No, it's just his Brit accent.

2. That's right up there with "I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous".

13. I thought it would be boring so I didn't record it... darn it
I love it when the favored class gets a little mud thrown on them. Sorry to have missed it!

:hi:

8. I heard he got pulled away for about an hour and given the
riot act. He came back all somber and less shockingly funny.

Think they'll have him host next year?

9. Gervais is an asshole
Did you hear what he said when he introduced Bruce Willis? He called him Ashton Kutcher's father. (Ex wife Demi's younger husband) Not much 'funny' stuff at all, he was quite cruel.

15. Gervais....
was fantastic! I think I laughed at every one of his one liners. I would not normally watch the golden globes but I wanted to see what he would do and he did not disappoint. The jokes about Willis, Hugh Hefner, Tim Allen were all great. That fact that he gave HFPA shit was ballsy and made the show fun to watch. Everything he said about the vapid and flat "The Tourist" was true. Gervais should host every award show ...there would finally be a reason to watch them.
