2016 Golden Globes Nominees List Is In, & Here's Who Got Nods

by Alana Romain

Award season is kicking off in Hollywood, with the full list of 2016 Golden Globes nominees announced Thursday, live from the Beverly Hilton Hotel. The awards honor the best in both film and television in over 25 categories, and are voted on by members of The Hollywood Foreign Press Association. This year, the awards will be broadcast Jan. 10, 2016 at 8 p.m. EST on NBC, and comedian Ricky Gervais will be taking over from Tina Fey and Amy Poehler (sob!). The duo hosted the show together (brilliantly) from 2013 to 2015, but Gervais is no newcomer, having already hosted from 2010 to 2012.

It seems the biggest winner this year when it comes to nominations was streaming services (Netflix leads the nominees), but one winner we already know for sure is Denzel Washington. Washington is the recipient of this year’s Cecil B. DeMille Award, which honors “outstanding contributions to the world of entertainment.” Washington is a two-time Golden Globe winner, taking home trophies in 1989 and 1999. Past recipients of the award include George Clooney, Jodie Foster, Steven Spielberg, Robert De Niro, and Robin Williams.

There might still be a month to go until we get to see who wins, but that's plenty of time to formulate predictions. And also time to ponder the ever-important, age-old question: What will everyone be wearing on the red carpet?
