It’s showtime!
Jimmy Fallon has kicked off the 2017 Golden Globes and he didn’t hold back in poking fun at President-elect Donald Trump , among others, in his opening monologue.
First, the teleprompter went down, to which Fallon joked, \u00ab\u00a0I can do impressions, what do we do here!? … Already you have your Golden Globes moment. \u00ab\u00a0
Then he got right into joking about the 2016 presidential election. He said the Globes were an event \u00ab\u00a0where America still honors the popular vote,\u00a0\u00bb alluding to the fact Hillary Clinton won the popular vote, but lost the election in the Electoral College to Trump.
Next, he spoke about \u00ab\u00a0Game of Thrones\u00a0\u00bb and its notorious villain King Joffrey.
He said fans were wondering \u00ab\u00a0what it would have been like if King Joffrey had lived … well in 12 days we’ll find out,\u00a0\u00bb he said about Trump’s inauguration.
The election jokes also included a nod to Meryl Streep ‘s \u00ab\u00a0Florence Foster Jenkins,\u00a0\u00bb joking even she wouldn’t perform at Trump’s inauguration and that the Globes’ winners were tabulated as always by the accounting firm of \u00ab\u00a0Ernst & Young & Putin. \u00ab\u00a0
Others in the room were not off limits either. Fallon called out Matt Damon , saying his best acting job this year was telling buddy Ben Affleck he was good in \u00ab\u00a0Batman V Superman. \u00ab\u00a0
He also said no matter what tonight, \u00ab\u00a0No one is gonna thank O. J. [Simpson.]\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n
