Golden Globes live: Nikki Glaser turns on show’s network CBS in shock monologue as Timothee Chalamet and Amy Poehler lead winners

Nikki Glaser hit out at the Justice Department, claiming they deserve an award for ‘best editing’ in the wake of the release of the heavily-redacted Epstein files.

She then took aim at CBS News after the network underwent a leadership change.

‘And the award for the most editing goes to CBS News,’ Glaser said. ‘Yes, CBS News, America’s newest place to see BS news.’

She also made a ‘cheap’ joke about Leonardo DiCaprio’s tendency to date younger women.

‘What a career you have had,’ she said to DiCaprio. ‘Countless iconic performances. You’ve worked with every great director, you’ve won three Golden Globes, and an Oscar.

‘The most impressive thing is that you were able to accomplish that all before your girlfriend turned 30. It is just insane.’

Several celebrities have left the Golden Globes early, as viewers complain this year’s show has been a snooze fest.

Selena Gomez, Benny Blanco, Dax Shepard, Kristen Bell and Keegan-Michael Key have all appeared to leave the ceremony, with several awards still to be handed out.

On social media, users have complained that this year’s ceremony has been boring and uninteresting to watch.

‘I remember when I used to watch the #GoldenGlobes and other award shows. This year, I don’t think I’ve seen a single nominated film,’ one person wrote on X.

‘The clips I’ve seen make me feel even better about that decision. The Golden Globes look cringe and, quite simply, not funny.’

Another wrote, ‘This has been one of the most boring Golden Globes I’ve ever seen, and I have watched them for years.

‘Haven’t heard of any of these one-named films. Haven’t heard of any of these under-30 actors, and they all are as obnoxious as they could possibly be. What a disappointment.’
