Golden Globes 2015 winners, highlights, acceptance speeches

THE red carpet has wrapped and the 72nd Golden Globe Awards are officially underway.

Honouring the best in film and television of 2014, this year’s awards show went off a bang, with comic duo Tina Fey and Amy Poehler hosting for the third and final time. The pair touched a nerve with one joke in particular, skewering Bill Cosby during their opening monologue.

They also poked fun at Angelina Jolie and the Sony hacking scandal, calling the audience “a bunch of minimally talented spoiled brats” and played a game of ‘Would You Rather’ with the crowd.

Outside the Beverly Hilton Hotel, Hollywood’s biggest stars hit the ruby rug dressed to the nines in their finest frocks. The usually sunny Los Angeles was hit with some serious showers yesterday, with organisers bracing themselves for the possibility of more rain today.

Stay tuned for all of the winners, acceptance speeches and highlights from this year’s Golden Globes.
