A celebrity feud, unexpected snubs and every chaotic moment from the 2025 Golden Globes in one place.

It's here! The 82nd Golden Globes are upon us, which is the first fancy show to kick off awards season.

And we can all agree this one is the best: bringing together both TV and movie stars which means that basically every notable celeb in Hollywood was squeezed inside the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills.

From Aussie icons like Nicole Kidman and Cate Blanchett to A-listers like Kate Winslet, Zendaya, Daniel Craig and Ariana Grande, the gang was all here! Like, I'm actually overwhelmed by how many famous faces sashayed their way down the red carpet.

This year's hostest with the mostest was comedian Nikki Glaser, who was the first woman ever to host the awards solo, which is both exciting and wildly shameful!

So without further ado, let's jump into absolutely everything that happened!

The women took the Golden Globes dress code quite literally.

Speaking of the red carpet, these women were so hyped to be at the Golden Globes, that they dressed as statues.

Jeremy Strong did… this???

Nominated for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role for The Apprentice, Jeremy Strong channelled Kendall Roy in this, errrr…. vision in velvet turquoise, including a matching bucket hat.

No idea what's happening but love this for him.

But as usual, the fashion was dominated by Zendaya.

No words!!! The tectonic plates have shifted! The heavens have opened up! People will talk about this look for decades to come.

Nikki Glaser's opening monologue was a bit spicy!

Nikki Glaser gave a masterful opening monologue, pulling zero punches as she mercilessly roasted almost every celeb in the room.

"Ariana, hold my finger," she began, referencing Wicked's infamous press tour. "Tonight we celebrate the best of film and hold a space for television."

Another joke to get a huge laugh was Glaser saying "Wicked, Queer, Night Bitch, these are not just words Ben Affleck yells after he orgasms."

She then took aim at Zendaya who was less than enthused.

"Zendaya is here. You were incredible in Challengers, I woke up for all of your scenes," Glaser said.

She then roasted Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco's recent engagement. "Selena is here tonight with her new fiance, Benny Blanco. And he is here because of the Genie that granted him that wish. Lucky guy."

The couple weren't thrilled with the joke!

Another joke that prompted a few groans in the audience was about disgraced rapper, Sean 'Diddy' Combs.

"I am upset that the after-party won't be as good. We have to move on. Stanley Tucci's freak-off does not have the same ring. No baby oil, just a lot of olive oil."

Kylie Jenner was spotted sitting next to Timothée Chalamet.

Glaser turned her aim at Golden Globe nominee Timothée Chalamet. "You have the most gorgeous eyelashes on your upper lip, such a good look," she joked.

"You were so good as Bob Dylan, wasn't he incredible? In fact, I read your singing voice was so accurate that even Bob Dylan himself admitted it was absolutely horrible. You nailed it."

Pop culture fans couldn't help but notice that Kylie Jenner was sitting beside him, laughing along at her boyfriend being mercilessly mocked.

Kieran Culkin did a shot of tequila before he won.

Kieran Culkin won the award for Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy for his tender role in A Real Pain. As usual, his speech was a little unhinged.

"This is incredible. I am feeling a little... my wife and I did this shot of tequila with Mario Lopez. Definitely feeling that, the speech is gone. Terrific Kieran, you are doing fine," he said.

"My gorgeous wife, of course, thank you for putting up with what you call my mania. I'm working on it. It's not fine, it is still a lot of work. We will see where that goes."

One thing about Kieran Culkin is he is never boring!

Shōgun (and Tadanobu Asano) stole all our hearts.

Tadanobu Asano took the award for Shōgun for Best Performance by a Male Actor in a Supporting Role on Television. His excitement when accepting his award was too wholesome.

"You don't know me! I'm an actor from Japan," he began. "I have to come back to Tokyo tonight, tomorrow morning I am shooting again. But this is very big present for me! Thank you so much! Thank you so much, thank you everybody! I'm very happy!"

The series swept the awards with Shōgun picking the award for TV Drama, along with stars Anna Sawai and Hiroyuki Sanada both winning their acting categories.

Jennifer Coolidge was as iconic as ever.

When presenting an award (won by Jeremy Allen White who awkwardly did not show up), Jennifer Coolidge went on a random tangent.

"Tonight, I have the incredible honour of recognising the men who have the daunting task of carrying the weight of an entire series on their shoulders. And believe me, it's not easy," she began, before pivoting her tone.

"I do know how hard it is for you guys to have to pretend to be nice to everybody. But then again, you guys do get very special treatment on the set. I was on a job once and the lead actor, the lead male actor was the only one that got green juice," she continued.

"I don't want to seem petty or anything, but I remember on this other job, and it was with Billy Bob Thornton, and he was allowed to bring his pet coyote."

Never change, Jennifeer Coolidge.

Petition for Seth Rogen and Catherine O'Hara to be hosts next year.

These two are magic together, with their upcoming series The Studio not coming soon enough. They had the audience laughing their heads off.

"We are actually both much more acclaimed for our Canadian work," Seth said, before listing a variety of projects like the 'Alanis Morissette Story', the 'Ryan Gosling Unauthorised biopic', and a porno called Knuckles Deep. 

No one was giggling more than Jake Gyllenhaal.

Sofía Vergara was the ultimate hype woman to Jodie Foster.

Jodie Foster won the award for Actress in a Limited Series or Anthology and no one was more hyped than her competition, Sophia Vergara.

Despite losing to Foster, the Griselda star was hooting and hollering loudly as the iconic Hollywood actress collected her award.

"The greatest thing about being this age and being in this time is having a community of all these people, especially you, Sofia," she joked.

Demi Moore made us all sob with her legendary speech.

After winning Best Actress in a Comedy or Musical for The Substance, Demi Moore gave a speech for the history books.

"I really was not expecting that. I am in shock right now. I have been doing this a long time. Over 45 years. This is the first time I have ever won anything as an actor," she began.

Moore said that she was always told she was a 'popcorn actress' who would never win accolades. She had almost given up on her career when The Substance came to her.

"Maybe I was complete. Maybe I had done what I was supposed to do. As I was at a low point. I had this magical, bold, courageous out-of-the-box absolutely bonkers script come across my desk called The Substance. The universe told me you are not done. I am so grateful for them trusting me to play this woman, for Margaret by being the other half of me I could not have done without."

She then sent a message to women. "I would just leave you with one thing I think this movie is imparting: in those moments when we don't think we're smart enough or pretty enough or skinny enough or are basically just not enough.

"I had a woman say to me 'just know you will never be 'enough' but you can know the value of your worth if you just put down the measuring stick.'"

The speech received rapturous applause from the audience.

Elton John gave a hilarious health update.

"There's been a lot of stories going on about my regressive eyesight and I wanted to reassure everybody that it's not as bad as it seems so I'm so pleased to be here with my co-host, Rihanna," he said, as he turned to Brandi Carlile.

I laughed out loud, very good.

Jeff Goldblum and Michelle Yeoh are baffled by internet slang.

Zaddy and Mother are confused.

"The Internet has been saying things about us since our movie came out. For instance people have been calling me zaddy," Jeff said.

"The same people have been saying that I am serving mother and slaying the boot's house down," Michelle added. "And while we do not fully understand what these things mean, we absolutely love it."

The Vin Diesel and The Rock feud is back on!!!

As Vin Diesel presented the Cinematic and Box Office Achievement award (won by Wicked), he stared down into the audience and randomly said "Hey Dwayne" who briefly smiled before turning steely-faced.

This is awkward!!

ICYMI: these two have been feuding for years so this is big news!

Hacks, once again, dominated the awards.

Writer and creator, Paul W. Downs, fronted the stage with all the cast and crew when Hacks won for Comedy or Musical TV Series. While up there, Downs made an iconic joke about star, Jean Smart, who also won in her category.

"We do have to shoot tomorrow and we have a call time of six o'clock so if Jean Smart asks you for a shot, please do not give it to her. Kate Winslet, I'm looking at you, wherever you are. Give her water if she wants it," he said.

Australian actors missed out on all their awards.

Cate Blanchette, Guy Pierce and Naomi Watts were all snubbed in their categories.

Arguably, the best chance for an award was Nicole Kidman for Babygirl, but she missed out on the Actress in a Drama to Fernanda Torres for I'm Still Here.

The Brutalist and Emilia Perez both came out swinging.

Both movies dominated, winning most of the categories, which puts both movies in good standing for the rest of the awards season.

For Emilia Perez, the star of the film, transgender actress, Karla Sofía Gascón, gave a swirling speech to cap off the evening.

"The light always wins over darkness... put us in jail, you come beat us up, you never can take away our soul, our resistance or identity. I want to say to you, raise your voice," she said. "I am who I am, not who you want."
