\n\tGreta Gerwig<\/a> doesn\u2019t appear too upset over the polarizing \u201cBarbie\u201d joke<\/a> Jo Koy<\/a> made throughout his gig internet hosting the 2024 Golden Globes<\/a>. Koy obtained largely adverse evaluations for his internet hosting stint, and the \u201cBarbie<\/a>\u201d joke led to backlash on social media as many viewers thought Koy was being reductive and sexist towards the movie.<\/p>\n

\n\tDuring his opening monologue<\/a>, Koy tipped his hat to the \u201cBarbenheimer\u201d phenomenon by jokingly evaluating Christopher Nolan\u2019s \u201cOppenheimer\u201d and Gerwig\u2019s \u201cBarbie.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201c\u2018Oppenheimer\u2019 is based on the 721-page Pulitzer Prize-winning book about the Manhattan Project \u2014 and \u2018Barbie\u2019 is about a plastic doll with big boobies,\u201d he joked because the viewers responded with a muted chuckle.<\/p>\n

\n\tGiven that Gerwig\u2019s \u201cBarbie\u201d actively fights towards gender stereotypes, many Golden Globes viewers discovered Koy\u2019s joke to be tasteless and never wanted. However, Gerwig appeared on BBC Radio 4 Today<\/a> and had a unique, extra glass-half-full take when requested concerning the joke. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWell, he\u2019s not wrong,\u201d Gerwig mentioned about Koy. \u201cShe\u2019s the first doll that was mass-produced with breasts, so he was right on. And you know, I think that so much of the project of the movie was unlikely because it is about a plastic doll\u2026The insight that Ruth Handler had when she was watching her daughter play with baby dolls, is she realized, \u2018My daughter doesn\u2019t want to pretend to be a mother. She wants to pretend to be a grown woman,\u2019\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tGerwig\u2019s movie gained the first-ever Golden Globe for cinematic and field workplace achievement, hardly a shock provided that it was each a essential hit and field workplace power with $1.4 billion worldwide. Those ticket gross sales made the comedy the highest-grossing film of 2023, plus the highest earner in Warner Bros.\u2019 historical past.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt was very wonderful and emotional to be able to take to the stage with the group that made it,\u201d Gerwig mentioned of successful the Globe. \u201cIt felt very fitting\u2026 for all of us, the thing that we wanted most of all was to connect with people and to have people share an experience in the cinemas, in the movie theatres. It felt like even though this is a brand new award, it felt like it was the award to honor that and that was always what we wanted to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe field workplace achievement award was the one prize awarded to \u201cBarbie\u201d on the 2024 Golden Globes, as Yorgos Lanthimos\u2019 \u201cPoor Things\u201d prevailed in the perfect movement image comedy or musical class. Gerwig\u2019s comedy nonetheless stays on observe for a boatload of Oscar nominations, and it most lately picked up 4 Screen Actors Guild Award nominations, together with excellent ensemble solid in a movement image.<\/p>\n

\n\tKoy appeared on\u00a0\u201cGMA3: What You Need to Know\u201d<\/a>\u00a0the morning after the Golden Globes and admitted that he \u201cfell short\u201d as host and that he had an \u201coff night.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
