Golden Globes 2024 red carpet: Margot Robbie, Taylor Swift make glam arrivals

It’s that time of the year again – and unsurprisingly, Margot Robbie has stolen the show at the Golden Globes in her Barbie-core getup.

Hollywood’s brightest stars have descended on the iconic Bevery Hilton in Los Angeles for the 81st annual Golden Globe Awards.

It’s one of the most prestigious film and TV awards ceremonies alongside the Oscars, Emmys, Screen Actors’ Guild Awards and the BAFTAs – and is this year expected to be dominated by the “Barbenheimer” effect which swept the global box office in 2023.

The ceremony is now underway, and news.com.au is across all the action from inside the theatre, including all the winners.

Heading into the event, Megahit Barbie led the field with nine nominations, including Margot Robbie for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy, while its premiere partner Oppenheimer was hot on its heels with eight.

Cillian Murphy, who played American “father of the atomic bomb”, J. Robert Oppenheimer, was also nominated for Best Actor in a Drama.

Meanwhile, HBO’s hit series Succession has already set a Globes record for the most nominations ever received by a TV show in a single year – nine.

Before any of the iconic golden statues were handed out though, it was all about the red carpet.

In what should come as a surprise to approximately no one, Margot Robbie made a show-stopping entrance in a hot pink Armani dress with tulle shawl, continuing her months-long run of Barbie-core fashion:

Stand-up comedian actor Jo Koy was this year’s host, marking his first time in the role.

Koy, who is known for his Netflix stand-up specials and previous gig as a panellist on former late-night show, Chelsea Lately, was hired just nine days out from the big event.

“This has definitely been a crash course in how to emcee a major event,” he told The Hollywood Reporter ahead of the ceremony, adding that he wanted to make sure it was a “celebration” following the months-long Hollywood strikes.

“The industry got hit hard. Really did. And there are a lot of us that were affected by it, including myself. I had to put my career to a halt.

“It was scary. And now we’re back. So, let’s remind ourselves of what happened and let’s celebrate that we’re back.”
