Jimmy takes over from Ricky
Jimmy Fallon is set to host the 74th Golden Globes in Hollywood tonight. Ricky Gervais has presented the awards for four years in a row. Shame as we never tired of watching Hollywood insulted by him all evening. We are sure the celebs will feel more at ease attending the show tonight. Watch Ricky’s opening speech last year.
So far, Leonardo DiCaprio, Anna Kendrick, Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Jessica Chastain, Amy Schumer, Drew Barrymore, Zoe Saldana, Steve Carell, Diego Luna, and Sienna Miller have all been confirmed to be presenting awards. Expect more to be announced shortly.
