Comedian Ricky Gervais did something he knew many of his peers would “hate” him for at his fifth and self-declared “last” stint hosting the Golden Globes last week — he unflinchingly tore into virtue-signaling Hollywood, repeatedly putting his fellow celebrities in their place for their various hypocritical stances, and famously instructing winners to “come up, accept your little award, thank your agent, and your God and f*** off, OK?” The result: his popularity has skyrocketed.
According to The Hollywood Reporter’s new rankings on its “Social Climbers” charts, Gervais is now not only the top-rated comedian, he’s also the No. 1 ranked actor. The rankings come after Gervais trollingly pointed out to his critics online that he’d gained over 300,000 new followers within 24 hours of the Globes.
