The Funnyman Who Hosted Golden Globes Over The Weekend Has Addressed Some Of His Controversial Jokes At The Event Including One About The ‘Cruel Summer’ Hitmaker.
The “Anti-Hero” songstress looked unimpressed at the gag as she failed to crack a smile and instead took a sip of her champagne but Jo has now insisted he meant no harm by the joke. He told US TV show Extra, “It was a compliment, like she could be more intimate tonight, that’s all
The “Easter Sunday” star didn’t seem to be too disheartened by Taylor’s ostensibly unimpressed reaction either. He told Entertainment Tonight, “Aww, man, it was cute. I was just saying it was cute.”
Some of Jo’s other jokes during his opening monologue also received a lukewarm reception, as he poked fun at 2023 blockbusters “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” and later blamed his less successful gags on other writers.
He said, “Some I wrote, some other people wrote. Yo, I got the gig ten days ago! You want a perfect monologue? Shut up! You’re kidding me, right? I wrote some of these, and they’re the ones you’re laughing at.
Among his more successful jokes was one aimed at Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, which even drew a laugh from Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos. Joking about the working habits of the royal family, Jo quipped, “Harry and Meghan Markle got paid millions for doing absolutely nothing – and that’s just by Netflix.”
