Jo Koy’s Failed Attempt at NFL-Swift Humor
Attempting to infuse humor into the glamorous evening, Jo Koy quipped, “The big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL – on the Golden Globes, we have fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift.” The punchline continued with, “I swear, there’s just more to go to.” Unfortunately for Koy, Swift did not find the jest amusing. Maintaining a calm and composeddemeanourr, she took a sip of her drink, refusing to offer any visible reaction to the comedian’s attempt at humour. Even Swift’s best friend, Selena Gomez, appeared equally unimpressed, creating a collective aura of discomfort.
Selena Gomez’s Reaction to Jo Koy’s Barbie Jokes
As if one awkward moment wasn’t enough, Jo Koy continued his comedic misadventure with a series of Barbie-related jokes. The camera panned to Selena Gomez, who was caught looking down, expressing her lack of enthusiasm for the ongoing banter. Fans sensed a wave of ‘second-hand cringe’ as the comedian’s jokes failed to resonate with the audience. The discomfort extended beyond Gomez, with reactions of unease visible on the faces of Emma Stone, Ayo Edebiri, Helen Mirren, Yorgos Lanthimos, and Harrison Ford. Koy’s remark about Barbie’s transformation from perceived flaws to a “character actor” failed to land, leaving the room with a sense of collective discomfort.
