“A Will Smith joke in 2023 is wack and corny. #GoldenGlobe,” a third posted.

Jerrod Carmichael slammed for Will Smith dig

She finished by saying: “Hang in there 15-year-old Sheryl Lee Ralph! You’re good!”

Known to be ‘edgy’
Traditionally the Golden Globes has been known as the edgier, boozy little brother of the more prestigious Academy Awards.

Oscars v Golden Globes
One significant distinction between the two award shows is that the Golden Globes also honor television, while the Oscars honor exclusively film.
The Golden Globe winners are chosen by a small group of 93 members of the HFPA, but the Oscar winners are chosen by roughly 60,000 industry professionals who are members of the AMPAS.
The Globes are also a bigger event than the Oscars, with food and beverages offered, whereas the Oscars typically only feature the awards ceremony with the remainder of the celebration taking place in the after-party.
Finally, in comparison to the Oscars, the Golden Globes have more categories.
What are the Golden Globes?
The Golden Globe Award is an accolade bestowed to a winner by 93 members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), which celebrates excellence in cinema and television in the United States and abroad.
The yearly ceremony and dinner, where the winners are revealed, are a big element of the awards.
In January 1944, the first Golden Globe Awards were presented, honoring the finest in cinema and television, including cast and crew.
