And while to audiences it might look similar on the surface, it's been tumultuous few years behind the scenes following a bombshell report in the Los Angeles Times. 

The 2021 report found that there were no black members in the Hollywood Foreign Press Association - which votes on the awards. 

Stars and studios boycotted the Globes and NBC refused to air it in 2022 as a result. 

After the group added journalists of color to its ranks and instituted other reforms to address ethical concerns, the show came back in January 2023 in a one-year probationary agreement with NBC. The network did not opt to renew.

In June, billionaire Todd Boehly was granted approval to dissolve the HFPA and reinvent the Golden Globes as a for-profit organization.

Its assets were acquired by Boehly's Eldridge Industries, along with Dick Clark Productions, a group that is owned by Penske Media whose assets also include Variety, Deadline, The Hollywood Reporter, Rolling Stone and Billboard. 

In mid-November, CBS announced that it would air the ceremony on the network on Jan. 7. It will also stream on Paramount+. 

The group nominating and voting for the awards is now made up of a more diverse group of over 300 people from around the world.
