Ricky Gervais reveals outrageous jokes he would make if hosting 2025 Golden Globes
Share:
It’s been four years since Ricky Gervais last hosted the Golden Globes, during which he left the star-studded audience cringing and wincing with his cancellable gags. The room filled with uncomfortable laughter as the controversial comic referenced Jeffrey Epstein, joked about actors taking drugs, and took aim at Leonardo DiCaprio for dating women in their twenties.

Now, as we gear up for the 2025 ceremony, Gervais, 63, has revealed what jokes he would be making if he were to return to host the prestigious gig for a sixth time. Spoiler alert: he had no intention of holding back. Taking to X, he wrote to his 14.9million followers: ‘Sat in the bath wondering about what I would say if I were hosting The Golden Globes on Sunday. It’s been a pretty good year for material.’.
‘Hello, and welcome to the 82nd Golden Globe awards,’ he continued, acting out his monologue. ‘What a year it’s been. Hundreds of entertainers jumped at the chance to go to The Vatican to meet The Pope. Many from Hollywood. Obviously they weren’t content with only being part of the 2nd biggest pedo ring in the world…’.
Gervais continued: ‘Justin Timberlake was convicted of [drunk driving]. If he’d have gone to jail he’d have heard the words “Sexy Back” a lot more often.’. His roast wouldn’t have ended there, as Gervais would’ve also mentioned Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, who is currently behind bars on charges of racketeering and sex trafficking.
