Lily Gladstone Compares The Golden Globes To ‘Squid Game’
deadline.comLily Gladstone won her first Golden Globe earlier this year for her role in Killers of the Flower Moon. In a recent interview, the actress compared the event to the Squid Game. “The meeting people is the fun part of it,” Gladstone said on The Kelly Clarkson Show recently after the show’s host asked her if she enjoyed award shows. “I describe the Globes as a little bit of the Squid Game.” She continued, “The reality is, you’re in shapewear, you need to pee, you have commercial breaks, and that’s the only time that you’re able to do it.
So it’s just a mad scramble, and then that’s the time when you get to jam and meet idols like Meryl Streep.
