Golden Globe Censorship

Peter Rukavina

I woke up this morning thinking that the news-feeds would be crackling with reports about how Christian Colson said fuck on the Golden Globes broadcast last night — his film Slumdog Millionaire won Best Picture, the last award of the night, and when “Wrap Up” came onto the teleprompter he uttered one of the seven words you can’t say on television.

Given that there’s almost no coverage of this, I’m wondering if, perhaps, nobody other than Canadians watching on the anything-goes CTV, actually heard him.

Any of you Americans in the readership watching last night?

Darren Aronofsky also gave Mickey Roarke the middle finger during his acceptance speech and the camera lingered on it for what felt like forever. Mickey also gave the entire speech with one hand in his pants.
