Jimmy Fallon’s Golden Globes monologue got off to a rocky start on Sunday night.
The “Tonight Show” host stepped on stage after dancing with Justin Timberlake in a starry night sky during a “La La Land” parody sequence, and was welcomed by a room full of Hollywood stars and a malfunctioning teleprompter.
“Welcome to the Golden Globes. Already the teleprompter is down, so this is a great way to start the show,” Fallon said. “You know what, I’ll make up this monologue. This is what happens at the Golden Globes.”
After a minute of Fallon rambling, the Dick Clark Productions team got the teleprompter working and the comedian back on track for a monologue that was upstaged by his grand entrance.
