The coronavirus.

The 2020 Academy Awards did not have a host.

But the ceremony sure did feature its fair share of controversy.

The 2020 Academy Awards will air on February 9 and, once again, not feature a host.

As we learned Monday morning, the ceremony will scarcely feature any people of color, either.

The Golden Globe Awards honor the very best on both the big screen and the small screen.

And the ceremony also serves alcohol!

.... and it's official, folks:

Awards season is upon us!

The people have not merely spoken.

They have spoken AND they have made some very tough choices.

Sid Haig, a veteran actor likely best known for his role in Rob Zombie's House of 1000 Corpses, died on Saturday after being involved in sort sort of accident.

He was 80 years old.

It's a really tough time to be a racist in America.

Very sad news today out of Hollywood.

Spike Lee had himself quite the eventful Sunday night.

First, the veteran director won Best Adapted Screenplay at the 2019 Academy Awards for helping to write BlacKKKlansmen.

The 2019 Academy Awards did not have a host.

Not after Kevin Hart proved to be an unapologetic homophobe.

Because Kevin Hart is a pompous homophobe, the 2019 Academy Awards will apparently not have a host.

But at least the ceremony will now have a bunch of talented performers and impressive films up for its many trophies, as Kumail Nanjiani and Tracee Ellis Ross announced the full list of Oscar nominees on Tuesday morning.

The world of television and movies came together on Sunday night.

As did the world of alcohol, considering how much booze is served to attendees at the Golden Globe Awards.

The 76th annual Golden Globe Awards will air on January 6 at 8/7c on NBC.

Sandra Oh and Andy Samberg will host. Lots of champagne will be consued by those in attendance.

Nearly all the people have spoken.

Or at least many of them have done so.

He was 94 years old.

Actor Al Matthews, best known for his memorable role in the film Aliens, has died.

The iconic actor had retired to Spain, which is where he passed away.

Hollywood has lost a legend.

And Sally Field has lost a true love.
