The actors are back on the red carpet, and they are back in a renewed version (after the scandals) the Golden Globes. The 81st edition, at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles, was a (relatively) quick ceremony, without incredible moments to remember (no one liked the monologue and jokes of the comedian Joy Koy, and one felt the absence of the great presenters of the past, who fled after the scandals of recent years), but with a very high number of celebs present in the room and on the red carpet. A decidedly record-breaking edition from this point of view which, as far as prizes are concerned, saw a return to the field Barbenheimer: the challenge of Barbie against Oppenheimerwon in this case by the latter.
But let's go in order. Here's what we'll remember (or won't remember) about the 2024 Golden Globes.
