Credit: Kevin Mazur \/ Getty Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The 2024 Golden Globes are fast-approaching.<\/p>\n<p>While it would appear no event on the awards season calendar could ever eclipse the disaster that was the 2017 Oscars and <em>that<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/oscars-2017-mistake-best-picture\/\"><em>Moonlight<\/em>-versus-<em>La-La-Land<\/em> bungle<\/a>, a little part of us as journalists and spectators still pray. Traditionally speaking, the Golden Globes \u2013 with its open bar and social dinner setting \u2013 has always been the rowdier, fancy-free sister to the pompous <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/20-incredible-oscars-gowns-stood-test-time\/\">Academy Awards<\/a>; a night where the biggest names in film and television can unpin their hairsprayed-stiff top knots and dance into the evening at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, come January 7, chances are we\u2019re in for a treat. With this in mind, let\u2019s revisit some of the most scandalous Golden Globes moments from previous years, because where there\u2019s smoke (read: unlimited alcohol), there\u2019s always a little bit of (movie star-grade) fire.<\/p>\n<h3>Seth Meyers Calls Out Kevin Spacey<\/h3>\n<p>A couple of months after director Ridley Scott spectacularly replaced the disgraced Kevin Spacey with the late Christopher Plummer in <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/michelle-williams-offered-give-salary-back-all-the-money-in-the-world-kevin-spacey-ridley-scott\/\"><em>All The Money In The World<\/em><\/a>, Golden Globes host Seth Meyers had his first victim. Well, next to <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/harvey-weinstein-found-guilty-los-angeles\/\">Harvey Weinstein<\/a> of course. \u201cGood evening ladies and remaining gentlemen,\u201d Meyers began his 2018 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?time_continue=82&amp;amp;v=bMQJPsZsL00\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">opening monologue<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s 2018 and marijuana is finally allowed and sexual harassment finally isn\u2019t,\u201d he began. \u201cThey\u2019re going to do another season of <em>House of Cards<\/em>. Is Christopher Plummer available for that, too? I hope he can do a Southern accent because Kevin Spacey sure couldn\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Seth Meyers&#039; Monologue at the 2018 Golden Globes\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bMQJPsZsL00?start=82&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Actresses Wear Black In Protest<\/h3>\n<p>The celebrity soapbox (read: the acceptance speech) is always at its most vocal come Awards Season. But in the wake of the atrocious behaviour of Harvey Weinstein \u2013 a film mogul who had worked with decades of Globe attendees \u2013 female actresses wore black to the <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/times-up-ribbons-golden-globes-2019\/\">2018 awards<\/a> to protest against sexual harassment. In doing so, they raised awareness for the Time\u2019s Up initiative, a historical movement which sort to fight against sexual misconduct in Hollywood and beyond. It was supported by the <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/she-said-nyt-harvey-weinstein-movie\/\">Me Too movement<\/a> which encouraged victims to share their stories.<\/p>\n<h3>Oprah Gives The Speech Of The Century<\/h3>\n<p>That same year, addressing a sea of black dresses, <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/meghan-markle-oprah-interview\/\">Oprah Winfrey<\/a> received the Cecil B. de Millie Award and with it came one hell of an address. \u201cI want all the girls watching here to know that a new day is on the horizon,\u201d said Winfrey. \u201cAnd when that new day finally dawns, it will be because of a lot of magnificent women \u2013 many of whom are in this room tonight \u2013 and some pretty phenomenal men fighting hard to make sure that they become the leaders that take us to time where nobody ever has to say \u2018Me Too\u2019 again.\u201d Watch the moment below.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Oprah Winfrey Receives the Cecil B. deMille Award - Golden Globes 2018\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LyBims8OkSY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>The Golden Globes Are Cancelled<\/h3>\n<p>The Hollywood Foreign Press was forced to cancel the Golden Globes after members of the Screen Actors Guild (the union by which most actors are represented) threatened to boycott the event during the Writers Guild <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/actors-strike-oppenheimer-premiere\/\">strike<\/a> of 2008. The protests were so powerful that the award organisers were concerned there would be an empty red carpet and held a press conference announcing the winners instead.<\/p>\n<h3>Renee Zellweger Went To The Bathroom And Missed Her Award<\/h3>\n<p>It was 2001 and a delightfully bumbling <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/hugh-grant-ashley-graham-oscars\/\">Hugh Grant<\/a> announced his future <em>Bridget Jones<\/em> co-star, Renee Zellweger, had won the Best Actress Golden Globe for her film <em>Nurse Betty.<\/em> But Zellweger was nowhere to be seen, leaving Grant to awkwardly ask, \u201cIs she under the table? Where is she? What do we do?\u201d As he began to accept the award on her behalf, a flustered Zellweger arrived on the stage explaining she was in the bathroom because she had lipstick on her teeth.

And It\u2019s Awkward<\/h3>\n<p>After hosting the Golden Globes in 2010, the British comedian was asked to come back the following year. Watching the footage below, it would appear even Gervais knew after the first few gags that things weren\u2019t going well.
