The Golden Globes had a near-death experience last year. NBC, which had broadcast the Globes every year but one since 1996 (a WGA strike kept the show off the air in 2008) declined to air the show in the wake of a fierce backlash by various media companies, actors and other creatives over a lack of diversity in the organization.
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) held the presentation privately, with the results announced via press release and on the Golden Globe Awards’ social media pages – a humbling fall-from-grace for a show that was long one of the top-rated and most entertaining awards shows on the awards calendar.
The crisis stemmed from a report in The Los Angeles Times that revealed that the organization didn’t include a single Black voting member. The organization has since made efforts to boost the diversity of its voting body. The host, Jerrod Carmichael, and executive producer, Jesse Collins, of the Jan. 10, 2023, Golden Globes are both Black – an obvious effort on the HFPA’s part to show that it has gotten the message about the need for diversity.
The HFPA went to the extraordinary length of including a list of “HFPA Reforms” in the press materials it distributed along with this year’s nominations. So, in addition to the usual fare — lists of movies, TV shows and distributors that had the most nominations; a list of 41 performers who received their first Globe nominations this year; and a half-dozen fun factoids about various nominees, the HFPA released the following summary of changes it has made to address the controversies that took the show off the air last year and put is future in doubt.
Here is their report, in full:
HFPA REFORMS
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association has answered the call for change by restructuring the organization in order to address institutional and systemic concerns. This has allowed the Association to increase diversity, transparency, and accountability on its journey of transformational change. These accomplishments are by no means final; they are fluid and adaptable. As the Association continues its work, it invites participation from its partners as an important component of this growth. A key goal of the HFPA continues to be the creation of an environment where more journalists from diverse backgrounds will want to participate and where members are held accountable for their behavior, both within the organization and as professionals in the industry.
Membership & Diversity
People of color are represented in decision-making throughout the organization. The board of directors currently has three Black members, increasing the overall diversity of the Board to 40% people of color and 67% female. A chief diversity officer oversees the DEI efforts of the HFPA.
The voting body doubled in size with the addition of 103 new voters recruited from international industry organizations. The new voters are composed of 22.3% Latinx, 13.6% Black, 11.7% Asian, 10.7% Middle Eastern, and 41.7% White, with 58.3% self-identifying as ethnically diverse.
Combined with the current HFPA membership, the total Golden Globe Awards voting body is 52% female, 51.5% racially and ethnically diverse with 19.5% Latinx, 12% Asian, 10% Black and 10% Middle Eastern, making it the most diverse major award[‘s body] in Hollywood. The total number of voters is now 200 and includes individuals who self-identify as LGBTQIA+.
Geographically, the voters represent 62 countries around the world.
NAACP has been working closely with the HFPA aiming to increase diverse representation throughout the industry, including the launch of the Reimagine Coalition.
Ethics & Safety Protections
The HFPA adopted new policies to eliminate ethical conflicts:
New grievance process involves a confidential reporting hotline managed by two independent outside law firms that investigate any complaints and recommend any disciplinary action to the CEO and the Board. New bylaws provide for a variety of sanctions, including suspension, termination, expulsion, or additional compulsory education and training. All members must attend mandatory DEI training sessions.
As part of the code of conduct governing ethical behavior, members are required to act with appropriate decorum, respect and professionalism and will be subject to disciplinary review if grievances are reported. All voters must sign an annual code of conduct.
A universal gift ban, eliminating any gifts provided by any publicist, agent, talent, management, studio, production company, media outlet, awards consultant, network or streamer. Modified travel policies to eliminate paid air travel by studios.
All HFPA members are subject to a mandatory annual reaccreditation process overseen by a Credentials Committee composed of a majority of external industry advisors.
Press Conferences
In order to focus on the upcoming historic 80th Annual Golden Globe Awards, the HFPA opted to eliminate HFPA-exclusive press conferences this year to support the viewing of eligible content by the newly expanded voter base, including international voters for the first time.
The Golden Globe nominations are out for 2023, and there were, as always with major awards shows, a fair number of snubs and surprises.
But first, we’ll catch you up: The Banshees of Inisherin is the year’s top nominee, with eight nods, ahead of Evervthing Everywhere All at Once (six), Babylon (five) and The Fabelmans (five). Elvis, Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio and TÁR are next with three nods each.
On the TV side, Abbott Elementary is the top nominee with five nods, ahead of The Crown, Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, Only Murders in the Building, Pam & Tommy and The White Lotus, with four each.
Three of music’s hottest female stars – Rihanna, Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift – are among the nominees for best original song.
Two of this year’s best original song nominees were co-written by the film’s director. Ryan Coogler, who directed Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, also co-wrote the nominated song “Lift Me Up.” Guillermo del Toro, who co-directed Guillermo Del Toro’s Pinocchio with Mark Gustafson, also co-wrote “Ciao Papa.”
Meanwhile, four of the five nominees for best score are past winners in the category – John Williams, who has won a record-tying four times; Alexandre Desplat and Justin Hurwitz, who are both two-time winners in the category; and Hildur Guðnadóttir, who won three years ago. The only non-winner who is nominated this year is Carter Burwell, nominated for The Banshees of Inisherin.
Jerrod Carmichael is set to host the 80th annual Golden Globe Awards. The three-hour telecast will air live coast-to-coast on Tuesday, Jan. 10, 2023, at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT from The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, Calif., on NBC and Peacock.
Now that you’re caught up on the important details, here’s the fun part – snubs and surprises.

Three of music’s hottest female stars – Rihanna, Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift – are among the nominees for best song at the 2023 Golden Globes. Meanwhile, four of the five nominees for best score are past winners in the category, including the venerable John Williams, who has won a record-tying four times.
The nominations for the 80th Golden Globes were announced on Monday (Dec. 12).
Best Song
Rihanna is nominated for “Lift Me Up” from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Rihanna co-wrote the ballad, which entered the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 2., with Ryan Coogler, who directed and co-wrote the film; Ludwig Göransson, who scored the film; and Tems. “All the Stars,” from the original Black Panther, was nominated in this category four years ago.
Gaga, who won in the category four years ago for co-writing “Shallow” from A Star Is Born, is nominated for co-writing “Hold My Hand” from Top Gun: Maverick. Bloodpop was her co-writer on the song, which peaked at a lower-than-expected No. 49 on the Hot 100.
Swift was nominated for “Carolina” from Where the Crawdads Sing. This is Swift’s fourth nomination in the category, following Safe & Sound from The Hunger Games (2012), “Sweeter Than Fiction” from One Chance (2013) and “Beautiful Ghosts” from Cats (2019). Swift worked with different collaborators on each of those songs (The Civil Wars, Jack Antonoff and Andrew Lloyd Webber, respectively). She wrote the new song by herself.
Here’s a full list of the nominees for best song:
“Carolina,” Taylor Swift (Where the Crawdads Sing)
“Ciao Papa,” Guillermo del Toro & Roeban Katz (Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio)
“Hold My Hand,” Lady Gaga and Bloodpop (Top Gun: Maverick)
“Lift Me Up,” Tems, Ludwig Göransson, Rihanna and Ryan Coogler (Black Panther: Wakanda Forever)
“Naatu Naatu,” Kala Bhairava, M. M. Keeravani, Rahul Sipligunj (RRR)

Best Score
Four of the five nominees for best score are past winners in the category.
John Williams, nominated for The Fabelmans, has won four times for Jaws (1975), Star Wars (1977), E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (1982) and Memoirs of a Geisha (2005). He is tied with Dimitri Tiomkin and Maurice Jarre for the most wins in the history of the category; this could be the tie-breaker. This is his record-extending 25th nomination in the category.
Alexandre Desplat nominated for Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio, has won twice, for The Painted Veil (2006) and The Shape of Water (2017).
Justin Hurwitz, nominated for Babylon, has won twice, for La La Land (2016) and First Man (2018).

Jerrod Carmichael is set to host the 80th Annual Golden Globe Awards. The three-hour telecast will air live coast-to-coast on Tuesday, Jan. 10, 2023, at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT from The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, Calif., on NBC and Peacock.
The 79th Annual Golden Globes wasn’t broadcast in January. In support of boycotts of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) by various media companies, actors and other creatives over a lack of diversity in the organization, NBC declined to televise the show. The HFPA held the presentation privately, with the results announced via press release and on the Golden Globe Awards’ social media pages – a humbling fall-from-grace for a show that was long one of the top-rated and most entertaining awards shows on the awards calendar.
The crisis stemmed from a report in The Los Angeles Times that revealed that the organization didn’t include a single Black voting member. The organization has since made efforts to boost the diversity of its voting body. The upcoming show’s executive producer, Jesse Collins, and host, Carmichael, are both Black, in an obvious effort to show that it has gotten the message about the need for diversity. Carmichael will be the show’s first Black host since Shaun Robinson co-hosted the 2007 show.
“We’re so excited to have Jerrod Carmichael host the historic 80th Golden Globe Awards,” Helen Hoehne, president of the HFPA, said in a statement. “His comedic talents have entertained and thrilled audiences while providing thought-provoking moments that are so important in the times we live. Jerrod is the special kind of talent this show calls for to kick off the awards season.”
“Jerrod is a phenomenal talent with a fresh perspective and excellent comedic style,” said Collins, CEO of Jesse Collins Entertainment, who is set to executive produce the show the show with Dionne Harmon, a top executive in his company. “We’re all thrilled to have him host this year’s show.”
The show will be produced by dick clark productions and Jesse Collins Entertainment in association with the HFPA.
Carmichael, Collins and Harmon all won their first Primetime Emmy Awards this year. Carmichael won outstanding writing for a variety special for his HBO special Jerrod Carmichael: Rothaniel. Collins and Harmon both won outstanding variety special (live) as executive producer and co-executive producer, respectively, of The Pepsi Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show Starring Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, 50 Cent.
Carmichael shared his personal coming-out story on Jerrod Carmichael: Rothaniel. He received a second Emmy nomination this year for his hosting debut on Saturday Night Live. The comedian rose to fame in 2014 in the comedy film Neighbors and with his first HBO stand-up special, Love at the Store, directed by Spike Lee. Carmichael went on to co-create, co-write, produce and star in The Carmichael Show, a semi-biographical sitcom that aired on NBC for three seasons starting in 2015. In 2017, Bo Burnham directed his sophomore HBO special, Jerrod Carmichael: 8. Burnham also directed Jerrod Carmichael: Rothaniel, and received an Emmy nod for his efforts.
The Golden Globe Awards is one of the few awards shows that honor both film and television. It long had a reputation as “Hollywood’s party of the year.” The question now is whether, after a scandal that took it off the air for a year, it can regain that status.
