So Why Did Ricky Gervais REALLY Return to Host The Golden Globes? Heh…
As we reported last week, despite all the so-called horrible, “unacceptable”, despicable things he said last year, Ricky Gervais will be back to host the Golden Globe Awards. Well now, Gervais is voicing his comments about taking on hosting duties for the third year in a row.
In a new blog post, Gervais has come clean with a few words about his upcoming gig, which he says will definitely be his last:
“The outrage I caused was of course, as usual, totally out of proportion to the things I said…I don’t think anyone had any right to be offended but they were. This year I’m going to make sure their offence is completely justified.”
So why did he actually return?
“What actually tipped the balance and made me say ‘yes,’ was the fact that it would shut up all those f*cking idiots who said that I’d never be invited back. Is that the wrong reason to do something? Ha ha. I think it is.”
