Comedian and actor Jo Koy hosted the 2024 Golden Globes last night (January 7), and his joke about Taylor Swift, but more so her reaction to it, is making headlines.

What did Jo Koy say about Taylor Swift at the 2024 Golden Globes?

At one point during the show, Koy said, “As you know, we came on after a football doubleheader. The big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL: On the Golden Globes, we have fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift, I swear.”

There was some light, scattered laughter from the audience as the broadcast cut to a shot of Taylor Swift. She was either truly not amused or giving a Globe-worthy acting performance, sporting a stern, glaring expression and taking a sip of her drink.

Swift recently addressed backlash from NFL fans over the extensive media coverage of her presence at games, saying in a December interview, “I’m just there to support Travis. I have no awareness of if I’m being shown too much and pissing off a few dads, Brads, and Chads.”

Koy himself acknowledged that his jokes weren’t necessarily all landing, telling the audience at one point, “I got the gig 10 days ago! You want a perfect monologue?” Indeed, Koy was a last-minute hire for the show and had less than two weeks to prepare.

Swift, meanwhile, was part of another viral moment from the evening, although it didn’t happen on stage: Videos from the event show Selena Gomez telling Swift and Keleigh Teller something that got animated reactions, which some believe to be about Kylie Jenner refusing to let her take a photo with Timothée Chalamet.

A new Ariana Grande era is finally upon us: After much speculation, Grande has finally announced that her next single is called “Yes, And?” and it’s set to drop this Friday, January 12.

There has also been some belief that the song title is also the name of Grande’s upcoming album, but is that really the case?

Is Ariana Grande’s new album title Yes, And?

It is not, no.

On Instagram yesterday (January 7), Grande shared a blurry image of herself and wrote, “yes, and? [heart] 1.12.” She also shared a pre-save/pre-order link. Then, in an Instagram Story posted this morning, Grande re-shared her post and wrote, “p.s. i couldn’t wait any longer to tell you that although this is not the album title, it is indeed the album cover (well. ….one of them!).”

So, at the moment, we do not know the title of Grande’s upcoming seventh album, but we do know what one of the album covers looks like (presumably, there will be multiple editions of the album, based on Grande’s phrasing).

Before last year ended, Grande looked back on her 2023, writing, “one of the most transformative, most challenging, and yet happiest and most special years of my life. there were so many beautiful and yet polarized feelings.”

One of the more memorable celebrity pairings at the 2024 Golden Globes happened before the ceremony even started. During an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Brie Larson spotted Jennifer Lopez walking the red carpet. “Oh my god, I’m gonna cry. I can’t deal with J-Lo,” The Marvels actress said while pretending to hyperventilate. Or maybe it wasn’t pretend: Larson looked genuinely overwhelmed when the Queen of Dunkin approached her.

“You mean so much to me,” Larson told Lopez, who gave her a hug and said she was a fan, too. Larson told her that she “saw Selena and it made me want to be an actor, and you’ve always meant so much to me. It’s been a dream of mine, so thank you so much. Your work ethic is so important.” They held hands before hugging again. You can watch the sweet moment below.

Both Larson and Lopez have been nominated for Golden Globes (Larson won Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Drama for Room; Lopez was nominated for Best Actress – Motion Picture Comedy or Musical for Selena), but they have something else in common: musical careers. Lopez’s is more successful, of course, including four number one singles on the Hot 100. But don’t overlook “Finally Out Of P.E.”

The 2024 Golden Globes went down last night (January 7), and for some, the highlight of the evening wasn’t something that happened on stage. Rather, there was a Selena Gomez moment that has the internet talking.

What did Selena Gomez say about Timothée Chalamet at the 2024 Golden Globes?

Videos from the event (seen here and here) show Gomez telling Taylor Swift and Keleigh Teller something that leaves them with shocked reactions on their faces. It’s tough to make out exactly what was said, but there has been speculation. Per Just Jared, Gomez supposedly told the two, “I asked for a picture with him and she said no.” Teller supposedly replied, “With Timothee?” Gomez then nodded in confirmation.

The “she” in this case is believe to be Kylie Jenner. The above is just interpretation/speculation, though, and nobody involved has publicly said anything about it.

Gomez and Chalamet have worked together before, as they both starred in the 2019 movie A Rainy Day In New York. Meanwhile, Gomez and Jenner were previously involved in some supposed beef over Hailey Bieber. Jenner said at the time, though, “This is reaching. No shade towards Selena ever, and I didn’t see her eyebrow posts! u guys are making something out of nothing. this is silly.”

Those who pay attention to Bill Hader’s love life (and Rachel Bilson famously gave people a very big reason, which allegedly is his dong, to pay attention to it) were not surprised to see him kissing Ali Wong at the Golden Globes. The mutually funny pair have been dating since at least last April, which is when they were first caught canoodling together in public.

Wong was later quoted as being shocked that anyone cared about their canoodling, but again, she can probably credit Rachel Bilson for the intrigue. Heck, Extra even asked Wong about the awards-show kiss, which took place after Wong was announced as the winner of Best Actress In A Limited Series, Anthology Series, Or Made For TV Movie award.

Cue the “wait, what?” reaction to this video clip:

Hey, Wong admitted to being seriously stressed out by the process of filming Beef, so I am happy that she’s with someone who makes everyone laugh, and that hopefully includes her on a regular basis. Still, let the surprised (and themed with SNL‘s Stefon) reactions begin:

A few (dozen) people did already know, however, and they are congratulating those who are normal enough not to have known:

By the way, here’s that video of Wong being asked by Extra about the kiss, and she (of course) laughed in response.

The Atlanta Falcons will join the soon-to-grow list of teams that will be searching for a new head coach this offseason. Atlanta capped off a wildly frustrating season in which they went 7-10 despite arguably the easiest schedule in football with a 48-17 blowout loss to the rival New Orleans Saints in which they allowed 31 unanswered points in the second half and the offense imploded on itself (as it has far too many times this season). The game ended with Smith cussing out Saints head coach Dennis Allen for running the score up late — something that ended up being a rogue call by Jameis Winston and the Saints offense.

The team did not waste any time making a decision on Smith, as word broke at 12:02 a.m. ET on Monday that the Falcons were firing their head coach after three seasons at the helm — winning just seven games in all of them.

Smith was brought in to figure out how to make the Falcons offense more dynamic, but after a promising year running the ball in 2022, they regressed in 2023 despite investing a third straight top-10 pick on a skill position player — running back Bijan Robinson. Falcons fans (and the greater fantasy football community) have been driven insane by Smith’s playcalling and player usage, as he routinely used the guys expected to be in starring roles as decoys, getting the ball to lesser known names. That would be fine if it worked, but the Falcons were 26th in the NFL in points per game this year, with serious issues finishing drives in plus territory and the red zone.

Firing Smith is just the start of what should be some major changes in Atlanta, as while he was the focal point of frustrations for many, he is far from the only one deserving blame. Atlanta had a clear deficit at the quarterback position coming into the year but publicly stated they had no interest in pursuing Lamar Jackson (who has gone on to have an MVP-type season in Baltimore) and rode with Desmond Ridder and Taylor Heinicke to rather miserable results. They did see serious defensive improvements, but that only served to highlight the offensive ineptitude and raised frustrations with this year’s performance. Now, one would expect a new head coach and a new quarterback to be the top priorities in Atlanta this offseason, with a bit of mystery about where they’ll go to fill each of those spots.

The Dolphins and Bills met in Miami in the final game of the NFL’s regular season with the AFC East title and the 2-seed in the conference on the line. Early on it looked like we were going to be headed for a rematch in the Wild Card round, as the Dolphins took a 14-7 lead and were running the ball seemingly at will in the first half, while the Bills kept squandering opportunities with untimely turnovers.

However, in the second half things flipped as the Buffalo defense woke up and put the clamps on Miami’s offense, Josh Allen started to make timely plays in the fourth quarter, and they got a huge play from their special teams on a 96-yard punt return touchdown from Deonte Harty.

After taking their first lead of the game at 21-14, Buffalo had a chance to ice the game on 4th and 1 in plus territory, but Allen got stuffed on a sneak attempt and the Dolphins took over with a chance to tie the game and force overtime.

Miami would move the ball across midfield, but their last gasp effort at extending the game ended on a rather dreadful Tua Tagovailoa interception as he overthrew Chase Claypool (one play after throwing high and getting Tyreek Hill hit hard, forcing him out of the game for the next play) and Taylor Rapp made a diving interception to ice the game.

The Bills defense putting the game on ice was fitting with how well they played in the second half, and now they will go back to Buffalo where they get to play host to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday afternoon at 1 p.m. ET on CBS. Miami, meanwhile, will have to play Saturday night at Kansas City where they’ll have to deal with 1 degree temperature and the defending champs on a Peacock exclusive game — the full Wild Card weekend schedule can be found here.

While the Dolphins and Bills were still battling it out for the AFC East crown and the 2-seed in the conference, the NFL released the full schedule for Wild Card weekend at halftime of the Buffalo-Miami battle since everything was set except for two matchups (and all 14 playoff teams were locked in).

Unsurprisingly, the Saturday afternoon game will be the Browns at Texans, as Houston has been in the leadoff spot on Wild Card weekend pretty much any year they’ve won the AFC South. The Saturday night game will be the Chiefs at home against either the Steelers or Dolphins in a Peacock exclusive, which you can bet will lead to some very unhappy fans when they realize they need to pay for NBC’s app to watch a playoff game — NBC spent all of Sunday night’s game plugging this, but it will still catch plenty of folks off guard.

Also coming as little surprise is FOX getting Packers-Cowboys in the midday slate, with the either Steelers-Bills or Bills-Dolphins going to CBS at 1 p.m. and Matthew Stafford’s return to Detroit earning the primetime placement on NBC. The Eagles traveling to Tampa will round out the weekend’s games on ESPN, with the full schedule available below.

Saturday, January 13
Browns at Texans, 4:30 p.m. ET (NBC)

TBD (Steelers OR Dolphins) at Chiefs, 8:15 p.m. ET (Peacock)

Sunday, January 14
Steelers at Bills OR Bills at Dolphins, 1:00 p.m. ET (CBS)

Packers at Cowboys, 4:30 p.m. ET (FOX)

Rams at Lions, 8:15 p.m. ET (NBC)

Monday, January 15
Eagles at Buccaneers, 8:15 p.m. ET (ESPN/ABC)

Taylor Swift attended the 2024 Golden Globes without the man who lets her bejeweled, Travis Kelce, whose playoff-bound Kansas City Chiefs played the Los Angeles Chargers earlier in the day. Swift looked like she wished she was there — or literally anywhere else — during Globes host Jo Koy’s monologue.

“We came on after a football doubleheader,” the comedian said. “The big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL… On the Golden Globes we have fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift.” This was Swift’s reaction:

Koy, whose monologue was met with light boos from the crowd, later said, “Yo, I got the gig 10 days ago. You want a perfect monologue? Yo, shut up. I wrote some of these, and those are the ones you’re gonna laugh at.”

Swift looked much happier later in the show, when Ayo Edebiri won Best Performance in a Television Series – Musical or Comedy for her performance in The Bear.

Swift’s Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour concert film is nominated for Oscars Cheer Moment, I mean, Cinematic and Box Office Achievement along with Barbie, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, John Wick: Chapter 4, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, Oppenheimer, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, and The Super Mario Bros. Movie.

You can find the full list of winners here.

The final game of the NFL regular season was a battle for the AFC East between the Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins. The winner would become the 2-seed in the AFC playoffs and host a playoff game next weekend, while the loser would drop to the 6 or 7-seed and go on the road.

While the Bills had some stress alleviated by Jacksonville’s loss earlier in the day that assured them at least a playoff berth, those were still significant stakes for Sunday night’s game and the two teams played a tense first half as you might expect. Miami would take the first lead of the game on a De’Vone Achane run, and it seemed like the Bills offense was stuck in the mud for much of the early going. They would finally get a little rhythm in the passing game, moving into the red zone on a deep ball from Josh Allen to Stefon Diggs, and then scored a touchdown on a wild play where an Allen pass ricocheted way up into the air off a defender’s helmet, falling into the arms of Trent Sherfield in the back of the end zone.

It was an incredible play by Sherfield to track the ball, haul it in, and keep his toes on the ground as he fell out the back of the end zone.

Given how tipped passes like that typically result in disaster for the offense, this was a rare time where things worked out for the team passing the ball, and it could end up being a very important play for their playoff seeding.
