![]() ![]() "Star" also missed out on the top acting award (Rami Malek of "Bohemian Rhapsody" bested Bradley Cooper) and best picture (drama), which also went to "Rhapsody." These upsets threw awards pundits into panic mode but ensured that Queen was played during the last minutes of a show that already went 20 minutes over. The biggest upset of the night was Glenn Close's win as best drama actress for "The Wife," edging out Lady Gaga in "A Star is Born." But she recovered from an extreme shock to give a strong speech about women taking agency in their own lives, and the crowd was on its feet (even Gaga). When "Green Book" took home the award for best picture, musical or comedy, it was already a bad choice (for me, anyway), but director/co-writer Peter Farrelly's acceptance speech was wildly tone-deaf, glossing over the complexities of systemic racism, and offering a very narrow point of view. And it didn't give proper emphasis to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association's understanding (unlike the TV Academy's) that "The Americans" deserves all the awards.

They accepted the award for best animated film with shock and joy, sharing the inclusive message of the movie. The nominations for the Golden Globes 2019 were decided earlier last month. The show will be live tele casted at 7:30 am IST on Monday and can be watched on Colors Infinity, Comedy Central India, and Vh1 India. It's a sweet and refreshing way to kick off the new year, especially after many less-than-stellar Globes hosted by Ricky Gervais. But this year, it will be hosted by Andy Samberg and Sandra Oh. ![]() Niceness was the early theme of the night, as the hosts "slammed" celebs in the Beverly Hilton ballroom with jabs about how "hot" and "talented" they are.
