Handler took the stage to host the Critics Choice Award and addressed her ex's blunders in her opening monologue.

Chelsea Handler defended mocking her ex-boyfriend Jo Koy ’s controversial hosting gig at the 81st Golden Globes last year. The Filipino-American comedian faced significant backlash after his opening monologue was widely criticized as “awkward,” “distasteful,” and “unfunny.”

Nikki Glaser doesn’t plan to blow her golden opportunity. On Sunday, Glaser will host the 82nd Golden Globes. She plans for the gig to be more like her breakout Tom Brady roast performance and less like Jo Koy’s 2024 turn as Golden Globes host.

Golden Globes viewers felt comedian Jo Koy bombed his duties as host, this year's host, Nikki Glaser, isn't afraid to take over the reins. In a new interview, the blonde beauty was asked how last year's mistakes affected her monologue and jokes for this year's show.

Comedian Nikki Glaser is preparing to host the 2025 Golden Globes, learning from the stint of her predecessor, Filipino-American stand-up comic Jo Koy.
