Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner nearly missed the Golden Globes for a peculiar reason, their attendance at the January 5th awards ceremony igniting a frenzy among fans with their enchanting presence. Yet, whispers emerged that the lovebirds were almost tardy to the event, strategically aiming to dodge a segment that held special significance—or rather, significance they wished to avoid.
Nikki Glaser, during her recent stint at the Time100 Summit, unveiled an intriguing behind-the-scenes tale. She disclosed that the publicist of "Dune" heartthrob Chalamet had been forewarned about her inclusion of the 29-year-old reality TV star in her Golden Globes monologue. Consequently, Chalamet had contemplated bypassing Glaser's opening remarks entirely.
Glaser, a candid 40-year-old, admitted she harbored no resentment towards his potential absence. She empathetically grasped his dilemma, considering his companion was already "the butt of numerous jokes." For those unaware, Jenner had been the target of playful ribbing over her moustache—a nod to her former costar Zendaya's remark—and her voice-over role as Bob Dylan in the film "A Complete Unknown."
During her comedic performance, Glaser wittily skewered, "Timothée Chalamet, you possess the most mesmerizing eyelashes—but on your upper lip. It's quite the fashion statement!" She didn't stop there, further mocking the American actor, "Your portrayal of Bob Dylan in 'A Complete Unknown' was stellar. I heard your singing voice was so spot-on that even Bob Dylan himself conceded it was absolutely dreadful."
With such a memorable act, Glaser has secured her spot as the host for the Golden Globes in 2026, promising another round of hilarious and poignant moments.
