No but seriously, the 2026 Golden Globes were basically Hollywood’s version of a bar mitzvah. The Beverly Hilton ballroom was packed with A-listers, but the real drama wasn’t on TV—it was in the champagne-soaked air, the side-eye thrown at George Clooney, and the way Timothée Chalamet laughed like he’d just been handed a lifetime supply of free snacks. Nikki Glaser hosted like she was giving a sermon, and Chalamet? He was front-row VIP, sipping Moët and snorting jokes at Glaser’s digs. (Spoiler: His laugh sounded like he’d just chugged a liter of Nespresso.)

The Moët & Chandon was everywhere, from the red carpet to the bar, and it was basically the unofficial drink of the night. Guests got mini bottles as they stepped off the carpet, handed out by red-suited models who probably had a side hustle as casting directors for Heated Rivalry Season 2. The enclosed step-and-repeat turned into a sauna, and Ryan Destiny was basically a human thermometer, complaining about how heavy her ballgown felt. But hey, if you’re wearing a sequin dress and sweating like a pig, you’re doing it right.

Charity toasting was the real MVP of the night. Hudson Williams, who’s basically the most sought-after human in the room, donated to BC Children’s Hospital via Moët’s Toast for a Cause initiative. Over 30 celebs joined in, slugging down bubbly and sending $30k to good causes. The drinking didn’t stop once the ceremony started—some people popped full Moët bottles before the first award even aired. Jihyo, the K-pop star, called it “a real celebration” to cheer with “special people,” and honestly, who’s judging?

The crowd had clear favorites: Sinners got roaring applause every time their name was mentioned, and Amy Poehler’s podcast win had the room buzzing. The White Lotus crew turned into the unofficial cheer squad, clapping like they were at a sports game. Winners got extra props from the cast, and Parker Posey basically became the human version of a confetti cannon. Meanwhile, the music was 2005 throwback energy, and Posey was out there dancing to “Drop It Like It’s Hot” like she was at a rave.

💫 The night ended with Zhao’s emotional speech for Hamnet and a bunch of people scrolling X to see how they looked.

By the end, everyone was looser than a yoga instructor on a Monday. Emma Stone and Jennifer Lawrence escaped to the back bar to talk Miss Piggy (or maybe just gossip), while Chalamet and Jenner hosted a table of admirers, including Elle Fanning and Jennifer Lopez. The night ended with Zhao’s emotional speech for Hamnet and a bunch of people scrolling X to see how they looked. But honestly, if you’re at a party where people are smoking joints and doing the Hora, you’re doing it right.
