==Ceremony==
The broadcast of the Golden Globe Awards, [[telecast]] to more than 150 countries worldwide, generally ranks as the third most-watched awards show each year, behind only the [[Academy Award|Oscars]] and the [[Grammy Award]]s. Unlike the Oscars, the Grammys and the [[Emmy Award]]s, the Golden Globe Awards is one of two major [[Hollywood, Los Angeles, California|Hollywood]] awards ceremonies, the other being the [[Screen Actors Guild Awards]], that does not have a regular host; there is a different presenter every year, who introduces the ceremony at the beginning of the broadcast.


==History==
best friends
The first Golden Globe Awards were held in 1944, at the [[20th Century Fox]] studios. It has since been held annually, at various locations. Throughout the next decade, it was held at the [[the Beverly Hills Hotel]], and the [[Roosevelt Hotel (Hollywood)|Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel]].


in 1950 the Hollywood Foreign Press Association made the decision to establish a special award that recognizes outstanding contributions to the entertainment industry. To give importance to the award and recognize its subject as an international figure in the entertainment industry, the initial award was presented to director and producer [[Cecil B. DeMille]]. The official name of the award thus became the [[Golden Globe Cecil B. DeMille Award|Cecil B. DeMille Award]].

In 1963 the [[Miss Golden Globe]] concept was introduced. In its inaugural year there were two Miss Golden Globes, one for film and one for television. They were respectively, Eva Six of [[Beach Party]] and [[Operation Bikini]], and [[Donna Douglas]].

In 1964, national telecast was distributed through a special segment on ''[[The Andy Williams Show]]''.


Recognizing the impact that animated films have had on the industry, in 2006, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced that a Golden Globe would be awarded for the [[Golden Globe Award for Best Animated Feature Film|Best Animated Feature]] at the [[64th Golden Globe Awards|64th Annual Golden Globe Awards]].<ref>{{cite web| url =http://www.animationmagazine.net/article.php?article_id=4980# |author = Ball, Ryan | title = Golden Globes in Toon for '07 |work = www.animationmagazine.net|publisher = Animation Magazine| date = 2006-01-30 | accessdate = 2006-06-13}}</ref>


The awards show income has enabled the Hollywood Foreign Press Association to donate millions of dollars to entertainment-related charities, as well as funding scholarships and other programs for future film and television professionals.


===2008 disruption===
On January 7, 2008, it was announced that due to the [[2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike]], the [[65th Golden Globe Awards]] would not be telecast live. The ceremony was faced with a threat by striking writers to picket the event and by actors, threatening to boycott the ceremony, rather than cross picket lines. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association was forced to adopt another approach for the broadcast.


[[NBC]] originally had exclusive broadcast rights to the ceremonies, but on January 11, HFPA President Jorge Camara announced there would be no restrictions placed on media outlets covering the January 13 press conference, announcing the winners at 6:00pm PST.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.goldenglobes.org/news/id/86|title= HFPA News|accessdate=2008-11-02 |work= www.goldenglobes.org|publisher= HFPA|date= 2008-01-08}}</ref> As a result, [[E!]], [[CNN]], the [[TV Guide Network]] and [[KNBC|KNBC-TV]], the network's [[Los Angeles]] affiliate, aired the 31-minute event, emanating from the Grand Ballroom of the Beverly Hilton Hotel live, leaving NBC to fill the hour from 9:00–10:00pm ET with announcements, made after-the-fact by ''[[Access Hollywood]]'' hosts [[Billy Bush]] and [[Nancy O'Dell]].<ref name="CTribune">{{cite web |url= http://featuresblogs.chicagotribune.com/entertainment_tv/2008/01/golden-globes.html|title= Golden Globes winners?

Ceremony

The broadcast of the Golden Globe Awards, telecast to more than 150 countries worldwide, generally ranks as the third most-watched awards show each year, behind only the Oscars and the Grammy Awards. Unlike the Oscars, the Grammys and the Emmy Awards, the Golden Globe Awards is one of two major Hollywood awards ceremonies, the other being the Screen Actors Guild Awards, that does not have a regular host; there is a different presenter every year, who introduces the ceremony at the beginning of the broadcast.

History

The first Golden Globe Awards were held in 1944, at the 20th Century Fox studios. It has since been held annually, at various locations. Throughout the next decade, it was held at the the Beverly Hills Hotel, and the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel.

in 1950 the Hollywood Foreign Press Association made the decision to establish a special award that recognizes outstanding contributions to the entertainment industry. To give importance to the award and recognize its subject as an international figure in the entertainment industry, the initial award was presented to director and producer Cecil B. DeMille. The official name of the award thus became the Cecil B. DeMille Award.

In 1963 the Miss Golden Globe concept was introduced. In its inaugural year there were two Miss Golden Globes, one for film and one for television. They were respectively, Eva Six of Beach Party and Operation Bikini, and Donna Douglas.

In 1964, national telecast was distributed through a special segment on The Andy Williams Show.

Recognizing the impact that animated films have had on the industry, in 2006, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced that a Golden Globe would be awarded for the Best Animated Feature at the 64th Annual Golden Globe Awards.[6]

The awards show income has enabled the Hollywood Foreign Press Association to donate millions of dollars to entertainment-related charities, as well as funding scholarships and other programs for future film and television professionals.

2008 disruption

On January 7, 2008, it was announced that due to the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike, the 65th Golden Globe Awards would not be telecast live. The ceremony was faced with a threat by striking writers to picket the event and by actors, threatening to boycott the ceremony, rather than cross picket lines. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association was forced to adopt another approach for the broadcast.

NBC originally had exclusive broadcast rights to the ceremonies, but on January 11, HFPA President Jorge Camara announced there would be no restrictions placed on media outlets covering the January 13 press conference, announcing the winners at 6:00pm PST.[7] As a result, E!, CNN, the TV Guide Network and KNBC-TV, the network's Los Angeles affiliate, aired the 31-minute event, emanating from the Grand Ballroom of the Beverly Hilton Hotel live, leaving NBC to fill the hour from 9:00–10:00pm ET with announcements, made after-the-fact by Access Hollywood hosts Billy Bush and Nancy O'Dell.[8] The remaining hours of programming, set aside for the ceremonies by the network, were filled with a special two-hour edition of Dateline, hosted by Matt Lauer, that included film clips, interviews with some of the nominees and commentary from comedienne Kathy Griffin and the panelists from Football Night in America.

Controversy

Pia Zadora won a Golden Globe in 1981 in the category "Newcomer-of-the-Year" for her performance in Butterfly.[10] There were accusations that the Foreign Press Association members had been bought off.[11] Pia's husband, multimillionaire Meshulam Riklis flew voting members to his casino, the Riviera Hotel in Las Vegas, which gives the appearance that they voted for Zadora to repay this. Riklis also invited voting members to his house for a lavish lunch, and a showing of the film. He also spent lavishly on advertising.[12]

Additionally the film had not been released at the time of the awards,[13] which should have made her ineligible for an award.[14]
