Nikki Glaser is making history as the first woman to host the Golden Globes alone.

The self-deprecating Glaser won over the audience with her style of comedy during last year's edition. live “Tom Brady Roast.”
In a recent interview with The Times, Glaser said he learned a lot from the roast about how to approach big events like the Globes.
“Now I know I can show up and, if given the right time, kill it like I did before,” he said, noting that he's approaching the ceremony the same way he did the roast: by watching everything. .
“I'm consuming and trying to find what my opinions are on these people and these projects. I'm really just trying to immerse myself in that world.

Their goal: to leave the stage after the monologue and then feel that the rest of the show is “a piece of cake.”
“I'm going to make headlines for the right reasons: maybe say some shocking things, but not upset anyone,” he said. “You know, I'm not going to have to avoid anyone at the after party. The most successful thing I can do is simply say the things I want to say. Say something truthful, possibly get some groans, applause and 'Wow, she went there.' I'm not there to criticize anyone or make any bold political statements. I just want to have a good set.”
