Ricky Gervais Brutal Honesty Calls Out EVERYONE in Hollywood Golden Globes – No One Punched Him Out!
In a memorable moment from the 77th annual Golden Globe Awards, Ricky Gervais took the stage for the fifth and final time as host, unapologetically mocking Hollywood’s finest. With his signature biting humor, he wasted no time in calling out A-list celebrities and industry elites, sending shockwaves through the Beverly Hilton Hotel.
Gervais kicked off the evening by acknowledging that this would be his last time hosting the Globes. “You’ll be pleased to know,” he joked, “this is the last time I’m hosting these awards. I don’t care anymore.” The audience roared with laughter as Gervais quipped about his perceived lack of concern from NBC, the network broadcasting the event.
True to form, Gervais unleashed a tirade of jabs, starting with an irreverent remark about the Hollywood Foreign Press, claiming they “are all very racist” and mocking the lack of diversity in the “In Memoriam” segment. As if that wasn’t enough, he took aim at the state of modern cinema, calling out remakes, sequels, and the superhero genre, even mentioning Martin Scorsese’s critical comments on the Marvel franchise.
Ricky didn’t stop there. He roasted Hollywood’s obsession with image, fitness, and superheroes, saying, “Their job isn’t acting anymore. It’s going to the gym twice a day and taking steroids.” Gervais continued his fearless critique by slamming the hypocrisy of the entertainment industry’s “woke” stance, specifically pointing out tech giants like Apple and Amazon, who promote dignity on-screen while running sweatshops in China.
One of the most talked-about moments was his critique of celebrities using their acceptance speeches to promote political agendas. “You’re in no position to lecture the public about anything,” he boldly declared. “Most of you spent less time in school than Greta Thunberg.”
Gervais wrapped up his night with the same sharp wit, humorously referring to past controversies, like Harvey Weinstein’s behavior, and delivered one last zinger, telling the audience to “get drunk, take your drugs, and have a great time.”
His performance, blending humor with harsh truths, left the audience in awe, proving that no one—especially in Hollywood—is safe from Ricky Gervais’s brutal honesty.
