Who is hosting the 2026 Golden Globes?

Golden Globe, Grammy, and Emmy-nominated comedian and actress Nikki Glaser will host the live broadcast for the second time. She also hosted the 2025 awards.

“Hosting the Golden Globes this year was without a doubt the most fun I have ever had in my career,” she said in a statement. “I can’t wait to do it again, and this time in front of the team from The White Lotus, who will finally recognize my talent and cast me in Season 4 as a Scandinavian Pilates instructor with a shadowy past.”

Golden Globes president Helen Hoehne added, “Nikki Glaser brought a refreshing spark and fearless wit to the Golden Globes stage this year. Her sharp humor and bold presence set the tone for an unforgettable night, making the ceremony feel vibrant and most of all fun.”
