Awards / Awards Shows

To kick off tonight's 82nd Golden Globe Awards, we're taking a look back at the standout moments since the Globes' inception, dating all the way back to the 1940s.

One iconic moment that went down at the 41st Golden Globes in 1984 ... when actress and director Barbra Streisand became the first woman to win Best Director for a motion picture.

In 1990, actress Julia Roberts' oversized suit made a huge fashion statement at the 47th Golden Globes ... The Giorgio Armani suit and tie is an iconic look still referenced today.

Ariana Grande has got jokes ... and the "Wicked" star was not afraid to let one fly at herself during the Palm Springs International Film Awards.

While accepting the “Rising Star” award for her performance in "Wicked" ... AG noted that she never thought when she started out as a child actor, she would be in the biz at 31.

And with that, she quipped ... "I want to start by thanking my good friends Botox and Juvéderm. I thought I’d be hearing ‘Slightly Withering Star’ or ‘Drooping Star’ by now, so thank you.”

Nicole Kidman got emotional during an acceptance speech at the Palm Springs International Film Awards ... and even started crying as she dedicated her award to her late mother.

The Oscar-winning actress was given the International Star Award for her latest movie, "Babygirl," by film legend Jamie Lee Curtis at Friday's festival in California.

Nicole stepped up to the mic onstage to say a few words -- and almost immediately began talking about the death of her mom, Janelle, in September.

Didn't win a medal at the 2024 Olympics? Don't worry -- one is for sale ... but ya better have some deep pockets if you want to display it around your neck!!

TMZ Sports has learned ... a bronze prize from the Paris Games has just hit the block at RR Auction -- and experts there expect it to sell for over $30,000.

The award was given out back in August during a women's wrestling event -- although it's not clear who the original winner was.

Derrick Rose is begging the Chicago Bulls to not honor him with a statue outside the United Center ... explaining he's seen how the tributes have turned out recently, and he'd rather not risk becoming a meme.

The former MVP made his intentions known in a sit-down interview with ESPN ahead of "Derrick Rose Night" at the Bulls' home contest against the New York Knicks on Saturday.

D-Rose had a solid reasoning behind why he didn't want himself immortalized outside his old arena ... almost certainly hinting at Dwyane Wade's recent sculpture outside the Miami Heat's venue, which was at the center of countless jokes online.

Nikki Glaser is erring on the side of caution when it comes to jokes about Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni ... confirming she won't mention the hot-button topic during Sunday's Golden Globes.

The comedian, who is hosting the annual awards show for the first time this weekend, made it known she's steering clear of the controversy ... out of fear of ending up on the "wrong side of things."

While chatting with Yahoo Entertainment, Nikki acknowledged the on-set feud-turned-legal war between the "It Ends With Us" costars is all anyone can talk about ... but the "mere mention" of the scandal on Sunday could end with her accidentally putting her foot in it.

Matthew Livelsberger, the guy who blew up his Tesla Cybertruck outside the Trump Hotel in Vegas on New Year’s Day, racked up a bunch of medals during his time in the Army ... TMZ has learned.

The Army Special Forces soldier enlisted in January 2006, serving on active duty before switching to the National Guard in March 2011. He then moved to the Army Reserve, serving from July 2012 to December 2012 ... before returning to active duty as a Special Operations soldier, assigned to the 10th Special Forces Group based in Germany.

Livelsberger was a decorated soldier, earning 25 medals, 5 ribbons, 1 tab, and 3 badges in total -- including 5 highly prestigious Bronze Stars, one with a valor device for courage under fire.

Week 18 might be meaningless to the Eagles, but Chris Johnson tells TMZ Sports he'd still advise Saquon Barkley to suit up ... and go chase history!!

After a 167-yard performance against the Cowboys on Sunday, Barkley is now just 101 yards away from Eric Dickerson's all-time single-season rushing record of 2,105 ... but with nothing on the line for Philadelphia, many have wondered if the tailback will play.

Birds fans would love to see him rest up and be ready for the playoffs ... but Johnson -- a former Titans superstar who once rushed for 2,006 yards in 2009 -- said this week he'd advise Barkley to put on his helmet.

And the Emmy goes to ... Adam Copeland?? It could happen ... and the AEW superstar tells TMZ Sports it's surreal to even be considered for the prestigious award!!

The 51-year-old wrestler and actor chopped it up with Mojo Muhtadi on the "TMZ Sports" TV show (airs nightly on FS1) ahead of his in-ring return at AEW Dynamite: Fight For The Fallen ... and we got his thoughts on being up for the Best Supporting Performer in a Preschool, Children's Or Young Teen Program for his role in Disney's "Percy Jackson and the Olympians."

Even though he's got a growing resume in front of the camera, Copeland said he didn't really think of himself to be much of an actor until recently.

Emma Stone's one of the best actors of her generation ... though some people online think The Independent may have rated her way too high.

Here's the deal ... the UK-based outlet dropped a list of the 60 greatest actors -- and, they put the two-time Academy Award winner in second place.

Of course, this means Emma beat out a lot of people's favorite actors and actresses -- including Daniel Day-Lewis (#3), Denzel Washington (#4) and Nicole Kidman (#5).

Avert your eyes and ears, Bills Mafia ... NFL legend Rod Woodson tells TMZ Sports Lamar Jackson is the MVP this year -- not Josh Allen.

According to the former Baltimore Ravens defensive back, it's not particularly close, either.

"It's no question in my head," the Hall of Famer said this week, "Lamar Jackson is the MVP."

Justin Baldoni is hemorrhaging support among women in the aftermath of Blake Lively’s explosive lawsuit against him -- and he’s now been stripped of an award he won in honor of all females.

Here’s what happened … Baldoni -- who directed “It Ends With Us” and also costarred with Lively in the film -- received the Voices of Solidarity Award from Vital Voices on December 9. The award recognizes remarkable men who show courage and compassion in advocating for women and girls.

But, after Lively filed her lawsuit against Baldoni on Saturday, the organization decided to yank the honor back from the director.

Beyoncé stands alone on the Diamond & Platinum throne in the music industry ... the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) announced Tuesday she has the most certified titles for any female artist, EVER!!!

Credit Queen Bey's latest "Cowboy Carter" for helping push her over the edge with 103 total certifications ... the album is platinum, its lead single "Texas Hold 'Em" is double Platinum, and "16 Carriages" is also Gold.

Her 2008 "I Am Sasha Fierce," and smashes "Single Ladies" and "Halo" are a cut above Diamond with 11X apiece, on top of dozens of other certifications from all her solo albums ... including 2013's self-titled LP and "Lemonade," on top of new plaques from classic singles such as "Best Thing I Never Had," "Sorry" and "Run The World (Girls)."

Travis Hunter is coming to his fiancée's defense after a drama-filled few days ... saying all the haters need to find something better to do with their free time, 'cause Leanna Lenee is going nowhere.

The 21-year-old became the second Colorado player to ever win the Heisman Trophy on Saturday ... and while it was a major accomplishment in Hunter's life, some of the talk on social media was what went down at a meet and greet with his fans over the weekend.

A clip made rounds showing Hunter taking photos with fans while Leanna was sitting on a nearby couch ... and at one point, she said, "What do you want me to do ... I just sit here then."

Beyoncé's really earning the name "Cowboy Carter" ... riding away from the Billboard Music Awards with her first country music win after being snubbed by the Country Music Association.

The singer-songwriter took home the trophy for top country female artists at the award ceremony Thursday ... her first win in the genre.

The Queen Bey was also nominated for top dance/electronic artist and top country album ... honors she lost to Charli XCX and Zach Bryan, respectively.

Donald Trump has been on a roll lately and there seems to be no end to his good fortune because he's been named Time magazine's "Person of the Year."

The newly crowned 47th President-elect of the United States posed for a photo on the cover appearing like a man in charge in his dark suit and red tie. Sitting with one hand over the other, Trump has a serious look on his face as he stares into the distance.

Time gave Trump the honor because he marshaled "a comeback of historic proportions, for driving a once-in-a-generation political realignment, for reshaping the American presidency and altering America's role in the world."
