While hosting the 2020 Golden Globes, Ricky Gervais told the potential award winners to steer clear of politics. Wisely pointing out that their celebrity status doesn't give them any more knowledge or insight than anyone else.
“I mean, the companies that you work for, Apple, Amazon, Disney…if ISIS started a streaming service, you would call your agents, wouldn't you?” he said. "So if you do win an award tonight, don’t use it as a platform to give a political speech. You’re in no place to lecture the public about anything. You know nothing about the real world. Most of you spent less time in school than Greta Thunberg. So, if you win, come up, accept your little award, thank your agent and your God, and f*** off.”
