable moments from the awards show.
1. Amy Poehler & Tina Fey's coast-to-coast monologue
Amy Poehler and Tina Fey opened the awards show with a spot-on monologue, which included everything from Oprah Winfrey jokes to Zoom references. Unlike previous years, the pair co-hosted the show from opposite sides of the country, and they didn’t hold back on poking fun at the unique broadcast.
