Ricky Gervais Wins First Best Stand-Up Golden Globe, Doesn't Show Up
Ricky Gervais makes history at the Golden Globes as the first comedian to receive an award for stand-up comedy, but doesn’t show up to claim his trophy.
In a surprising turn of events, British comedian Ricky Gervais made history at the 2024 Golden Globes by winning the first-ever award for Best Performance in Stand-up Comedy on Television for his Netflix special Armageddon. However, the notoriously outspoken star decided to skip the awards ceremony entirely, refusing to accept the accolade in person.
Following the announcement of his win, Gervais took to Twitter to express his gratitude to his fans for their unwavering support.
Gervais’ Golden Globe win and subsequent snub of the ceremony further cemented his position as a comedian who marches to the beat of his own drum, undeterred by the expectations and conventions of the entertainment industry.
