Nikki Glaser delivered a number of mic drop moments at the 2025 Golden Globes — from the red carpet to the stage!
Ahead of her hosting duties, the stand-up comedian made her mark in a gold silk satin Prabal Gurung column gown featuring an overskirt and rosette detail at the hip. She continued with a parade of outfit changes as she hosted the event, including a number of sequin column gowns and low-cut designs, totaling over 10 looks!
Her style was was just as much of a standout as her jabs on the stage. The comedian delivered the right amount of sass as she made the A-list crowd erupt with laughter about everything from a naughty joke involving Ben Affleck’s orgasms to a zinger directed at Harrison Ford and even a moment when she made Glen Powell blush.
She also took a moment to roast Hollywood’s not-so-secret love of plastic surgery, addressing the crowd with “I love where you put your cheekbones,” to a huge reaction from the crowd.
She went on to say, “I too drink a lot of water. Idon’t judge. I do it now too,” before closing with, “I love how meditating removes your eyelids – really convenient,” in reference to the popular blepharoplasty “eyelid lift” surgery.
The comedian hosted this year’s ceremony and was also nominated for best performance in a stand-up comedy program for her Max special, Nikki Glaser: Someday You’ll Die.

In a recent interview with PEOPLE, Glaser, who skyrocketed to a household name after her epic takedown of NFL legend Tom Brady on his May Netflix roast, said she’s “not out for blood. I want everyone to have a good night.”
“I am really in service of the people that are being honored there,” she added, noting she plans to have some fun with the A-lister crowd during “the glamorous event where people are taking themselves too seriously.”

Glaser, who hosts the CW’s dating series FBoy Island, said she plans to celebrate and gently roast the nominees of the evening.
“I want Cynthia Erivo or Ariana Grande or Nicole Kidman to feel safe in my hands,” she told PEOPLE.
“Wicked and the press tour, and grabbing the finger — that is all up for grabs as well. And the fact that Ariana and Cynthia are in on the joke now, has made it a lot more accessible. That is up for grabs. At the same time you’re like, ‘Is that going to be funny in a month?’”
Musical drama Emilia Pérez staring Karla Sofía Gascón, Zoe Saldaña and Selena Gomez also isn’t safe, with Glaser joking, “Emilia Pérez being the most nominated thing. No one’s ever heard of it!”
One hot Hollywood topic that’s off limits? Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni’s legal drama.
“I think the Blake Lively–Justin Baldoni thing is such a hot-button thing right now that even a mere mention of it will seem like I could be on the wrong side of things, even though I would never be,” Glaser told Yahoo! Entertainment.
“I also don’t want to give his name any— I’m mad I even know his name, to be honest with you, so I don’t need to say it anymore,” she added.
