Comedian Nikki Glaser's opening monologue at the 2024 Golden Globes was filled with sharp wit and pointed jabs at celebrities like Diddy, the cast of 'Wicked,' and Nicole Kidman.
While kicking off Sunday’s ceremony at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles, California, comedian Nikki Glaser threw cold water on a multitude of celebrities including Diddy and the cast of “Wicked.” While praising Zendaya just minutes into her spicy monologue, Glaser told the audience that the actor’s 2023 film “Challengers” was “more sexually charged than Diddy’s credit card.”“I mean, seriously. Oh, no, I know. I’m sorry, I’m upset too.
The after party is not going to be as good this year,” she quipped. Glaser then joked that a “Stanley Tucci freak-off just doesn’t have the same ring to it,” referencing Diddy’s brewing accusations of sex trafficking involving drug-fueled orgies known as“No baby oil this year, just lots of olive oil,” she added, delivering another blow to the hip-hop mogul. Back in September,were recovered by authorities at Diddy’s residence after his Los Angeles and Miami properties were raided, according to a federal indictment.Glaser went on to put one of this year’s biggest blockbuster hits in the hot seat — “Wicked.” While hyping up the musical, she told the crowd that she “didn’t know much about ‘Wicked’ going into this year because I had friends in high school” before adding, “But I loved it.” “I loved it so much. Everyone loved ‘Wicked.’ I loved ‘Wicked.’ My boyfriend loved ‘Wicked.’ My boyfriend’s boyfriend really loved ‘Wicked,’” she continued as the crowd laughed.After spotting nominee Nicole Kidman sitting next to her husband, Keith Urban, she mockingly thanked the country star for “playing guitar around the house so much that wants to leave and make 18 movies a year.” She later declared that Benny Blanco was in attendance with fiancée Selena Gomez “because of the genie that granted him that wish,” before adding, “Lucky guy.”I’ve been following Nikki Glaser’s standup for some time, she’s brilliant at it, and glad that she finally got her flower
