Nikki Glaser, a stand-up comedian known for her sharp wit, is set to host the Golden Globes this Sunday. But she's deliberately keeping some hot topics off the table. For instance, she won't be joking about the buzzing Justin Baldoni-Blake Lively scandal. Glaser sees it as too sensitive to touch right now, despite it being a popular topic in Hollywood since Lively's recent accusations. She also wants to avoid any Donald Trump jokes, noting that people are tired of hearing about him, even if he's still a looming presence.
Glaser has been compared to Ricky Gervais, a former Globes host known for his scathing jokes. But she doesn't plan to go as hard as Gervais. Her roast appearances might be brutal, but she wants to ensure no one gets offended. She's been practicing her jokes on the road to perfect her monologue. Glaser is honest about her approach, saying she wants to give celebrities a chance to show they can laugh at themselves. The Golden Globes air live this Sunday, and Glaser is also nominated for her HBO special, Someday You’ll Die.
