The comedian playfully quipped about the couple still raking in millions from Netflix despite potential underdeliveries, portraying them as beneficiaries of substantial paychecks for seemingly minimal effort. Koy's humorous take on the couple's Netflix deal resonated with the audience, drawing laughter. He also cheekily remarked that "Succession" has nine nominations, calling it a great series about a rich, white, dysfunctional family, before humorously correcting himself by saying, "Oh wait, that's 'The Crown.' I'm sorry." The roast extended to Meghan Markle's recent claim on the red carpet about having numerous projects in the works, creating a contrast with the public perception of her having limited professional engagements.
In response to this humiliation, a Twitter handle allegedly run by an army veteran reposted a video where Koy says Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will get paid millions of dollars for doing absolutely nothing. The army veteran commented, "You guys thought they were going to be at the Golden Globes? Hollywood sees them as a joke; no one takes them seriously because they know they're lazy."
In a light-hearted speculation, Koy playfully wondered if Meghan and Harry were tuning into the Golden Globes and enjoying the comedic banter. The humor persisted as Koy hinted at the couple's absence from the Vanity Fair party, a notable post-Golden Globe event. He touched upon Hollywood's perceived frustration with Meghan's presence, particularly following her controversial actions at recent events. The comedian playfully alluded to the couple's seemingly divisive behavior, emphasizing that their actions have stirred controversy and may impact their social invitations in the future.
In summary, Joe Koy's Golden Globes roast delved into Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's Netflix venture, their financial gains, Meghan's public statements about her projects, and their social standing in Hollywood. The jokes injected a light-hearted atmosphere into the awards ceremony, showcasing the comedian's distinctive take on the couple's public image.
