Steve Martin Applauds Jo Koy Taking on 'Toughest Gig' as Golden Globes Host


Steve Martin weighed in on Jo Koy’s job as the 2024 Golden Globes host after he received criticism for his monologue

The Only Murders in the Building star added: “So, Congratulations to Jo Koy, who took on the toughest gig in show business, hit, missed, was light on his feet, and now has twenty minutes of new material for his stand up!” Koy left guests and viewers at home speechless when he poked fun at Barbie and seemed to completely miss the movie’s empowering message of female progression. I swear,” Koy said as the camera switched to Swift, 34, who has been continuously highlighted during Kansas City Chiefs games while cheering on boyfriend Travis Kelce.
