On Sunday, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler<\/a> hosted the 78th annual Golden Globe award ceremony<\/a> for the fourth time from the Rainbow Room at 30 Rock in New York City and the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles, respectively. <\/span>And, well, there is something to be said about seeing people in their chosen environments<\/a>, right? Not unlike the way we are curious about the surroundings behind our colleagues and therapists and friends on Zoom<\/a>, our major takeaway from the Zoom-era 2021 Golden Globes was that it really is all about the backgrounds.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe technology is so great, you are never going to be able to tell the difference, it\u2019s going to be smooth sailing,\u201d Poehler said, pretending to stroke her friend’s hair through the screen. While we could<\/em> tell the difference (there was an audible pause before Daniel Kaluuya<\/a> accepted his award Best Supporting Actor for <\/span>Judas and the Black Messiah<\/span><\/i><\/a>), it felt more personal to see celebrities all dressed up and appearing on national television from wherever they deemed fit. Let\u2019s recap some of the more memorable backdrops (or lack thereof), shall we?<\/span><\/p>\n
