The 82nd Annual Golden Globe Awards are just 2 weeks away, it is set to be another star-studded event in Hollywood. This year’s host is Nikki Glaser, and she is already making history as being the first woman to host the ceremony solo! This does not scare Glaser, however. If anything, it is the opposite.
The queen of roasting spoke with the official Golden Globes website about taking on the reigns of hosting the, “party of the year:”
“Hosting the Golden Globes is scary! It’s a well-lit room, which is not conducive to comedy; there are a lot of people I admire, which also is not conducive to comedy. It’s live, so you can’t do retakes. The level of difficulty is through the roof. And that’s thrilling to me.”
As a fan herself, she was surprised at the fact that she was even asked to host the show:
“This was not on my radar at all; I didn’t even know this was being talked about. I love that they called me with a question: ‘Would you want to host the Golden Globes?’ Who would say no to this? It was a moment in my career I’ll never forget. And everyone has been so positive and super-supportive. This isn’t what I thought my career would look like, playing in a room full of A-list stars. Sometimes I will have a delusional moment like ‘Am I an A-lister?’ And the answer is no, I’m a comedian, I need to do what I was sent here to do.”
