00:00How does it feel to be here tonight presenting, but also with so many different films?

00:04I feel so good being here.

00:06You know, I'm proud of every film that has been acknowledged and nominated.

00:11And to be able to, like, witness firsthand some of the work that went into each of these projects

00:16and to be a part of so many different projects just feels so special.

00:20One of those projects, of course, is Barbie.

00:22And 2023 was the year of the Barbie movie and a great year for women in entertainment.

00:27How do we bring that energy into 2024?

00:29Man, you've got to ask the people the powers that be.

00:32I'm like, we are out here doing the work.

00:34Greta is an absolute pleasant genius, and she was able to, like, fight for her vision on the film.

00:42But that's also because Margot believed in her to bring her on for this particular project.

00:47And so that's an example of women championing and believing in other women.

00:51And that had a huge reward.

00:53It took over the year.

00:54So I think, you know, in some ways it's up to us to support other people.

00:58Other women for big-name actresses to work and champion big-name female directors.

01:07But in other ways, the industry just has to wise up.

01:10When you're choosing projects, is that something you think about, about working with other powerful women?

01:15I think about working with other powerful women.

01:18I think about working with other up-and-coming black people.

01:20I'm always trying to see who I'm a fan of and who I feel like just deserves that shot.

01:27And sometimes it lends itself to the biggest reward.

01:33Of course, the Golden Globes celebrate the best of movies and TV.

01:36While you're here for some films, you also, of course, are no stranger to the TV world.

01:40What's a show from this past year that you especially loved?

01:43I loved beef.

01:45I loved beer.

01:47I love Jury Duty so much.

01:52There are so many shows.

01:53I know I'm leaving things out.

01:55But I've been watching a lot of TV this year.

01:59And TV is always killing it.

02:00I'm sorry.

02:01That's always going to be my medium of choice.

02:02No offense.

02:03I know this is blended.

02:04But TV, nobody does it like us.

02:06Speaking of Jury Duty, I talked to Ronald earlier.

02:08And I was way too excited about it.

02:11I'm like, where's he at?

02:13He's got to be having the best year ever.

02:15The best couple of years, you know.

02:17So I'm happy for him.

02:18I know he has like a deal now to produce.

02:21So welcome to Hollywood, Ronald.

02:22He's in it now.

02:23Yeah.

02:24He has a Hollywood face.

02:25I can't wait to see what else he does next.

02:27And now this is the party that kicks off awards season.

02:30Who from the Barbie crew do you think is going to party the hardest tonight?

02:33I would have said Simu because, but he like has a torn Achilles.

02:39So I don't think he's going to be able to party that hard.

02:43So I guess next on the list, I hope it's Greta.

02:46Greta had a great year.

02:48But, you know, she's a mom of two like young kids.

02:52So I don't know.

02:54It's going to be me.

02:55I volunteered myself.

02:56I'm going to party the hardest.

02:58I'll take the baton.

02:59I'm going to party the hardest.
