Golden Globes

ARIANA Grande has ditched her blonde hairdo for natural brunette locks at the Golden Globe Awards on Sunday.

The actress arrived to the 83rd annual ceremony with a total hair transformation after spending the past two years with a platinum hairstyle.

Ariana, 32, committed to her Wicked character, Glinda, by trading in her darker hair color for blonde; however, she switched back to her original roots for Sunday night’s awards.

The singer arrived at the red carpet with her hair tied back in a sleek, high ponytail.

She donned a black off-the-shoulder gown that hugged her petite figure at the top before billowing at the waist.

The Thank U, Next singer kept her makeup simple with winged eyeliner and accessorized with diamond jewelry.

“Omg the dark brows and hair she’s back,” added a fourth.

Ariana is one of the many A-list celebrities to turn heads at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, California, ahead of the awards.

Two-time awards show host, Nikki Glaser, also stunned in a light pink gown, as she twirled for the cameras.

Like Ariana, Selena Gomez opted for an off-the-shoulder black dress, though hers fell straight to her slim figure and featured a white, feathery top.

The Only Murders in the Building star posed alongside her musician husband, Benny Blanco, who sported a black suit for the evening.

Additionally, Love Island USA star Olandria Carthen left fans in awe with her debut at the prestigious event.

The reality star rocked an emerald green strapless mermaid-style gown with her hair in a tight updo.

Wednesday star Jenna Ortega also showed significant skin on the carpet, wearing a black dress with massive cut-outs around her midsection, flaunting her tiny waistline.

NIKKI Glaser did not hold back on the Hollywood elite as she returned as Golden Globes host for the second time.

Nikki, who, first hosted in 2025, shocked fans with jokes that ranged from Leonardo DiCaprio’s dating history to jabs at the DOJ over the Epstein files.

The 41-year-old previously told TMZ that she would not be playing it too safe with her jokes.

“Never too safe, you know. Safe enough. I want the job again,” she said. “I don’t want to ruin anyone’s night but I’m gonna have some fun.”

Taking to the stage for the 83rd annual Golden Globes on Sunday night, the comedian didn’t hold back in her opening monologue.

EDITING AND THE EPSTEIN LIST

“There are so many A-listers — and by A-listers, I do mean people who are on ‘A list’ that has been heavily redacted,” Nikki said as the room erupted in chatter.

“The Golden Globe for best editing goes to … the Justice Department!”

The joke comes as attention around revealing all of the information regarding sex offender Jeffrey Epstein continues to grow. More than 20,000 new files were released in November, but Americans were disappointed to find some documents were redacted with information blacked out.

After the Epstein list jab, Nikki took aim at CBS News. CBS and the Golden Globes announced in March 2024 that the two entered a five-year deal for CBS to broadcast the award show on its network and streaming service, Paramount+.

“And the award for most editing goes to CBS News,” Nikki said. “Yes, CBS News, America’s newest place to see BS news. We needed another.”

The dig comes off the back of CBS News making numerous programming and editorial changes in recent months.

Nikki went on to make jokes about some celebrities in attendance, including Leo, George Clooney and the iconic duo Kevin Hart and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

LEO DATING HISTORY DIG

“What a career you have had! Countless iconic performances,” she said to Leo.

“You’ve worked with every great director, you’ve won three Golden Globes [and] an Oscar.”

“The most impressive thing is that you were able to accomplish that all before your girlfriend turned 30,” Nikki quipped. “I mean, it’s just insane.”

Leo has made headlines for reportedly having a dating track record of women around the age of 25.

“Isn’t that joke old?” another X user said.

“Nikki Glaser making such a good joke about Leonardo DiCaprio, i laughed so hard, SAY GIRL,” another person wrote.

NESPRESSO ROAST + DYNAMIC DUO

Nikki also singled out George in the crowd, who is nominated for Best Performance by a Male Actor in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy for his role in Jay Kelly.

“I’ve always wanted to ask you this question, and I know this is unprofessional, but I might not get a chance to do it again, so here goes: My Nespresso has been coming out watery. I’m wondering is that a pot issue? Or you think it might be the filter? Could you troubleshoot it for me later?”

The coffee-themed roast was a play on George’s longtime role as spokesperson for Nespresso.

George was seen laughing and playing along with her joke, nodding and mouthing a response to her.

Nikki then went on to call out an iconic acting duo, Kevin and The Rock, who have starred in several movies together, including Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle.

Nikki referred to Kevin as The Rock’s “plus one-half,” calling the pair her “favorite comedy duo.”

“You’re like like Steve Martin and Martin Short for people under 50 IQ,” Nikki said. “You know what I mean? We need movies too.”

Kevin was spotted laughing at the joke and clapping at Nikki’s jokes.

Steve and Martin were in attendance for the Golden Globes with nominations for their show Only Murders in the Building. Cameras panned to the actors who erupted in laughter after the joke.

Timothee looked excited to have won the honor, presented by Jennifer Lopez; however, fans couldn’t help but notice an uncomfortable exchange he had with his partner of three years, Kylie.

Upon hearing his name, the movie star gave the TV personality, who was dressed in a skintight silver gown, a super quick peck that nearly missed her lips while getting up to accept the award.

Once on stage, viewers wondered if he’d mention Kylie, considering he gushed over her while receiving an award at the Critics’ Choice Awards earlier this month.

Timothee ended up giving a quick shout out to Kylie at the end of his speech saying, “For my partner, I love you.”
