Koy is facing backlash for giving a divisive performance as host of the 81st Golden Globes, where he polarized viewers for, among other things, delivering what audiences believed to be a sexist joke in which he compared Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer” and Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie.” “‘Oppenheimer’ is based on the 721-page Pulitzer Prize-winning book about the Manhattan Project — and ‘Barbie’ is about a plastic doll with big boobies,” he said as the Globe’s audience responded with a muted laugh.

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.
