The next edition of the Golden Globe Awards ceremony honoring excellence in TV and film is slated to take place in Los Angeles Jan. 11.

While Nikki Glaser received high praise from critics, celebrities and fellow comedians like Jon Stewart, who tweeted “Nikki Glaser is very good at this,” for her opening monologue at the 2025 Golden Globes, Glaser recalls some stars were a bit nervous to be put on the spot by her.

Glaser said that after the Golden Globes, several people confirmed they were “really, really scared” of what she was going to say. If she knew how “terrified” people were from her previous performance, Glaser explained she would have tried to do “something to diffuse” that terror “a little bit.”
