Ricky Gervais To Host Golden Globes

"Who is Ricky Gervais?" I'm scratching my head, asking the same question.

Well... he is a well known comedian from the UK and is one of the executive producers of the hit sitcom The Office. After viewing the clip below, I found him very funny! I'll have to check on some of his work online.

Ricky Gervais will host the upcoming Golden Globes award show on January 17 2010. The last time the Golden Globes had an actual host was in 1995. It will be exciting to watch, I'm sure. I'll be able to check the replays as soon as it hits YouTube.

Here is a clip from last year, 2008, where Ricky Gervais took his Emmy back from Steve Carell during the 60th Primetime Emmy Awards:
