Golden Globes and Facebook partner for official red carpet show live stream

Here’s a good reason to like Facebook.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Facebook and give viewers a front row seat to the red carpet that can’t be found anywhere else,” HFPA President Meher Tatna said in a statement. “We hope to enhance the overall viewing experience so fans at home can feel they’re enjoying the show alongside their favorite stars at Hollywood’s biggest party of the year.”

“Facebook has had a long collaborative relationship with the entertainment community, and we’re thrilled to be able to extend that through our work with the Golden Globes,” Sibyl Goldman, head of Facebook’s Entertainment Partnerships added. “We always aim to create unique experiences which bring communities together, and partaking in the kickoff of award season in conjunction with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, is a demonstration of our commitment to bring fans together through entertainment they enjoy.”

The two-hour pre-show — hosted by AJ Gibson, Jeannie Mai, Scott Mantz, Laura Marano, and more — will feature interviews with nominees and attendees, streaming live from the Beverly Hilton from 6-8 p.m. ET / 3-5 p.m. PT exclusively at www.facebook.com/GoldenGlobes.

More behind-the-scenes and exclusive red carpet content will be available on the Golden Globes Facebook page and Instagram.
