It's relatively par-for-the-course that people are canceled these days. Celebrities — faves and non-faves — make a comment or decision that is controversial, offensive, or seriously out-of-touch, and people react; often swiftly, and often overwhelmingly, to let said person know that whatever comment or action is not OK. But rarely is there an awards show that's canceled in the same way — that is until the 2022 Golden Globes. ⁠ ⁠ In late 2021, the annual awards show — which kicks off awards season and is seen as an indicator for the Oscars — was embroiled in scandal. A Los Angeles Times article found the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), the governing body for the Globes, had a serious diversity problem among its members — there were zero Black voting members. Another exposé, also from the LA Times, also reignited longstanding conversations and questions about voting practices, and in May 2021, NBC announced they wouldn't be airing the awards show in 2022, with the HFPA instead opting for a smaller fête at The Beverly Hilton Hotel.⁠ ⁠ Just over a year later, and after many reported changes within the HFPA's org, the Golden Globes are back on our screens tonight, and it's safe to say all eyes are going to be not only on the celebs strutting down the red carpet, but on the HFPA as a whole. ⁠ ⁠ Find everything you need to know about the Globes scandal and where people stand on the awards show today at the 🔗 in bio. Spoiler alert: It's still pretty complicated. ✍️ @katherineesingh 📷 Emma McIntyre / Getty Images for Hollywood Foreign Press Association #goldenglobes #goldenglobes2023
