Jo Koy’s contentious Golden Globes speech continues to be questioned by celebrities, including his former partner Chelsea Handler.
During the Critics Choice Awards on Sunday, the 48-year-old comedian made a clear jab at Jo’s well-known speech, which caused criticism for being perceived as “sexist.”
Robert De Niro and Harrison Ford saw Chelsea when she first started her career.
“I can’t decide who is hotter; both of you are amazing smoke shows.” I would throw Martin Scorsese around like a little Italian meatball, and even if he’s not here tonight, it won’t stop me from telling everyone in this room,” she remarked.
As the audience chuckled, Chelsea said, “Thank you for laughing at that. It was written by my writers. The audience, most of whom had also attended the Golden Globes the previous week, continued to clap for her after that.
It seems that her jab was directed at Jo’s defense of his quip that Barbie was “a film about plastic dolls with big bs.”
On stage, he exclaimed, “Yo, I got the gig 10 days ago.” Do you desire the ideal monologue? Hey, stop talking. Decelerate. He had told the crowd, who scowled at his jibe, “I wrote some of these, and they’re the ones you’re laughing at.”
