<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/comedian">Comedian</a> Nikki Glaser gave a preview of what she has planned for her <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/golden-globes">Golden Globes</a> monologue Sunday, explaining how she aims to entertain without truly offending the celebrities in attendance.
The 40-year-old stand-up performer gained attention for participating in a roast of Tom Brady that aired on Netflix last May.
&#8220;I am doing what I was hired to do, which is, I got this because of the Tom Brady roast. That is not lost on me,&#8221; Glaser <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/nikki-glaser-tells-stars-attending-the-golden-globes-come-ready-to-laugh-but-dont-expect-any-it-ends-with-us-jokes-231423570.html">told</a> Yahoo Entertainment on Thursday. &#8220;So I&#8217;m going to bring that to this for sure. It&#8217;s not gonna be watered down, [but] the tone will be different for this.&#8221;
The comedian went on to compare her set to that of another Golden Globes host, who went viral in 2020 for mocking the audience beyond the typical <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/hollywood">Hollywood</a> roast.
&#8220;I&#8217;m not gonna go so hard that anyone&#8217;s gonna be offended,&#8221; Glaser continued. &#8220;I&#8217;ve made a point not to, and that&#8217;s not to disappoint anyone who&#8217;s hoping I&#8217;m going to pull a Ricky Gervais. I&#8217;m not Ricky Gervais. This isn&#8217;t my last Golden Globes, this is my first one. He really went hard on his last one. He was ready to burn some bridges [because] it didn&#8217;t matter anymore.&#8221;
She went on to say that good-natured jokes allow stars to connect with their audience and “look cool.”
&#8220;Celebrities shouldn&#8217;t be nervous because it&#8217;s a great opportunity for them to look cool,&#8221; the stand-up comedian said. &#8220;People at home feel disconnected from celebrities. Although that&#8217;s a thing we like about them that we put them on these pedestals, we&#8217;re really looking for some humanity from them.” 
Glaser added, “And I would really encourage celebrities to just laugh at jokes about you. I know it sucks sometimes. … So if I make a joke about a bad movie you did once that you had nothing to do with, other than that you were great in a bad movie, just laugh. It&#8217;s a really easy way to look likable to the public and actually it&#8217;s a great PR move.”
She added, “Everyone in your camp should encourage you to laugh at jokes. It doesn&#8217;t make you cooler to not laugh. &#8230; I&#8217;m trying to make you look good. I really am not out to hurt anyone&#8217;s career.&#8221;
Glaser said she might dabble in the topic of politics but “will not be too heavy-handed” because “people are tired of hearing about it.”
The one topic she won’t discuss is the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/justin-baldoni-files-250m-libel-lawsuit-against-nyt-over-blake-lively-report">current drama</a> between “It Ends With Us” co-stars Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. “&#8230;even a mere mention of it will seem like I could be on the wrong side of things, even though I would never be,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I also don&#8217;t want to give his name any — I&#8217;m mad I even know his name, to be honest with you, so I don&#8217;t need to say it anymore.&#8221;
“I just want to walk out there and make everyone feel like we&#8217;re in good hands because the host really does set the tone for the whole evening,&#8221; Glaser concluded. &#8220;The tone is celebratory, but also, let&#8217;s laugh about how ridiculous this is with the state of the world that we&#8217;re all dressed up and giving out awards for playing pretend. We have to acknowledge that that&#8217;s silly, even though it is amazing.&#8221;
