14 Times The Stars Showed Their True Selves At The 2024 Golden Globes And Afterparties
The 81st Golden Globe Awards, which took place on Sunday (January 7) at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California, USA, was marked by a handful of memorable moments.
Two new categories were introduced at the ceremony: "Cinematic and Box Office Achievement" and "Best Performance in Stand-Up Comedy on Television," the Barbenheimer phenomenon was brought up, and, of course, celebrities brought their A-game on in lavish outfits for the red carpet.
The grandiose event also included some occasional blunders, with stand-up comedian Jo Koy sparking outrage after being labeled “the worst host ever” at the 2024 Golden Globes.
Cillian Murphy was awarded Best Actor for Best Performance in a Motion Picture in a Drama for his portrayal of J. Robert Oppenheimer in Oppenheimer. Meanwhile, Lily Gladstone won best actress for the female version of the category for her role as Mollie Burkhart in Killers of the Flower Moon.
Cillian and Lily were undoubtedly one of the 83 Golden Globes attendees to go home with a $500,000 gift bag, distributed to winners and presenters, featuring extravagant items like yacht charters, private jet credits, and other exclusive experiences.
Bored Panda takes a look at more memorable moments, this time happening backstage and at afterparties.

Paul Giamatti Celebrating His Win At An In-N-Out
Paul Giamatti was hilariously snapped celebrating his Golden Globe win at an In-N-Out following the ceremony.
Writer Evan Ross Katz shared the picture on his Instagram, writing: "Paul Giamatti celebrating his Golden Globe win at In-N-Out. King. Absolutely no notes."
Paul won Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy Film for his role in The Holdovers.
This is in Westwood, where they hold a bunch of movie premieres. I used to go to UCLA and Westwood was the restaurant, shops, and movie theaters area right next to campus. This In-N-Out opened after I already left UCLA and I'm still mad about it. lmao It's only a couple mile from where they had the Golden Globes.
Mark Hamill's Picture With His Star Wars "Mother," Natalie Portman
Taking to his X page (formerly known as Twitter), actor Mark Hamill shared a picture where he posed with Natalie Portman.
The 72-year-old actor wrote in the post: “Now I have finally met my "mother," thanks to the Golden Globes,” referring to the fact that while he played Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars franchise, starting with 1977's A New Hope, Natalie starred as Padmé Amidala in the prequel trilogy, introduced in 1999's The Phantom Menace.
In the movie, Padmé is revealed as the mother to Luke, as well as Leia, who was famously played by the late Carrie Fisher.
Natalie was nominated for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy Motion Picture for her role in May December.
Please note Mark's fingers on Natalie's back. Open palm, barely (if even) touching her. This is an appropriate way to pose for a photo. Keanu style!

She further captured a conversation between Kieran Culkin and Jack, in which she noted that Kieran wasn’t fangirling but “just vibing.”
A shot of Jury Duty star Ronald Gladden excitingly greeting Jack was also captured.
Kirbie wrote in the caption: “I couldn’t help but notice everyone (read: celebrities and fans alike) were losing their ever-loving minds over Jack Black after the Golden Globes.
“He had people in the stands on the red carpet melting down. Elle Fanning’s boyfriend told him he was her ‘hall pass’!”
Kieran Culkin And Sarah Snook After Their Wins For Succession
Taking to her Instagram page, Kieran Culkin’s wife, Jazz Charton, posted a series of stories capturing the evening.
One of the many pictures Jazz took particularly stood out, as it showed Kieran and actress Sarah Snook acting goofy together.
Both Kieran and Sarah were awarded Best Actor and Actress in a Drama TV Series for their roles in Succession.
Unpopular opinion, I'm sure but I had to give up early on Succession, just couldn't stand any character. They were all greedy, grasping, a$$holes. I know that's what real life is often like but I don't need to watch it. Kieran Culkin's character "pleasuring" himself against the window of an office block was about as far as I wanted to go, thanks.
Heartwarming Photo Of Billie Eilish And Brother Finneas
