Jamie Lee Curtis and Arnold Schwarzenegger were the only celebrities to turn up to the Golden Globes this year amid controversy over organizer the HFPA’s diversity and practices.
 
Last night’s (January 9) ceremony was held as a non-televised private event, with the HFPA saying that no celebrities were invited.
 
Many famous faces have spoken out against the organization, notably after it was revealed that no Black people were in the HFPA, while Scarlett Johansson has alleged that she faced “sexist questions and remarks by certain HFPA members that bordered on sexual harassment”.
 
However, during the private event, Halloween star Curtis appeared in a pre-recorded clip as she praised the HFPA’s philanthropic work.
 
“I just wanted to honor and stand with them in this continued advocacy of great need and great support that the HFPA continues to serve and offer with their generosity,” she said. “I am proud to be associated with them in this venture.”
 
Schwarzenegger also appeared in a clip praising the organization, saying: “They understand that to support the arts and creativity, one must cultivate new diverse voices from all walks of life and all corners of the globe. I was one of their beneficiaries.”
 
HFPA president Helen Hoehne recently spoke about the organization efforts to change, saying “The HFPA really has worked very hard over the last nine months to reform the organization from top to bottom. There are now people of color included or involved in every decision making of the organization.
