Golden Globes

Christopher Plummer has ice water in his veins when it comes to nailing a role -- which is why he says stepping in for Kevin Spacey in "All the Money in the World" was simple ... for him.

The acting legend was leaving Mr. Chow Friday night when we asked him how he pulled off shooting more than 20 scenes in 9 days ... with very little advance notice. His answer was basically -- ain't nothing but a thang. Except way more British and classy.

You'll recall, director Ridley Scott made the 11th hour decision to scrub Spacey after rape accusations surfaced, and he tapped CP for the role.

Fashion designer Michael Costello says stylists have cleaned him out of black dresses ... which is hard evidence a silent protest of sexual harassment in Hollywood is going down at the Golden Globes.

We spoke to Costello from his L.A. store, where he told us black designs flew off his racks in the past few days ... in the immediate wake of Monday's Golden Globes nominations.

There's a report more than 2 dozen women will be wearing black in solidarity, and Costello wasn't shy about name dropping some of his recent A-list clientele, including Meryl.

Netflix will be hosting its own after-party for 2018's Golden Globes Awards -- 'cause they've cut ties with longtime partner and co-host The Weinstein Company ... TMZ has learned.

Our Netflix sources tell us Netflix has opted to take TWC off the billing for their famous party after the awards ceremony in January -- and the allegations against its co-founder, Harvey Weinstein, have everything to do with it.

The Netflix-Weinstein after-party is one of the biggest shindigs during the Golden Globes -- they've been hosting it together for the past 3 years, and even held it at The Beverly Hilton in 2017.

TWC has been a prominent partner with the streaming service for a while now, having produced a handful of movies and shows for them -- including "Marco Polo" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: The Green Legend."

As for the upcoming bash ... we're told Netflix hasn't locked down a location yet for their after-party, but sources say they're eyeing the Waldorf Astoria in Bev Hills.

Dana White says Meryl Streep is an "uppity 80-year-old lady" who was completely WRONG when she took a shot at MMA during the Golden Globes.

We spoke with the UFC honcho about Meryl's comments Sunday night -- when she was ripping Donald Trump's immigration plans and said if we kick out foreigners, "you'll have nothing to watch but football and mixed martial arts, which are not the arts."

White objects in a BIG WAY -- calling the dig at his sport "stupid" and "uneducated."

We also asked if he thought Meryl targeted MMA because Dana gave a speech for Trump at the Republican National Convention.

The folks behind "La La Land" won big at Sunday night's Golden Globe Awards ... and then partied big afterward with the real La La Land's biggest stars.

A gang of celebs came together at Craig's in WeHo after the show, and it was nothing short of Tinseltown at its finest. Some of those in attendance: Justin Hurwitz, Bob Odenkirk, Susan Kelechi Watson, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau ... and a dressed down Tobey Maguire.

It was a perilous night for celebs who dared make it down a notoriously treacherous driveway during a Golden Globes after-party.

Johnny Galecki and Julianne Hough were among the stars who slipped down the cobblestone at Chateau Marmont ... where WME was hosting.

One guy just eats it bad.

Donald Trump isn't taking Meryl Streep's Golden Globes attack lying down -- he's dismissing her as a Hillary Clinton "flunky."

Streep used her acceptance speech for the Cecile B. DeMille Award to bash the President-elect for his campaign tactics ... especially his infamous run-in with a disabled reporter. The speech got a huge response in the room ... and, apparently, at Trump Tower.

Trump called her, "One of the most over-rated actresses in Hollywood, doesn't know me but attacked last night at the Golden Globes. She is a Hillary flunky who lost big."

His Twitter reply continued ... "For the 100th time, I never 'mocked' a disabled reporter (would never do that) but simply showed him "groveling" when he totally changed a 16 year old story that he had written in order to make me look bad."

His right hand woman, Kellyanne Conway, has also joined the fray.

"Atlanta" star Donald Glover dropping a track with Migos?! POSSIBLY!!

We caught up with Donald outside the Chateau Marmont in WeHo Sunday night where our guy asks him if there's something in the works with Migos. You'll recall Donald name-dropped Migos during his acceptance speech for best TV series at the Golden Globes.

Check out the vid ... Donald puts us in suspense but it's his brother and writer, Stephen, who might've let the cat out of the bag.

Meryl Streep's Golden Globes attack on Donald Trump stirred a lot of emotion, and at least one war -- between Meghan McCain and comedian Billy Eichner.

Billy blasted McCain on Twitter after the Fox News host posted a message disparaging Meryl's harsh critique of Donald Trump, calling her a "f****** moron."

Meghan fired back, saying Billy lived in a "bubble" and was part of the problem between Hollywood and the Republican Party. That only made Billy go off again ...

Billy's known to speak his mind on his game show, "Billy on the Street," where he stops people at random for pop quiz questions ... usually with a celeb in tow. We're guessing Meghan's not a fan.

She never responded after her 2nd tweet, so ... score one for Billy?

Jimmy Fallon was truly improvising at the start of the Golden Globes Sunday night ... but had to play off a technical issue at the expense of Mariah Carey as a result.

We got Jimmy arriving at Madeo in L.A. after the show, and he confirms it -- that prompter bit was the real McCoy ... even if the Mariah sabotage joke afterward was planned.

It doesn't sound like he meant any harm ... since he plans to "talk" to her soon.

Michael Keaton beat himself down for saying "Hidden Fences" instead of "Hidden Figures" while presenting at the Golden Globes ... but he was dripping in sarcasm.

We got Keaton outside Madeo in West Hollywood after the Globes, and he apologized for the flub he made while presenting a best supporting actress award. Truth is, he's not the only one who combined "Fences" and "Hidden Figures" during the evening.

So, Michael was shocked when we told him his mistake was going viral. The tone of his reaction is pretty clear: Get a life, folks.

You saw all the smiling for the cameras, and the rushed acceptance speeches -- but you gotta see the real action behind the scenes at the Golden Globes!

1:45 PM PT -- Hiddleston finally apologized Monday via Twitter for the "inelegant" choice of words during his speech. Hiddleston says he was only trying to salute the bravery of UNICEF UK, Doctors Without Borders/ Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), and World Food Programme, and the children of South Sudan when his nerves got the better of him.

Tom Hiddleston is defending his acceptance speech at the Golden Globes ... a speech that some critics say smacked of "white saviorism."

We got the 'Night Manager' star at the Chateau Marmont in WeHo Sunday night ... where Tom doubled down.

You'll recall, Tom -- instead of calling for peace in the South Sudan -- said he was "immensely proud" his show provided relief to aid workers.

Tom's handlers didn't want him giving our guy an answer ... but Tom took charge.

BTW ... UNICEF gave Tom props after the speech.

DeAndre Jordan wasn't offended by Meryl Streep's shots at sports during her Golden Globes speech Sunday night ... HE LOVED IT.

In fact, the Clippers star says Meryl's been his crush since he was 6 years old -- "I love her!"

Don't believe him?

We pushed him on his favorite Meryl movie ... he flunked that test.

Ryan Reynolds lost the award but scored a sweet consolation prize from Andrew Garfield at the Golden Globes.

Ryan Gosling was walking to the stage to accept the award for "La La Land" when Deadpool and Spider-Man went at it.

Sean Penn drew some big names at his Haiti fundraiser during Golden Globes weekend.

Jason Siegel, David Blaine, Courtney Love, Joel Edgerton, Bill Maher, Jeffrey Tambor, Beck and lots of others showed up to the Friends Haiti Rising Gala at the Montage Hotel in Bev Hills.
