Golden Globes 2026: Everything You Didn’t See on TV

by

No awards show provides a space for stars to let loose quite like the Golden Globes.

The Golden Globes ceremony took place on January 11th, with Nikki Glaser hosting for the second year in a row. The event brought together top stars from both movies and television at the Beverly Hilton, where they celebrated wins and nominations amidst a festive atmosphere. You can find a complete list of the 2026 Golden Globes winners elsewhere.

Thankfully, everyone was safe after a minor fire backstage in the press room. It started when a coffee pot was bumped, causing an exposed sterno can to ignite, but the flames were quickly extinguished.

Kylie Jenner was in the audience as Timothée Chalamet won Best Actor for his energetic performance in Marty Supreme. She was visibly thrilled, hugging his fellow actress Odessa A’Zion after the announcement.

Amy Poehler, host of the podcast Good Hang, won the first-ever Best Podcast award. Her ex-husband and fellow nominee, Will Arnett, wasn’t upset at all about her win.

Okay, so I was totally scanning the room, and there he was – Leonardo DiCaprio! Can you believe it? He didn’t win, Timothée Chalamet got it, but honestly, seeing Leo just there was enough. He seemed to be having a blast, especially as One Battle After Another just swept the awards – four wins total! And Paul Thomas Anderson? Ugh, a legend. He brought Maya Rudolph – they’ve been together for twenty-five years! – and it was the cutest thing ever. She gave him this amazing kiss after he won for Best Screenplay. I swear, I almost died of happiness just watching them. It was a perfect night!

Interestingly, PTA received his first award of the evening from Macaulay Culkin, who was attending the Golden Globes for the first time in 35 years. It was a memorable event for both of them, marking Culkin’s return to the ceremony.

Glaser kept the over three-hour show lively, playfully teasing stars like Michael B. Jordan, Sean Penn, George Clooney, Kevin Hart, and Dwayne Johnson, as well as topics like the show The White Lotus, Warner Bros., and current events. She then delivered a hilarious parody of Nicole Kidman’s famous AMC Theaters commercial.

You’re clearly eager to know what happened behind the scenes at the 2026 Golden Globes, so here’s a look at what wasn’t shown on television.

Is there anyone in Hollywood who wasn’t thrilled to meet the rising star who recently won Best Supporting Actor in a TV series?

No, there is not.

At the 2026 Golden Globes, Teyana edged out Ariana Grande in the Best Supporting Actress category. Teyana won for her powerful performance in One Battle After Another, while Ariana starred in Wicked: For Good.

Kylie and Timothée have been going to the Golden Globes together for three years. In 2026, Timothée finally won his first award while Kylie was there – he was named Best Lead Actor in a Motion Picture, Comedy/Musical for his role in Marty Supreme.

Though Jacob Elordi didn’t win either of his nominations at the Golden Globes, he had a pleasant and relaxed interaction with his co-star from the movie Deep Water.

Although the two biggest stars in Hollywood are both married to other people, they look great together as public faces for the industry.

Now this is some studio power right here.

Did the Hollywood Foreign Press Association introduce a new award for ‘Coolest Guy in the Room’? We didn’t receive any announcement, but we just found out who won!

Leo is likely sharing a very private Hollywood joke with Julia. She recently received a standing ovation while presenting the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture, Musical/Comedy to One Battle After Another, and the two of them are clearly close to the heart of the industry.

Marlon shared a golden moment with Kpop Demon Hunters‘ star voice artists.

It’s safe to say Kristen probably agreed to be in the director’s next musical – likely Wicked: For Good, right?

Steve snapped a cute photo with his Only Murders in the Building co-stars, including Selena Gomez’s husband, Benny, while they were hanging out together.

No lorazepam was needed for this White Lotus reunion.

Life often has unexpected timing – like when a close friend or family member shows up just as you’re in the middle of something, or your partner is occupied.

The director and star of Sorry, Baby were visibly emotional about the Hamnet actress just before Jessie Buckley won Best Actress in a Motion Picture, Drama.

Having just won a Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Drama Series, the lead actor of The Pitt is still amazed by his success, especially considering he’s achieved this by simply portraying a doctor better than George Clooney.

Teyana was overjoyed after unexpectedly winning the award for Best Supporting Actress in a movie.

Justin was likely following Sterling’s recovery, as his former This Is Us co-star had shown up at the Emmys four months prior while still recovering from a leg injury.

Just a couple of goddesses wishing each other well.
