Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig Make an Impromptu 'Barbie' Acceptance Speech After Chelsea Handler 'Goes Rogue'

Handler decided to go 'rogue' to give some stage time to the creators of 'Barbie' at the 2024 Critics Choice Awards.

After coming back from a commercial break, Handler stated that Barbie had won Best Comedy, but explained that, for whatever reason, that particular category was among the handful that were announced but not given actual airtime. "Earlier tonight, Barbie was awarded Best Comedy, but it wasn't on stage, so I'm gonna go rogue, because I feel Greta [Gerwig] and Margot [Robbie] deserve the opportunity to make an acceptance speech," Handler said, surprising both celebs. She also thanked Mattel for "for letting us take their beloved icon and make something so unhinged," and praised her husband and co-writer Noah Baumbach.
