Who hosted the Golden Globes in 2020?
Comedian Ricky Gervais hosted the Golden Globes for the fifth time in 2020.
He also hosted in 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2016.
“I did it the first time because I couldn’t believe I was asked,” he told The Hollywood Reporter.
“They had never had a presenter.
“I thought, ‘Oh, this is great.’ I didn’t know what it was like. I had no expectations.
“I’d won a couple of Golden Globes, so I had been and it was a nice party. I realize it’s much better to be at than perform at because you’ve got no pressure.

“Everyone’s drinking, everyone’s getting drunk, they don’t want to hear what you want [to say], they want to know if they’ve won an award.
“And as the night goes on, there are more losers. They’re like, ‘Well, we didn’t even win.’ So it’s a bad gig for a comedian. If that was a comedy club, you’d go, ‘I’m not playing that club.'”
Gervais added that he kept returning “because it’s fun, it’s fun!”
