Golden Globes To Be Hosted By Star Comedian Jo Koy: Here’s All You Need To Know

Golden Globes To Be Hosted By Star Comedian Jo Koy

The 7th of January will see the Golden Globe Awards, Jo Koy’s first major award show hosting engagement. Producers chose comedian and actor Jo Koy to host the Golden Globes because of his “infectious energy and pertinent humor.” Easter Sunday, which Koy released last year, became the first major studio film featuring an all-Filipino cast. In addition to his most recent Netflix special, Live From The Los Angeles Forum, he has five stand-up specials available on Comedy Central and Netflix.

Following a scandal and several difficult years, which includes one without a broadcast, the Globes are currently recuperating. The event, which is scheduled for January 7, will be Koy’s first significant award show hosting engagement.

According to a statement released on Thursday by Golden Globes president Helen Hoehne, “We are thrilled about having Jo host the 81st Annual Golden Globe Awards and bring his infectious energy and relatable humor to kick off Hollywood’s award season.” “Jo is bringing his A-game.”

“Throughout my career, I have performed on many stages all over the world, but this one is going to be especially memorable. Koy released a statement saying,” I’m very thrilled to be hosting the Golden Globes this year.

The 81st Golden Globes, which will now air on CBS, will be the first significant awards show of the season. The Oscars are the most-watched awards show, but the Globes continue to be one of the most prominent. It was still drawing about 19 million viewers before the pandemic. The show was billed as an extravagant, A-list celebration with hosts who frequently adopted a more lighthearted tone than their Academy counterparts.
