Nikki Glaser hosts the 2025 Golden GlobesWho is hosting the 2025 Golden Globes?
As mentioned above, comedian Nikki Glaser is hosting this year's ceremony. Aside from being the first woman in the show's history to host solo, it's also a personal first for Glaser, who — despite plenty of experience as a TV host — has never fronted an awards show before. "I want to be sincere about how I’m feeling that night," Glaser told Entertainment Weekly ahead of the ceremony. "I am a fangirl. I am excited to be there. I don’t want anything to be phoned in. I don’t want anything to seem rehearsed. I really want to represent the people watching at home, so I want it to feel conversational. I want people to feel like, ‘Whoa, that’s maybe how I would do it.’ I’m still a girl from St. Louis who can’t believe she made it this far and gets to be around all these people she admires so much, so I’m going to try to inject as much of that as possible."
