All eyes on the Golden Globes… for the wrong reasons

If you need some glamour, today’s 80th Golden Globes ceremony could be just the ticket – but for the organisers, there’s much more than red-carpet perfection at stake… In recent years, the awards have been plagued by scandal and controversy over a lack of diversity and “ethical lapses”, culminating in it being pulled from broadcast last year as Tom Cruise said he’d give back his 3 trophies. This year, Aussies nominated include Cate Blanchett, Margot Robbie, Hugh Jackman, Baz Luhrmann and Elizabeth Debicki. Whether they’ll show up remains to be seen, with Jackman the only one from that pack to publicly celebrate his nomination… A lack of big-name attendees could be totes awks for the presenters, including Jamie Lee Curtis, Ana de Armas and Quentin Tarantino. You can catch the event live on Stan from 11am AEDT this morning. Meet you back here tomorrow for a Squiz at a red carpet gallery…
