The 82nd Golden Globe Awards kicked off in dazzling fashion, with comedian Nikki Glaser stealing the spotlight as the night’s host. Glaser, known for her sharp wit and fearless humor, delivered a memorable opening monologue that perfectly balanced charm and cheeky commentary.

Taking the stage at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, California, Glaser wasted no time addressing the cultural zeitgeist, humorously dubbing the event "Ozempic's biggest night." Her quip set the tone for a night filled with clever jabs and lighthearted banter.

One of her standout moments came when she applauded Zendaya for her role in Challengers, a film brimming with romantic drama. Glaser joked that the movie was “more sexually charged than Diddy’s credit card,” a playful nod to Sean “Diddy” Combs’ recent legal troubles.

Glaser’s humor didn’t stop there. She slyly mentioned Ben Affleck while listing nominees, quipping that titles like Wicked, Queer, and Nightbitch were “not just words Ben Affleck yells when he orgasms.” The punchline had the audience roaring with laughter, proving her knack for pushing boundaries while keeping the room entertained.

Beyond the jokes, Glaser reflected on her journey to this career milestone. In a pre-show interview, she shared her gratitude and recounted her early days in comedy, from competing on Last Comic Standing in college to making a name for herself on MTV and Comedy Central.

With her signature style and unfiltered humor, Nikki Glaser brought a fresh energy to the Golden Globes. Her hosting debut showcased not just her comedic brilliance but also her undeniable presence as a seasoned performer.
