Backstage with the biggest names from awards season’s weirdest night.
Photo: Lucas Michael Photo: Lucas MichaelIs there an awards show that benefits more from photo evidence than the Golden Globes? The first major awards stop of the season is famous for a few things: celebrity glamor, celebrity drunkenness, and behind-the-scenes drama. After being called out in 2021 for having zero Black members and then doing little to fix it, the 2022 show was booted from TV and forced to announce winners on Twitter. The show moved back to NBC in 2023, then received abysmal ratings and was canceled again. Now the Globes are back with new owners (Eldridge Industries and Dick Clark Productions), a new voting body (ta-ta, HFPA), and a new home (CBS).
Not wanting to miss the newly constituted fun, we sent photographer Lucas Michael to capture all the Barbies, Roy kids, Oppenheimer-ati, and various chefs as they milled about in various stages of victory and/or celebration.
