It famously won three out of its seven nominations at the 2022 Emmy Awards.
The 2023 awards marks a return to air for the embattled Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HPFA) since it overhauled its organization following a racism row in 2021.
The HFPA scandal erupted in 2021 when it emerged there were no black members among the 87-person association.
Tina Fey and Amy Poehler called out the association live during their 2021 opening monologue in February of that year.
‘The Hollywood Foreign Press Association is made up of around 90 international no black journalists who attend movie junkets each year in search of a better life.
Winner: Abbott Elementary won big during the 2023 ceremony, with the hit sitcom taking home three awards including Best Musical/Comedy Series. Quinta was named Best Actress in a Musical/Comedy Series, while her co-star Tyler James Williams walked away with the Best Supporting Actor prize
Presenters: Ana showcased her comedic chops as she presented the Best Supporting Actor and Actress in a Limited Series/ Anthony Or TV movie awards with Nicole Byer
‘We say around 90 because a couple of them might be ghosts,’ Fey said.
Stars threatened to boycott the awards and Tom Cruise, who had won three Globes in the past, vowed to return them all unless the association changed its ways.
In April, the association’s former president Phil Berk was fired for his resistance to BLM.
He sent an email to other members with a link to an article in which the organization was compared to cult murderer Charles Manson.

The article in Frontpagemag.com claimed BLM was trying to incite a ‘race war’.
The 2023 Globes will be hosted by black comedian Jerrod Carmichael. There are 27 awards up for grabs.
The Golden Globe Awards honor the best in film and American television as voted by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. They are also considered the unofficial kick-off to awards season which culminates with The Oscars on March 12.
Previously announced Golden Globe Award winner and six-time nominee Eddie Murphy received the 2023 Cecil B. DeMille Award.
Five-time Golden Globe Award winner and sixteen-time nominee Ryan Murphy received the Carol Burnett Award.
The Best Actress nominees included Ana de Armas for Blonde and Viola Davis for The Woman King, but Cate Blanchett won for her performance in Tár
Kevin Costner won big for his role as John Dutton in Yellowstone in the Best Actor in a TV series – Drama category
As the awards show has been accused of having a lack of diversity, perhaps the HFPA wanted to steer clear of controversy as Will Smith, 54, did not receive a nomination for film Emancipation months after his infamous slap of Chris Rock at The Oscars.
Meanwhile Jennifer Lawrence, 32, was also ignored for indie film Causeway.
Keke Palmer also did not earn a recognition for her transcendent performance in Jordan Peele’s horror/sci-fi flick Nope.
Julia Roberts and George Clooney also failed to be recognized for their romantic comedy Ticket To Paradise which earned an impressive $70million in the worldwide box office.
Hollywood had effectively boycotted the Globes. It used to be one of the most-watched award shows after the Academy Awards.
The Banshees of Inisherin starring Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson earned eight nominations and went on to win Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy, Best Screenplay – Motion Picture, Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy for Colin Farrell

NBC had reason to want to get the Globes back on the air.
In 2018, the network signed an eight-year deal to continue airing the awards through 2026.
Citing the HFPA’s ongoing reforms, NBC elected not to televise the previous Golden Globes in January. The organization went ahead announcing awards, anyway, in an untelevised and little-noticed gathering unattended by nominees.
This year´s ceremony, the organizations said, will be broadcast in a one-year agreement.
Terms were unavailable but the deal is expected to be less than the approximately $60 million the network previously paid annually to air the Globes. With backlash swirling and the ceremony scaled down because of the pandemic, the 2021 Globes were watched by 6.9 million people, according to Nielsen, down from more than 18 million the year before.
Whether NBC’s endorsement will be enough to return the Globes to Hollywood’s good graces, however, remains to be seen. Nominations for the Globes were announced on December 12.
The HFPA is currently being run by interim Chief Executive Todd Boehly, whose investment firm, Eldridge Industries, bought the Globes and turned it from a nonprofit into a for-profit venture.
Boehly’s firm is also the parent company of dick clark productions, the awards’ producer, and the owner of the Globes’ longtime home, the Beverly Hilton.
The 80th annual Golden Globe Awards will air on NBC and streaming service Peacock on Tuesday, January 10 at 8pm EST/5pm PST.
The last Globes was in 2021 when Amy Poehler and Tina Fey hosted a mostly virtual event. During their opening monologue, they slammed the HFPA for not having any black members
