Kristen Bell reveals Dax Shepard watching football during the Golden Globes: 'Priorities'

Dax Shepard is always ready for some football, even while attending one of Hollywood's biggest events of the year.

In an Instagram story, Kristen Bell shared a video taken from inside Sunday's Golden Globe Awards, which showed that her husband was watching football on his phone in the middle of the ceremony.

The clip started out with Bell filming the Golden Globes stage while seated behind presenters Harrison Ford and Anthony Mackie, who were giving out the award for best animated film.

But while Ford and Mackie spoke, Bell panned over to show that Shepard had his head down and was focused on watching Sunday's game between the Detroit Lions and the Minnesota Vikings. The "Armchair Expert" podcast host had the game streaming on his phone, which was placed between his legs.

"#Priorities," Bell wrote on top of the clip.

The two were seated so close to the stage that Shepard could be seen looking down at his lap on the Golden Globes telecast while Ford and Mackie were presenting. The Detroit Lions ultimately defeated the Minnesota Vikings during Sunday's game.

Shepard accompanied Bell to the Golden Globes, where she was nominated for best actress in a comedy series for her Netflix show "Nobody Wants This." Her co-star Adam Brody, who attended the ceremony with wife Leighton Meester, was also nominated for best actor in a comedy series, and the show competed for best comedy series. "Nobody Wants This" did not end up winning any Golden Globes, with Bell losing her award to Jean Smart from "Hacks," best actor in a comedy series going to Jeremy Allen White from "The Bear," and best comedy series being awarded to "Hacks."

Shepard isn't the only star whose love of sports has conflicted with their awards show attendance.

Last year, "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" star Rob McElhenney, a huge fan of the Philadelphia Eagles, posted a photo of himself watching a game between the Eagles and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers while in the audience at the Emmy Awards.

"Who schedules the Emmys the same night as the @eagles #gobirds #FlyEaglesFly," McElhenney wrote on X.
