For those that missed it, actor and comic Jo delivered a sequence of jokes throughout his opening monologue that fell flat amongst celeb friends at Sunday evening’s award present.
Another tremendous awkward second concerned Jo making a joke about Taylor Swift, who was seated within the viewers.
Jo quipped in regards to the enormous fanfare round Taylor’s appearances at her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s NFL video games. He mentioned, “The big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL? At the Golden Globes, we have fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift.”
During his monologue, Jo addressed the general response to his jokes, going off-script to inform the viewers: “I got the gig 10 days ago! You want a perfect monologue? Yo, shut up. You’re kidding me, right? Slow down. I wrote some of these, and they’re the ones you’re laughing at.”
But now, Jo has addressed the criticism in the direction of his internet hosting gig in just a little extra element.
“I had fun. You know, it was a moment that I’ll always remember,” he mentioned. “It’s a tough room. It was a hard job, I’m not going to lie… I’d be lying if [I said] it doesn’t hurt,” he mentioned.
“I hit a moment there where I was like, ‘Ah.’ Hosting is just a tough gig. Yes, I’m a stand-up comic but that hosting position it’s a different style. I kind of went in and did the writer’s thing. We had 10 days to write this monologue. It was a crash course. I feel bad, but I got to still say I loved what I did,” he added.
Jo went on to handle Taylor’s response to his joke about her in additional element.
When requested if there have been any particular moments that he felt fell just a little flat, Jo replied, “I think it was when the Taylor one was just a little flat… It was a weird joke, I guess.”
However, Jo defined, “It was more on the NFL… I was trying to make fun of the NFL using cutaways and how the Globes didn’t have to do that. So it was more of a jab toward the NFL. But it just didn’t come out that way.”
