Golden Globes 2021
The Golden Globes 2021 had perhaps the most cringeworthy awards ceremony this year with numerous technical difficulties and several awkward Zoom encounters. The fun of the Globes is watching famous people get steadily more intoxicated as the night wears on. The rowdiness of the group helps fuel the jokes and makes it fun to watch. Without this in person element, the ceremony suffered. However, a few of my favorite nominees ended up winning so at least a few good things happened! Check out the winners below!
