Ricky Gervais has offered up some of the jokes he would have made if he were hosting this weekend’s Golden Globe Awards.The British comic presented the ceremony at total of five times – in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2016 and 2020 – earning a reputation as a fearless and controversial compere who made piercing quips against the A-lists in attendance.This year’s show takes place on Sunday night (January 5), with comedian Nikki Glaser set to fill the presenting role, the first female host in the 82-year history of the Globes.That hasn’t stopped Gervais from speculating about what he might have said from the stage given the opportunity, however.
