The Golden Globes revealed its first list of presenters on Feb. 17, which includes several past winners and nominees. Celebrity presenters include Awkwafina, Cynthia Erivo, Joaquin Phoenix, Kristen Wiig, Renée Zellweger and Annie Mumolo.
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which is behind the awards show, said in January that its 2021 Golden Globes ambassadors will be Satchel and Jackson Lee, the children of director Spike Lee and producer Tonya Lewis Lee. This marks the first time in the show’s history that two siblings of color are taking on the role. The Lee siblings will help give out the awards and will raise awareness for the charities Callen-Lorde, which provides health care to the LGBTQ+ community, and Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, which works to empower youth.
Who is receiving honorary awards?
The HFPA is awarding its Cecil B. DeMille award to Jane Fonda this year. The association’s third Carol Burnett Award, which recognizes accomplishments in television, will go to actor Norman Lear.
Will there be an in-person ceremony?
Like other awards shows that have taken place during the pandemic, the 2021 Golden Globes will be a hybrid in-person and remote telecast.
According to a report by Variety, Golden Globes producers have asked presenters to appear in person at the Rainbow Room or Beverly Hilton, following the practice seen at last year’s Emmy Awards. It is expected that nominees will appear virtually.
Will there be a pre-show?
“HFPA Presents: Globes Countdown Live” will air before the 2021 Golden Globes starting at 6:30 p.m. EST on the Golden Globes Twitter account.
