Carey Mulligan and Chadwick Boseman are predicted to win big, but ceremony to air following damning investigation into voting membership
An unusual awards season kicks off this weekend with the delayed Golden Globes, a ceremony that’s long been the butt of many an industry joke but this year, its standing has gone from bad to worse after a flood of controversy.
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, a group of 87 international journalists who vote on the awards, has come under fire after the Los Angeles Times published two damning exposés on both the questionable credentials of members and the ease at which they are reportedly courted by studios. The non-profit organisation has been accused of “ethical lapses” with members reportedly flown to Paris in support of the Netflix comedy Emily in Paris, which received two nominations, while also being paid nearly $2m by the group between 2019 and 2020.
