Golden Globes 2024 live: Awards show sees huge ratings boost with controversial host
Annual ceremony returned in its usual Sunday slot, hosted at the Beverly Hilton Hotel
The Golden Globes returned with a blowout, star-studded ceremony on Sunday (7 January) night.
The annual, Beverly Hills-based awards show has been obscured in recent years after a 2021 Los Angeles Times investigation revealed that the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (the awards’ voting body) did not have a single Black member.
However, this year, the Globes were back in their usual Sunday slot on CBS and hoping to regain viewers. Broadcast live from the Beverly Hilton Hotel, A-listers including Taylor Swift, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence and Kylie Jenner brought some much-needed stardust to the beleaguered show.
Oppenheimer, Barbie, Poor Things and Anatomy of a Fall were among the films to earn multiple awards. Christopher Nolan won his first Globe following six nominations while Barbie was surprisingly pipped to Best Picture in the Musical/Comedy category Poor Things.
Meanwhile, Beef, The Bear and Succession were the big winners in the TV categories.

Who was the best dressed at the Golden Globes in 2023?
Yes, we care about who gets to go home with a statuette at the end of the ceremony – but one of the most exciting aspects of watching an awards ceremony is seeing how the celebrities dress for the red carpet.
