The Golden Globes 2018, perhaps more any other year, had the world watching and waiting with bated breath. There were shocking moments (you can see the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:full list of winners here), burns that needed urgent medical attention, and an industry gripped in the midst of its biggest scandal yet. Pleᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚnty food for thought, then, and the internet didn’t disappoint꧅.
#MeToo
It would be churlish of me not to start with the biggest conversation going into the Golden Globes: the scandals. Wo💯men of Hollywood opted to wear black for the event, with some men wearing #TimesUp pins to showcase their disapproval at toxic masculinity in Hollywood and beyond.
Globally, violence against women and girls affects 1 in 3 women in their lifetime.🎶 #TimesUp pic.twitter.com/55M🍰nFKwKo3
Very encouraged by so many magnificent women unifying and standing together in solidarity saying enough is enough tonight. I stand by those wome💖n and all my sisters 🔜around the world. United we cannot be divided. #TIMESUP

Natalie Portman deserves all the awards
Despite the social𝄹 media campaigns and all the rest of it, hypocrisy still reigned supreme. Case in point: Greta Gerwig directed Lady Bird, which was nominated for Best Picture, Best Screenplay, as well as directing Saoirse Ronan to the Best Actress award. She wasn’t nominated for Best Director, and Natalie Portman was only too keen to unleash a stinging barb at the presence of a male-dominated list.
Let this sink in:Greta Gerwig d🐠irected her 🍰lead actor to a Golden Globe winGreta Gerwig directed the film that won best pictureGreta Gerwig was not dominated for best director - all men were. #TIMESUP #GoldenGlobes #LadyBird
Natalie Portman: 'And here are the all male nominees' 🔥🔥🔥#GoldenGlobes pic.twitter.com/f2MyPkF8x6
And then my girl #NataliePor🌼tman names the all “male” nominees for best director! Preach!
I’m still think⛦ing about Natalie Portman’s unbelievable burn, and how the cameras i♏mmediately cut to several men trying to look away from the camera.
Game of Moans
Hey, Game of Thrones and Stranger Things both lost🍷 out to Handmaid&rsไquo;s Tale for best TV show. Not everyone was best pleased.
@GameOfThrones was robbed at the golden globes. Best s🤡how o🐷n television, possibly ever
The Handmaid Tale???? No one can tell me this show is better than Game Of♕ Thrones or Stranger Things. #GoldenGlobes
This is definitely going t🎃o be my lockscreen #GoldenGlobes pic.twitter.com/23xb9lxppC
Room for one more?
Oh, 🍒hai! Tommy Wiseau is the closest we’ll get to a living meme. He also got perilously close to having a l🐲ive microphone in front of millions of viewers. The Disaster Artist inspiration was, mercifully, stopped despite being invited on stage by James Franco.
Tommy Wiseau🐭 trying to steal the microphone during James Franco’s acceptance speﷺech is my favorite moment of 2018 so far. #GoldenGlobes pic.twitter.com/t5nmfYQKXi
James Franco stopping Tommy Wiseau from talking into a live mic during the #GoldenGlobes has robbed us of the best moment iꦏn entertainment that 2018 could have possibly offered.
Willem Dafoe's face

Oprah has the final say
The one thing e💜veryone will take away from this year’s Golden Globes, however, is Oprah’s stunning speech. Words can’t quite sum up just how great and inspiring it was, so here it is in full. Enjoy.
