The first Golden Globe Awards ceremony took place in Los Angeles, at the 20th Century Fox studios. Since 1961, the awards ceremony has been held in Beverly Hills, at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. The ceremony usually takes place in January, before the Academy Awards.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association was founded during World War II, when eight Los Angeles-based journalists stationed around the world became committed to overcoming the difficulty of overseas communication in the midst of war by sharing information and contacts to keep audiences and filmmakers satisfied when it came to their desire for escape through film entertainment. In 1943, the journalists began as the Hollywood Foreign Correspondents Association, during a time when the film industry had yet to grasp the significance of foreign markets. The group felt an obligation to provide audiences with their judgments regarding Hollywood's most notable productions, and from that notion, the Golden Globe Awards were born, starting with an informal ceremony in 1944 at the 20th Century Fox studios, at which Paul Lukas was honored as Best Actor for his role in Watch on the Rhine," and Jennifer Jones was honored as Best Actress for her role in The Song of Bernadette, that year's Best Film.

Taking oneself too seriously and not knowing how to take a joke are two detrimental qualities to have when in a room with a ruthless comedian. Unfortunately, for many members of the Hollywood community of elite screen and television actors, actresses, directors, producers and other assorted roles they were put on the spot by comedian Ricky Gervais during the recent Golden Globe awards. While it's quite common to poke a bit of fun at the attending guests, as well as the films and series which have been nominated each year, the host in generally expected to keep it all in good taste. Many who caught the broadcast on satellite TV, or watched it later on DVR found the jokes to be relevant and hilarious, although a bit controversial, while those who were the butts of the jokes weren't laughing quite so hard (or at all).

In fact, some members of the Hollywood elite were not just offended, but outwardly upset about the jokes allowed at the Golden Globes. As part of his contract to host the event, however, Gervais demanded the right to say 'whatever he wanted' while performing his hosting duties. This is one mistake the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the organizers of the event, are unlikely to make again. Breaking Bad Season 5 DVD Boxset
