We examine the unforgettable moments of the Golden Globe Awards from past to present.

Traditionally, we can say that the <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/culture/the-winners-of-the-2024-golden-globes" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Golden Globe Awards</a> are a less glamorous but noisier companion to the ever-glamorous Academy Awards, with their open buffet and socialising dinner atmosphere. So much so that this sparkling night not only brings together hundreds of productions from the world of cinema with their awards, but also this year, with the after-party hosted by Billboard, the most assertive names of the industry can unbutton their jackets a little and stay at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/chanel-show-cruise-2023-2024-los-angeles-photo-look" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Los Angeles</a> until the evening. It offers a party atmosphere where they can dance. The Golden Globe Awards, where the popular productions of the season, Barbie, Oppenheimer, Poor Things, Killers of the Flower Moon and May December are at the forefront. The awards ceremonies have witnessed many surprising events so far, like Moonlight and La La Land's awards being mixed up at the 2017 Oscars, or Will Smith slapping host Chris Rock in 2022&hellip;
So, while the excitement of the 2024 Golden Globes surrounds us all, how about taking a look at the 10 most unforgettable Golden Globe moments of all time?
Seth Meyers Criticised Kevin Spacey
A few months after director Ridley Scott cast the late Christopher Plummer in his brilliant performance as Kevin Spacey's replacement in "All The Money In The World," Golden Globe host Seth Meyers chose Kevin Spacey as his first victim. &ldquo;Good evening, ladies and gentlemen,&rdquo; Meyers began during her Golden Globe Awards 2018 opening speech (all was going normally), &ldquo;despite the events of 2018, of course, the show continues where it left off. Meanwhile, it was rumored that another season of House of Cards would be shot. So is Christopher Plummer a good fit for her too? "I hope he can pull off his Southern accent because Kevin Spacey definitely can't do that." Meyers did not leave Harvey Weinstein without his sarcastic jokes: "Harvey Weinstein is not here tonight because I heard rumors that he is a little crazy and difficult to work with. But don't worry, he will of course be back in 20 years when he is booed like crazy."
Actors Wear Black to Protest Sexual Harassment
"Me Too", one of the most comprehensive social activism movements of all time due to the echo it aroused, took down social media as of October 2017 and made its voice heard in Hollywood with the sexual harassment allegations against producer Harvey Weinstein. Seth Meyers' criticism of Harvey Weinstein at the ceremony was actually a part of this. Female actors attending the 2018 Golden Globe Awards Ceremony chose to wear black to protest sexual harassment. By doing so, they also raised awareness for the Time's Up initiative, a historic movement fighting against sexual misconduct in Hollywood and beyond.
Oprah Winfrey Delivered the Speech of the Century
It is true that the 2018 Golden Globe Awards are not just a classic award ceremony talked about with the red carpet elegance of famous names, but it is like a social responsibility project that will raise awareness among the audience who follow the ceremony live from all over the world. Oprah Winfrey's unforgettable Golden Globe speech is the biggest reason for this. Winfrey, that year, received the Cecil B. de Millie Award and gave the following speech: "I want all the girls watching this to know that a new day is on the horizon. If that new day is finally here, it will be because of the amazing women, many of whom are in this room tonight, and who will come to us again." &ldquo;It will be thanks to some extraordinary men who are fighting so hard to give us a world where no one has to say 'Me Too.'&rdquo;
Golden Globe Awards Ceremony Canceled
Of course, industry protests are not limited to the 2023 Hollywood screenwriters' strike, which lasted 118 days and affected the broadcast dates of many productions. The ceremony had to be cancelled that year after members of the Screen Actors Guild (the union that represents most actors) threatened to boycott the Golden Globes during the 2008 Writers Guild strike. The protests were so strong that awards organisers worried the red carpet would be empty and instead held a press conference announcing the winners.
Renee Zellweger Missed Her Award
Now we take a journey in time and go to the first years of the millennium. Year 2001&hellip; Hugh Grant announces that his Bridget Jones co-star Renee Zellweger won the Best Actress Golden Globe for the movie &ldquo;Nurse Betty&rdquo; , but Zellweger is nowhere to be seen. Grant asked awkwardly , "Under the table? Where is she? What are we going to do?" He asks questions like, and at one point, as he was about to accept the award on Zellweger's behalf, a flustered Zellweger comes on stage and explains that she was in the toilet because she had lipstick marks on her teeth. So these events happen not only in American sitcoms but also at the biggest award ceremonies of all time...
Tina Fey and Amy Poehler vs. Leonardo DiCaprio
Tina Fey said, "Let's all give a warm welcome to Leonardo DiCaprio" while welcoming Leonardo DiCaprio, who is known for his 25-year age rule in choosing a lover (he brought it down to 28 with Gigi Hadid) at the ceremony in 2014! Tina Fey-Amy Poehler duo also teased George Clooney with the following words: &ldquo; Gravity was nominated for Best Picture. The story of how George Clooney would rather fly into space and die than spend another minute with a woman his own age..."
Ricky Gervais' Opening Speech Didn't Make You Laugh This Time
After hosting the Golden Globes in 2010, British comedian Ricky Gervais was asked to return to the ceremony the following year. After a few jokes and a complete silence at the ceremony, even Gervais realised that things were not going well... Things got worse when he started talking about Johnny Depp, Charlie Sheen and Angelina Jolie.
Timoth&eacute;e Chalamet and Kylie Jenner attended an awards ceremony together for the first time
We wouldn't be wrong if we described the Chalamet-Jenner duo as one of the most secretive couples in Hollywood. Rumors about the duo, who did not appear publicly until September, were actually on the agenda since last April. If you took a quick look at the images of the 81st Golden Globes award ceremony, you could see images of the couple not walking together on the red carpet, but sitting next to each other, Jenner playing with Chalamet's Cartier necklace, and the couple having a very enjoyable time together. Of course, the agenda that the favorite couple of the season created at the Golden Globes night was not limited to this... Selena Gomez talked to Taylor Swift during the ceremony and according to lip readers , "I wanted to take a photo with Timoth&eacute;e, but Kylie said 'no' to it." His words also caught our attention.
