The Golden Globes awards show where inebriated stars have historically made historical asses of themselves–because guests indulge in a cornucopia of chemicals, but presumably because of the open bar–is having trouble signing on an emcee for the festivities and even got slapped down by comedian Chris Rock, himself part of a kerfuffle at a different awards show.
Per CNN, the event planners for the Hollywood Foreign Press Association want to strike the right note for the January 7th show and have reportedly reached out to others, including the trio of “SmartLess” podcast hosts Will Arnett, Sean Hayes and Jason Bateman, and Ali Wong of the Netflix series “Beef.” But with fading ratings and just four weeks including the holiday season to rehearse, the chances of getting an A- or B-list celebrity fade.
