Koy, who is half-white and half-Filipino, wasted no time taking down Tinseltown from pretty much the beginning of his monologue.

On the Golden Globes, we have fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift… there’s just more to go to here.”The joke seemingly didn’t go down well with Swift, as she awkwardly pursed her lips and took a sip of her drink. Her icy reaction later went viral on social media, with Koy coming under heavy criticism.“I didn’t understand the Taylor tiff,” the comedian told the Los Angeles Times on Thursday (January 11). “Mind you, that [joke] was just getting rewritten 50 million times, never ran it through, all the way up until we had to walk out.
