Known for her sharp, self-aware humor, she described the ceremony as “Ozempic’s biggest night” to AP. Glaser earned rave reviews during her 2025 debut and helped draw about 10 million viewers, making the Globes the third-most-watched awards show after the Oscars and Grammys. Glaser called her return “the most fun I have ever had in my career,” and promised a monologue as edgy as it is respectful.
