It’s time to get totally globular. The Golden Globe nominations were announced by Mindy Kaling and Morris Chestnut on December 9, continuing a wildly heating up awards season. Globes members, famous for their love of glitz, glamour, and pizzazz, had a ball with Emilia Pérez this year, giving it the most nominations overall, with a total of ten. That doesn’t seem like so many until you realize that no other movie got more than seven, then you become more shocked than Selena Gomez is when she — [redacted due to spoiler]. Also getting a big boost from the Globes is the body-horror shocker The Substance, which is not currently predicted to scoop up a ton of Oscar nominations, but which nabbed a shocking five nominations, including nods for its stars, Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley.
Over in the TV side, perhaps the most notable nomination is for Squid Game, which scored a Best Television Series – Drama nod, despite not even getting reviewed yet. That’s a common practice in movies (looking at you, A Complete Unknown) but is much less common on the TV side. But the truth is that the Globes are gonna globe — and that’s why we love hate enjoy them.
