Presenter's Name Game Nightmare at Globes
9 Dec
Summary
- Presenter Marlon Wayans mangled numerous nominee names during nominations.
- Skye P Marshall's polished delivery contrasted sharply with Wayans's struggles.
- Past presenters like Tiffany Haddish have also faced similar pronunciation challenges.
The recent announcement of the Golden Globe nominations was marred by presenter Marlon Wayans's notable difficulty in pronouncing the names of nominees. His performance was characterized by a palpable fear and a series of ostentatious mispronunciations, creating an uncomfortable viewing experience for many. This incident stands in stark contrast to his co-presenter, Skye P Marshall, whose confident and fluid delivery highlighted Wayans's struggles.
Wayans's anxiety was evident with every foreign-sounding name, and his fumbles, such as mispronouncing Ludwig Göransson and Sarah Silverman's special, drew significant attention. This situation mirrors past instances where presenters have faced similar challenges, most notably Tiffany Haddish at the 2018 Oscar nominations, where she repeatedly mispronounced Daniel Kaluuya's name.
