Despite the last-minute announcement, Koy, known for his standup specials and starring role in 2022's Easter Sunday, brings a celebratory and approachable tone to the ceremony, diverging from the acidity of Ricky Gervais or the subversion of last year's host, Jerrod Carmichael. When Interviewed at the recent Golden Globes red carpet by Entertainment Tonight, here's what Jo Koy said.

When the Entertainment Tonight journalist asked Jo Koy about roasting the guests, "So is there anybody who is a little nervous tonight or should watch out?" To which Koy replied, "No, no, no, we're having fun, you're like that. It'll be funny but it's gonna be fun. We're not gonna lose it, but it's gonna be there, but it's gonna be me." The journalist then said to Jo, "But I love when people get roasted a little bit and I think they do too, most people are self-depreciating." To which Jo Koy flirted, "They know a little what I wrote for you, make sure I see that yellow dress."
