Greta Gerwig has taken the high road in response to Jo Koy’s ill-received 'Barbie' joke at the Golden Globes

Greta Gerwig has taken the high road in response to Jo Koy ’s ill-received Barbie joke at the Golden Globes. During the comedian’s widely panned and openly booed monologue, Koy joked about the Barbieheimer box office battle, noting that while Oppenheimer was “based on a 721-page Pulitzer Prize-winning book about the Manhattan Project,” Barbie was about “a plastic doll with big boobies.” While social media users, Swifties, and celebrities like Renee Rapp have blasted Koy over the monologue, Barbie director Gerwig chose not to pile on during an appearance on BBC Radio 4.
