The 2023 GoldenGlobes ceremony was never going to be a dull affair.
He continued, “I was really proud of that decision, until I got an email from a publicist saying that Helen [Hoehne], the president of the HFPA, wanted to have a one-on-one sit down with me. I said, ‘No thanks, I know when I hear a trap.’ Then they came back like, ‘Well, they’re not really asking, they’re insisting that you take the meeting.’ And I’m like, ‘Or what?! They’re gonna fire me?!’ They haven’t had a Black host for 79 years and they’re gonna fire the first one? I’m unfireable.
And it came back again: ‘Helen really just wants to educate you on the changes that the organisation has made in regards to diversity.’ And I’ll be totally honest with everyone here tonight. I don’t really need to hear it. I took this job assuming they hadn’t changed at all. I heard they got six new Black members, congrats for them, whatever. I’m here, truly, because I look out into this room and I see a lot of talented people.
