On Friday evening, Viola Davis received the Cecil B. DeMille Award, and Ted Danson was honored with the Carol Burnett Award at the Golden Globes’ first-ever Golden Gala. Previously, these two awards had been given during the live broadcast, but this year they were awarded during a special event attended by luminaries such as Jane Fonda, Meryl Streep, Mary Steenburgen, Carol Burnett, Anthony Anderson, and Babyface.

This represented the second Golden Globes event since its longstanding supporter, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, was replaced after Dick Clark Productions and Eldridge acquired all the HFPA’s assets, rights, and properties. Instead of the HFPA, a diverse group of voters from various racial and ethnic backgrounds, comprising journalists from around the globe, now selects the nominees and winners. (Dick Clark Productions currently owns and oversees the Golden Globe Awards, with DCP being owned by Penske Media Eldridge, a collaboration between Penske Media Corporation and Eldridge, which also owns The Hollywood Reporter.)

The 82nd annual Golden Globe Awards were broadcast live from the Beverly Hilton on CBS and were available for streaming on Paramount+. Emmy-winning producers Glenn Weiss and Ricky Kirshner served as showrunners for another consecutive year.
