📝 About Golden Globe Awards 2026
The Golden Globe Awards honor the best in both film and American television, uniquely splitting film categories into Drama and Musical or Comedy — a distinction no other major award show makes. Founded in 1944 by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), the Globes were long considered the most reliable Oscar predictor and a glamorous kickoff to awards season. The ceremony is famous for its relaxed, alcohol-fueled banquet atmosphere, which has produced some of the most entertaining and unscripted moments in awards history. However, the HFPA faced a major credibility crisis in 2021 when a Los Angeles Times investigation revealed the organization had zero Black members among its roughly 90 journalists, leading NBC to drop the 2022 telecast entirely. The organization subsequently undertook sweeping reforms, expanding its voting body, adding non-journalist members, and implementing new ethical guidelines. The Globes returned to broadcast in 2023 under new ownership by Eldridge Industries and Dick Clark Productions, seeking to rebuild their reputation as a premier Hollywood celebration.
