This was their second year hosting the the Golden Globe Awards and Tina Fey and Amy Poehler did not disappoint at all.
Commenting on the stars present at the event in huge numbers, at the start of the show, Tina Fey said "This year is legit. Then they began with listing big names, their films and TV series at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles. Sample some zingers from the event:
"Bradley Cooper is here..star of 'American Hustle,'" Fey said before giving an "interesting bit of trivia," -- that the original title of the film was "Explosion at the Wig Factory."
Martin Scorcese was on the receiving end of a couple of opening jokes -- one of which involved Woody Allen receiving the Cecil B. Demille Lifetime Achievement honor. Poehler pointed out how Scorcese had won the honor before, saying, "I assume the award is for tiniest man with the goofiest glasses."
"We'll get this show done in three hours, or as Martin Scorsese calls it, Act One!"
"Matt on any other night you'd be a big deal… but tonight, you're basically a garbage person," Poehler said to nominee Matt Damon, comparing him to the other major stars in the room.
They commented on Matthew McConaughey for shedding 40 pounds for his role in "Dallas Buyers Club." Fey joked that losing weight is just par for the course in Hollywood; it's what actresses call "being in a movie."
The gals also called out George Clooney's dating history, saying how "Gravity" was the story of how he "would rather float away into space and die then spend one more minute with a woman his own age."
Poehler said: "If I wanted to see Jonah Hill masturbate at a pool party, I'd go to one of Jonah Hill's pool parties."
"This is Hollywood. If something kind of works, they'll just keep doing it until everyone hates it," quipped Fey, on her and Poehler being invited back to host again.
Poehler said: "Netflix...you're not going to feel so smug in a couple of years when Snapchat is up here accepting best drama."
