Comedian Nikki Glazer did a good job as host of the Golden Globe Awards on Sunday night, keeping the ceremony mostly political, even as she took subtle jabs at political correctness.
Later in the evening, Glazer hilariously joked that not one of the night's honorees thanked God, the “Creator of the Universe,” at that important moment.
“Okay, cast and crew lead the way with 11 mentions,” she said. “Moms stay strong with three cries: God, Creator of the Universe, zero mentions.”
After some laughs from the audience, Glaser took the joke home by pointing out that Mario Lopez has been mentioned more than God.
“Mario Lopez, host of Access Hollywood, one of them,” she said. “Not surprising in this godless town.”
God may not have been mentioned on Sunday night's show, but God's name has been spoken on several awards shows over the years. For example, at last year's Oscars, actress Da'Vine Joy Randolph proclaimed, “God is good” as she accepted the Best Supporting Actress award for her performance in a movie. Holdovers.
“God is so good,” she said through tears. “God is so good. I never thought I should do this as a career.”

My heart is just beating,” Bassett said. “The late Toni Morrison said that your life is already a miracle of chance, just waiting for you to decide its destiny. But for that destiny to come true, it takes courage to believe. I think it's necessary. As you just heard, it takes patience. And it takes a real sense of yourself. The past has been circuitous, there have been many unexpected detours, and it hasn't been easy, but by the grace of God. , I'm standing here. I'm standing here grateful.”
Bassett added that her mother always said, “Good things happen to those who pray.”
After thanking her husband Courtney B. Vance, co-stars and staff, Bassett dedicated the award to the late Chadwick Boseman, the original Black Panther, who passed away from colon cancer in 2020.
