After delivering a scorching opening monologue at the Golden Globes on Sunday, Ricky Gervais rounded out the ceremony by laying into the room of Hollywood insiders for their complicity in the Harvey Weinstein scandal.
Bringing Sandra Bullock on stage to announce the final award, Gervais said, “Our next presenter starred in Netflix’s ‘Bird Box,’ a movie where people survive by acting like they don’t see a thing. Sort of like working for Harvey Weinstein.”
After the crowd erupted in boos, Gervais replied, “You did it! I didn’t, you did it!”

I loved Afterlife. I’m glad Ricky is not a Moon bat.
I love when that happens.
Gervais lectured the entertainment industry elites who sanctimoniously lecture everyone else — and they didn’t like it. The irony is sweet.
I’m left to wonder if something bigger is going on here. I find it hard to believe that Gervais just decided to rip these people with no backing, effectively committing professional suicide. Unless...
The Hollywood powers are beginning to take notice that the left is more and more unhinged. That people like Elizabeth Warren would do more harm than good. That President Trump is very likely going to be president until 2024. So, whether they agree with what Gervais said or not, they gave him the green light in an effort to give the appearance of pulling back.
It’s all about making money.
The Donald can be credited for encouraging people to expose liberal pretensions.
And they say that the Donald should tweet less.
It was amazing to see, he said they shouldn't lecture anyone because they have less education than Greta Thornberg - LOL. I wanted to slap the puss off the face of the actor who played Forrest Gump.
It’s all about making money.

Hollywood’s dirty little secret. Spouting off about their causes and politics is a convenient smokescreen that hides what they really care about.
Was that a glass of beer in front of him. It looked like it had a head on it?
Loved it, he was shredding people lol. He kept saying, “my FIFTH time, you people keep having me back, I don’t care, it’s my last time, I do not care.”
Everyone involved knows and expects him to do this. At something like the Oscars, no, but at the globes, where he kept walking out on stage with a beer in his hand, yep.
Thing is, none of it would be funny if it weren’t true. It’s funny because it’s true! That is what they all hate.
Netflix’s ‘Bird Box,’ a movie where people survive by acting like they don’t see a thing.
That covers every liberal,media and democrats top the list.
He’s an atheist, who hates Trump. But credit where it’s due, in this case.
He’s been doing it for 5 years in a row. His twitter is worse. Professional suicide doesn’t matter when you’re big enough and rich enough to produce your own content.
I have written off Hollywood. I wish everyone would. Kind of makes you miss the good ole’ House Un-American Committee, doesn’t it?
