Ricky Gervais' best lines at the Golden Globes

Everyone is taking sides today over Ricky Gervais and whether he "crossed the line" hosting the Golden Globes last night.  Even the president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association says, "Some of the things were totally unacceptable."  I'm sorry but what did you expect?  If you wanted a host with shit all over their face from kissing all the celebs asses then you should have asked Ryan Seacrest.





Here are Ricky's best lines from last night... the ones that made the celebs squirm, clench their jaws, and hold back tears (via the National Post):



  • “It’s going to be a night of partying and heavy drinking. Or, as Charlie Sheen calls it, breakfast.”

  • “It was a big year for 3-D movies. Toy Story, Despicable Me, Tron. It seems like everything this year was three-dimensional — except the characters in The Tourist.”

  • “There were a lot of big films that didn’t get nominated this year – nothing for Sex and the City 2. I was sure the Golden Globe for special effects would go to the team that airbrushed that poster.”

  • “Next up, Eva Longoria has the daunting task of introducing the president of the Hollywood Foreign Press. That’s nothing! I just had to help him off the toilet and pop his teeth in.”

  • “Congratulations to Hugh Hefner, who is getting married at age 84 to 24-year-old beauty Crystal Harris. When asked why she was marrying him, she said, ‘He lied about his age. He told me he was 94′. Just don’t look at it when you touch it.”

  • “Also not nominated, I Love You Phillip Morris. Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor, two heterosexual actors pretending to be gay. So the complete opposite of some famous Scientologists, then. My lawyers helped with that joke.”

  • “The creator of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, is reportedly worth $7-billion. Heather Mills calls him the one that got away.”

  • [Introducing Bruce Willis] “Ashton Kutcher’s dad!”

  • [Introducing Robert Downey Jr.] “He’s the star of Iron Man, Two Girls and a Guy, Wonderboys. Sorry, are these porn films? Kiss Kiss (Bang Bang), Bowfinger. Really! Up the Academy. He has done all those films, but many of you in this room probably know him from such facilities as the Betty Ford Clinic and Los Angeles County Jail.”

  • “The next presenter is a true Hollywood icon. In ten of the biggest blockbusters of all time, he has shown his extraordinary acting versatility. He has played a boxer … and Rambo. Please welcome Sylvester Stallone!”

  • “He was a jobbing actor, career not going that well if I’m being perfectly honest, who got his big break when I cast him in a show called The Office. He is now leaving that show, and killing a cash cow for both of us. Please welcome the wonderful Tina Fey, and the ungrateful Steve Carell!”

Plus, the National Post left this one out but in his sign-off speech, Ricky ended his thank-you's with, "Thank you to God for making me an atheist."



The GG's are going to be so boring next year without him...
