Jo Koy opens show with hilarious, heartfelt monologue
Jo Koy opened the show with a hilarious monologue, kicking things off on a heartfelt note by calling his role as 2024 Golden Globes host a "dream come true."
"When I was a kid growing up I used to watch this show. I would stay up late with my family just trying to guess who would win, and every time my mom would say, 'It's Meryl Streep, stupid. Who else is going to win? She wins every time.' And she was right."
"You do," he said, looking over at Streep. "You do win all the time."
Koy also quipped about having not seen any other show this past year besides "Beef," joking, "It's mandatory, I'm Asian!"
The comedian joked that his 2024 resolution is to "finish 'Oppenheimer'" and, referring to his takeaway from the "Barbie" movie, said "it was weird being attracted to a plastic doll."
