Long after Megan Markle bid farewell to "Suits," concluding its run on September 25th, 2019, two of the show's co-stars are gearing up for a reunion.
According to a report by Variety, Gabriel Macht and Patrick J. Adams are slated to present at the 81st Annual Golden Globe Awards on January 7th at 8:00 p.m. EST. The prestigious event is set to unfold at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills. Esteemed US comedian Joe Koy, renowned for his Comedy Central and Netflix specials, is set to lead the ceremony this year.
While the glitz and glamour of the Golden Globe Awards are on the horizon, there's a curious absence in the mix. Megan Markle, it seems, has been notably snubbed from the 81st Annual Golden Globe Awards. Speculations abound that even if she were invited to present, she might opt out due to fears of being mocked by certain comedians at the awards. Notably, comedian Ricky Gervais, nominated for an award, might not miss the chance to poke fun at the royal couple, Harry and Megan, given his history of brutally honest and sometimes controversial jokes.
Ricky Gervais, the much-loved British comic with a global fanbase, is known for his audacious and unapologetic humor. While he's never been offered a Knighthood by the royal family, Gervais took to Twitter in December 2018 to express that he wouldn't have wanted one anyway. In his characteristic style, he tweeted about his humble beginnings and success as an international comedian, concluding with a cheeky rejection of the Knighthood suggestion. Despite any potential backlash, Gervais remains unapologetic and continues to deliver his quippy, offensive jokes.
Gervais's penchant for fearless humor extends to his experiences with high-profile guests, including members of the royal family. He shared anecdotes about having Madonna, Paul McCartney, and Princes William and Harry on the guest list for one of his shows. His remarks humorously highlighted the security measures that come with having a prince attend, including seven people with guns getting in for free.
Notably, in the 2020 Golden Globes, Gervais didn't shy away from addressing the Hollywood Elite's ties to Jeffrey Epstein. During his 7-minute monologue, he called out Leonardo DiCaprio's dating preferences and made a gag about Prince Andrew's allegations. Gervais continued to mock the industry's shift towards streaming services like Netflix, humorously suggesting that the awards show should be condensed into him praising everything on Netflix.
In a particularly controversial moment, Gervais referenced Jeffrey Epstein and drew parallels with a fictional character's fate in a Netflix show. The audacious comedian's remarks elicited a loud reaction from the audience, but Gervais stood his ground, emphasizing his commitment to candid commentary.
In the end, Ricky Gervais remains an influential figure unafraid to challenge the status quo with his unfiltered humor, making any event he attends an unpredictable spectacle. As the Golden Globe Awards approach, the anticipation grows for what the irreverent comedian might say on the grand stage.
