A night to remember! The 80th annual Golden Globes delivered Hollywood glamour — and A-list appearances — after the 2022 ceremony was not televised.
Jerrod Carmichael hosted the star-studded awards show on Tuesday, January 10, serving up laughs with his monologue at The Beverly Hilton in California.

(In 2021, the Los Angeles Times reported that there were no Black members in the HFPA’s entire voting body.)
“I’ll tell you why I’m here. I’m here ’cause I’m Black,” Carmichael teased at the start of the ceremony before giving the audience a rundown of the HFPA’s controversy.
The Rothaniel performer earned a handful of uncomfortable laughs during his address — but the real jaw-dropper came later in the show. When the Golden Globes returned from a commercial break, Carmichael stood on stage holding three trophies, teasing that they were the awards Tom Cruise “returned” amid the HFPA’s 2021 scandal.
“I have a pitch. I think, maybe, we take these three [trophies] and exchange them for the safe return of Shelly Miscavige,” the North Carolina native said, referring to the wife of Scientology leader David Miscavige. (Leah Remini has claimed several times over the years that Shelly is missing.)
According to a source inside the event, Carmichael’s joke earned a series of shocked gasps from the stars in the crowd.
