Ricky Gervais Was a Funny Mofo at the Globes




If you saw the Globes, you know how f'ing funny Ricky Gervais was. Sure, he crossed some lines, but they're jokes. People really need to try to take themselves less seriously.

There were many rumors on Monday that Ricky had been banned from ever hosting again, despite yielding the highest ratings the Globes had seen in years. LIES! LIES!

Here's what he had to say about it:

"Obviously the rumour that the organizers stopped me going out on stage for an hour is rubbish. I did every link I was scheduled to do. The reason why the gaps were uneven is because when I got the rundown I was allowed to choose who I presented to. I obviously chose the spots that I had the best gags for. They couldn’t move around the order but I could move around however I wanted.

All the same conspiracy theories as last year too… “So and so was offended”… “hasn’t been invited back yet”… exactly the same as last time. “Paul McCartney was furious”… no he wasn’t. And nor was Tim Allen and Tom Hanks. I was drinking with them after.

Why do people have to embellish? They’re allowed to say they hated it. They’re allowed to say they didn’t find it funny, that it was tasteless, over the top, or whatever. But why do they speculate and make stuff up?Don’t worry, I know the answer. Because it’s more interesting than “it went fine and some people won some awards and then went to a party”. But that’s all that happened."

Gotta love him. He's f-ing funny.

If you don't already, I strongly suggest you watch his show "The Ricky Gervais Show"...Just started season 2, so you have all of season 1 you can laugh your ass off to.

LOVE Ricky Gervais and thought he was funny as hell as usual. He's most of the reason I even watched the show.
