Golden Globes Will Go Ahead Without Celebrity Presenters

This year's Golden Globes will look a little different. The ceremony will be devoid of celebrity presenters.

In an email sent out by the Golden Globes talent booker, it stated, "The Golden Globes will move forward with a small event on January 9th that will not only award the best performances in television and film for 2021 but also on recognizing the importance of supporting diverse creatives across the industry. The event this year will celebrate and honor a variety of diverse, community-based programs that empower inclusive filmmakers and journalists to pursue their storytelling passions. The HFPA has financially supported important underserved organizations for decades and will continue to invest in the future leaders of our industry." 

It also stated that "The event will have limited guests and with strict COVID protocols that include not only proof of full vaccination, but also a booster shot and a negative PCR test."

The ceremony will take place on January 9; however, it won't be televised on NBC. The network canceled the telecast due to the lack of diversity in its membership, as well as unethical business practices.
