Comedy buddies Tina Fey and Amy Poehler opened their much-anticipated Golden Globes hosting gig with a stand-up style roast of some of Hollywoods biggest names as stars dished that they were unusually nervous for the normally laid back boozy awards show.
Taking jabs at stars like Tom Hanks, Jonah Hill and Matt Damon, the Fey and Poehler gathered speed and brought laughter to the opening of the 71st Annual Golden Globe Awards.
Poehler said that in such a starry crowd, Damon was "basically a garbage person." The Tracy Letts play adaptation "August: Osage County," starring Meryl Streep, Fey said, proved "that there are great parts in Hollywood for Meryl Streeps over 60."
Gravity is nominated for best film. Its a story about how George Clooney would rather float away into space and die than spend one more minute with a woman his own age, Fey quipped as the audience of celebs roared.
The first award of the evening, Best Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture, went to a shaky Jennifer Lawrence for American Hustle.
I actually did watch all of the movies this yearnot all of them, but you know what I mean, she said nervously as the audience laughed. Thank you to my family and my team, and Im sorry Im shaking so much.
The award for Best Supporting Actress in a Series, Mini-Series or TV Movie was handed out to Jaqueline Bisset for Dancing on the Edge, who took a moment to gather herself before she could speak to accept to award.
Later during the presentation, a hiccup with the teleprompter befuddled some of the presenters.
Im not going to lie to you, right now, they put up the wrong stuff on the teleprompter, Hill said as he took the stage. Lets just be real about it. That was not for us.
Hill and co-star Margot Robbie awkwardly read their Wolf of Wall Street intro from a piece of paper that was brought to them on stage.
Jon Voight took home the Golden Globe for Supporting Actor in a TV Series, Mini-Series or TV Movie for his role in Ray Donovan.
Im as nervous as everybody else, Voight said. What happened?
Amy Adams cried as she took the stage in a red gown.
"Today is my 15th anniversary of moving to L.A," she revealed. "Thinking 'I don't know, maybe I'll get a commercial or something." She took home the award for Best Actress in a Comedy/Musical Motion Picture.
Meanwhile, Bryan Cranston took home the award Best Actor in a Drama TV Series for his role as Walter White in the hugely popular series Breaking Bad.
Best Drama TV Series went Cranstons show as well, and creator Vince Gilligan accepted the award for the AMC show, which wrapped in 2013. Bad beat out Downton Abbey and Master of Sex.
