The Golden Globe Awards have officially announced that comedian Nikki Glaser will return to host the 84th Annual ceremony in 2027. This will mark Glaser's third consecutive year as host of the prestigious entertainment awards show, solidifying her position as a staple of the event.
Official Announcement and Social Media Reveal
An official post on the Golden Globes' social media handle confirmed the news, stating: "@NikkiGlaser returns to host the 84th Annual #GoldenGlobes! LIVE Sunday, January 10, 2027." The announcement generated immediate buzz across entertainment circles, with fans and industry professionals alike celebrating the decision.
Golden Globes president Helen Hoehne expressed her enthusiasm in a statement to Variety: "We are thrilled to welcome Nikki back to the Golden Globe stage in 2027. Her comedic precision, authenticity, and ability to command the room is unmatched, and we can't wait to see what she has up her sleeve for next year's show."
Glaser's Personal Reaction and Career Aspirations
Nikki Glaser shared her excitement about the announcement with characteristic humor: "I'm thrilled to host the Golden Globes for a third time, not only because it's the greatest gig I've ever had, but because my sister has three kids and now we will be equal in the eyes of my parents and the Lord."
The comedian had previously expressed her desire to return for a third hosting stint, telling Variety: "The hosts that really made their mark on the show, like Ricky [Gervais] and Tina [Fey] and Amy [Poehler] did it three or four times each. I want to be in the conversation with them! You can do anything once, but doing it twice is a feat. I'll probably want to do it a third time."

And I will say this, that she is one of the hardest working people I've met in this industry."
He continued: "She really cares about what she's doing. She goes out, she practices sets, things changed right up till when we went on the air from our first rehearsal to the last. And I've got to give her major props for not just how funny she is, but how hard she works and what a great person she is for this role."
