Oscars 2021: Ricky Gervais jokes about not being invited to the awards with a throwback of his Hollywood roast

Golden Globes.Yesterday (May 10), NBC announced they would not be airing next year’s ceremony to encourage the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, who hosts the awards, to work on “meaningful reform”.One fan tweeted Gervais following the news, as the After Life star has hosted the ceremony five times in the past.“Instead of golden globes 2022 can we do a 1-hour @rickygervais special roasting the Hollywood elite,” Andrew V Pestano tweeted, to which Gervais replied: “The Golden Balls.”The Golden

Ricky Gervais – who has become almost synonymous with the Golden Globes after hosting it five times – has responded to news that the 2022 ceremony has been pulled by NBC. The awards broadcast was axed in the wake of criticism of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), the organisation behind the Globes, for its lack of diversity.

Ricky Gervais is speaking out amid the Golden Globes scandal. The 59-year-old comedian has become all-but-synonymous with the annual award show, which honors the best in film and television each year, having hosted a record five times.

Ricky Gervais has announced that he will host a new paid-for podcast called Absolutely Mental.The 11-part podcast will be available on AbsolutelyMental.com from May 10, and will feature the comedian in conversation with his friend, neuroscientist Sam Harris.“These aren’t academic lectures. They are casual chats about how it feels to be human,” Gervais told Deadline.

Ricky Gervais thinks he was a little too edgy to have been invited to the 2021 Oscars.

Oscars was because of his controversial speech made last year’s Golden Globes awards.The comedian and actor has presented the Globes ceremony on five occasions, making headlines for several jokes deemed too inappropriate for some attendees and viewers.He’s never been asked to front the Academy Awards despite saying he would love to do it (“it would be carnage“), and reiterated that snub yesterday (April 26) ahead of the 2021 ceremony, writing: “It’s The Oscars tonight! I wasn’t invited.

It won't be wrong to state that Youn Yuh Jung's scene-stealing act as David Yi's (Alan Kim) unconventional grandmother Soon Ja deserved not just an Oscar nomination but a win as well.

Academy Awards fulfilled many expectations but threw in a couple of surprise wins in an unusual ceremony on Sunday evening. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Oscars moved out of their usual venue, the Dolby Theatre, and were based out of Los Angeles’s Union Station instead.

Ricky Gervais brings the funny to everything he does, from onscreen performances to hosting the 2020 Golden Globes. Now, he is celebrating the 93rd Academy Awards in true fashion— by poking fun at being snubbed by it.
