Ricky Gervais makes it his mission not leave any section of Hollywood un-offended when he hosts the Golden Globes. But for all his jokes about terrorism and paedophilia, it was a joke about a Dame’s privates that got him in trouble this year.
The After Life star has revealed that lawyers were concerned about a joke he wrote into his Golden Globes 2020 monologue, which mentioned Dame Judi Dench’s ‘minge’.
Yup, it’s a classy show, folks. The 58-year-old reflected on hosting the Globes for the fifth and final time in January with Seth Meyers, and explained that because he lives in the UK, he doesn’t prep as much as other seasoned hosts who live in the States.
