Ricky Gervais tells Hollywood stars to "F*ck off" in hilarious Golden Globes opeing monolouge

"You'll be pleased to know this is the last time I'm hosting these awards. I don't care anymore."

Ricky Gervais had celebs — including Tom Hanks, who did not seem to be enjoying himself during several audience cutaways — wincing with his opening monologue.

Finishing his opening monologue with a stern lecture insisting stars don't get political during their speeches (which was ignored by many award winners), he said: "Most of you spent less time in school than Greta Thunberg. Accept your award, thank your agent, and your god, and f*ck off."
