Eddie Murphy’s Will Smith joke just won best speech at the Golden Globes
There was no shortage of memorable speeches at the star-studded Golden Globes on Tuesday night.
First there was the blazing opening monologue by host Jerrod Carmichael.

This, from Colin Farrell, was also amazing, with his film The Banshees of Inisherin emerging as one of the big winners of the night.

But best of all was surely this, from Eddie Murphy.
