Comedian Jo Koy started by blaming the writers for his jokes failing to land
at the Golden Globes. Now he said it was the star-studded audience’s fault.

The 52-year-old stand-up comic agreed to the awards show hosting gig after
several other prominent celebrities turned it down. Koy received a lot of
backlash for jokes he made from the stage during the January 7 broadcast
after he made fun of “Oppenheimer,” Taylor Swift, and “Barbie.” When Koy
started hearing boos from the crowd, he blamed the bad jokes on his writers.

“Some I wrote, some other people wrote,” Koy said when the Golden Globes
crowd started booing. “Yo, I got the gig ten days ago! You want a perfect
monologue? Shut up! You’re kidding me, right? I wrote some of these, and
they’re the ones you’re laughing at.”

Now the “Chelsea Lately” alum claims the audience should have responded
better to the jokes.

Koy addressed the incident during a comedy tour stop in St. Louis on Friday
night. “Lot a marshmallows, man. They’re delicious, but godd***, they’re
soft,” the comedian said of his audience, per Variety. “I just come from a
different time. I see the changes that are happening. I get it, but godd***,
can we f***ing laugh at ourselves?”

Koy went on to speculate that most of his show’s audience members didn’t
watch the Golden Globes anyway.

“I got a feeling none of you motherf***ers watched it, and I’m kinda happy.
Oh my God. It feels good to live in this country,” he continued. “We get to
say what we want to say. Don’t be apologetic about it at all. Be able to…
speak your mind.”

Koy’s ex-girlfriend, Chelsea Handler, also referenced Koy’s monologue Sunday
night while speaking at the Critics Choice Awards show.

“Unfortunately, Martin Scorsese isn’t here tonight, but that’s not going to
stop me from letting everyone in this room know that I would toss him around
like a little Italian meatball,” she said, reacting to the applause and
laughter by saying, “Thank you for laughing at that. My writers wrote it.”

It would never occur to this idiot that he’s just not funny.

Plus, Chelsea Handler dates men?
