Jimmy Fallon, late-night talk show entertainer, hosts the 74th Annual Golden Globe Awards, which airs on RTL CBS Entertainment, live from the U.S. at 8 a.m. on Monday.
January’s three-hour Golden Globes telecast will serve as the official kick-off to the 2017 awards season.
“Jimmy Fallon is an exceptionally talented and dynamic entertainer and we couldn’t be more excited that he’ll be hosting the 2017 Golden Globes,” said Lorenzo Soria, Hollywood Foreign Press Association president. “His charm, wit and incredible spontaneity will play exceedingly well both to everyone at the show as well as the millions watching at home from around the world.”
“Jimmy Fallon’s brand of comedy will continue the tradition of cutting-edge excitement viewers have come to expect from the host of the Golden Globes,” said Allen Shapiro, Dick Clark Productions CEO.
Nominations for the Golden Globes were announced on Dec. 12. Members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association vote for the winners.
