Only Reason to Watch Golden Globes: Ricky Gervais
There is nothing better than watching the Hollywood elite squirm.
Rick Gervais is hosting the Golden Globes again...
Actor/Comedian Ricky Gervais, 50, came under fire last year for his offensive jokes that skewered Hugh Hefner, Charlie Sheen, Scientologists, among others. The three-time Golden Globe winner said he thought he wasn't going to host the show again, but told reporters Friday that he changed his mind after he started reading articles saying he would never be invited back. "I did it to annoy them," he said of the press.
Gervais doesn't seem to be worried about going too far or offending anyone in the room Sunday night. "I think that everyone took it well. I don't know anyone that was really outraged last year," he said. "I'd rather they laugh than gasp, but I cherish the gasps along with the laughs."
The Golden Globes air Sunday at 8/7c on NBC.
