81st Golden Globe Awards honored the best in film and television for 2023, as chosen by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA). The ceremony was broadcast live on CBS and streamed on Paramount+ from The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California. Hosted by stand-up comedian Jo Koy, the event marked a significant transition for the Golden Globe Awards under new ownership by Eldridge Industries and Dick Clark Productions.

Winners and nominees

The cinematic achievements of Christopher Nolan's historical epic Oppenheimer dominated the film categories, securing five awards including Best Motion Picture – Drama and Best Director for Nolan. Greta Gerwig's blockbuster Barbie led the nominations and won the inaugural Cinematic and Box Office Achievement award, while also earning Best Original Song for "What Was I Made For?" by Billie Eilish and Finneas O'Connell. In television, the final season of HBO's ''Succession'' claimed four awards, including Best Television Series – Drama, and FX's ''The Bear'' won three awards, such as Best Television Series – Musical or Comedy. Notable acting winners included Lily Gladstone for Killers of the Flower Moon, Cillian Murphy for Oppenheimer, and Emma Stone for Poor Things.

Presenters and performers

The ceremony featured a diverse array of presenters from film and television, including Oprah Winfrey, Kevin Costner, Florence Pugh, and Will Ferrell. Musical performances were a key component, with Billie Eilish and Finneas O'Connell performing their award-winning song "What Was I Made For?" from the Barbie soundtrack. The Golden Globe Awards orchestra provided the evening's score under the direction of longtime musical director William Ross.

Ceremony details

The event was produced by Dick Clark Productions and marked the first ceremony broadcast on CBS after the NBC network ended its long-standing partnership with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Red carpet arrivals were covered by Entertainment Tonight and ''People'' magazine. Security for the high-profile event at The Beverly Hilton was managed by the Beverly Hills Police Department in coordination with private firms.

Critical reception

Media coverage from outlets like The Hollywood Reporter, ''Variety'', and The New York Times focused on the ceremony's attempt to rebuild its reputation following recent controversies surrounding the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Reviews for host Jo Koy's performance were mixed, with some critics praising his energy but others critiquing his monologue material. The streamlined broadcast and the strong showing for films like Oppenheimer and Barbie were generally noted as positive steps for the Golden Globe Awards.

Ratings and viewership

Preliminary data from Nielsen reported an average of 9.4 million viewers across the CBS broadcast and Paramount+ streams, representing a significant increase from the previous year's ceremony on NBC. This uptick was attributed to the promotional power of CBS and interest in major nominated films like Barbie and Oppenheimer. The ratings were analyzed by industry publications such as Deadline Hollywood and Adweek.

Controversies and notable moments

The ceremony was conducted under the shadow of past scandals involving the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, including issues of diversity and ethical conduct. A notable moment occurred when Kieran Culkin humorously told fellow nominee Pedro Pascal to "suck it" after winning the Best Actor award for Succession. The decision to create a new box office achievement category, which was awarded to Barbie, sparked debate among film critics and journalists from The Guardian and IndieWire about the artistic merit of the Golden Globe Awards.
