Greta Gerwig Responds to Jo Koy's 'Barbie' Joke at the Golden Globes


The 'Barbie' director had an interesting response to the Golden Globes host's comments about her movie.

During a recent appearance on BBC Radio 4's Today, the Barbie director, 40, was asked about the stand-up comedian's jab at her record-breaking box office hit and had a refreshing take. While opening up the awards show on Sunday, Koy, 52, compared the Mattel doll-inspired film to its July 20 release counterpart, saying: " Oppenheimer is based on a 721-page Pulitzer Prize-winning book about the Manhattan Project, and Barbie is on a plastic doll with big boobies." The Easter Sunday star also made a joke at the expense of Taylor Swift, making light of the amount of air time the 34-year-old singer has received recently at NFL games.
