The 2023 Golden Globe Awards air on NBC on Tuesday, January 10. The ceremony was not televised by the network last year after an exposé revealed a lack of Black members in the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. The HFPA responded by announcing 21 new members (including six Black journalists), a chief diversity officer, and a five-year partnership with the NAACP. The 2023 Golden Globes will be hosted by Jerrod Carmichael.
