'I'll tell you why I'm here. I'm here 'cause I'm Black.' Taking the stage at the 80th Golden Globe Awards Tuesday night, host and comedian Jerrod Carmichael took the elephant in the room head on, skewering the scandal-ridden awards show.
Despite being reassured by Golden Globes producer Stephen Hill that he was selected as host for his talent, charm and status as"one of the greatest comedians of a generation," Carmichael said he turned to the advice of his"homegirl Avery, who for the sake of this monologue, represents every Black person in America."
"I told her about how last didn't air because of the no-Black-people thing. And she was like, 'Well, how much are they paying you?' … And I said $500,000," Carmichael said."And she said, 'Boy, if you don't put on a good suit and take them white people's money.'" Controversy aside, Carmichael maintained he was uninterested in any diversity changes made by the HFPA,Why comedians like Jerrod Carmichael make intimate comedy specials
"I heard they got six new Black members, congrats to them, whatever. … But it's not why I'm here," Carmichael said."I look out into this room and I see a lot of talented people, people that I admire, people that I would like to be like, people that I'm jealous of, and people that are actually really incredible artists.
"And regardless of whatever the Hollywood Foreign Press Association's past may be, this is an evening where we get to celebrate, and I think this industry deserves evenings like these. And I'm happy you all are here."
