"The stand-up comedian actually did a decent job at the 2025 Awards show honoring the best performances in TV and film, even if working the crowd better than Jo Koy's disastrous 2024 outing wasn't a high bar to cross. Glaser roasted Timothee Chalamet's Bob Dylan impression (So accurate that even Dylan himself that it was horrible), and even the industry themselves (I'm in a room full of producers at the Hollywood Hotel and, this time, all my clothes are on.)"
"So, in a rare move that hasn't occurred since the days of Ricky Gervais and Tina Fey/Amy Poehler hosting damn near every Awards shows on TV, the Globes asked Glaser to return and host the show again. Like the rare sequel that's even better the original, Glaser killed it. I cannot believe the amount of star power we have in this room tonight, it's insane, Glaser said at the top of the show."
Nikki Glaser returned as host for the 2025 Golden Globes and delivered a successful, sharper performance compared with prior awards outings. The hosting repeat followed notable past repeat hosts and leaned into roast-style jokes about celebrities and the industry. The broadcast faced competition from a major NFL game and the HBO premiere of Industry season 4. Major stars attended, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Timothée Chalamet, George Clooney, Ariana Grande, and Emma Stone. Glaser used self-aware humor about A-lister status and redacted lists, and she managed to win over skeptics in the room.
