Comedian Joe Coy stole the show as the host of the 81st Golden Globes awards ceremony, delivering a scathing roast that left the audience in stitches.
In a surprising move, Coy took aim at none other than the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, and their foray into TV production for Netflix.
Known for his no-holds-barred humor, Coy didn’t mince his words when he joked about the couple’s hefty paycheck from Netflix, suggesting that they had done very little to earn it.
He even went as far as to mock Meghan’s portrayal of the late Queen in the hit series “The Crown,” suggesting that Prince Harry had called her up asking for money after seeing her performance.
Ouch.
But the roast didn’t stop there.
It seems that Meghan and Harry’s lucrative deal with Netflix is just the tip of the iceberg.
The couple is set to rake in millions of dollars for simply existing, living a life where they get paid just for being themselves.
It’s a real-life fairy tale, but one that has left many in Hollywood seething with jealousy.
The irony of the situation is hard to ignore.
Just a few years ago, Prince Harry was living the high life as a British prince, with all the privileges and wealth that came with it.
Now, he finds himself the b*tt of jokes and the low-hanging fruit of the entertainment world.
It’s a far cry from his previous life, and the contrast is stark.
Speaking of red carpets, it seems that Meghan has made quite a name for herself in Hollywood, but not necessarily for the right reasons.
Her presence at events like Variety’s Power of Women event has caused frustration among other celebrities who had to wait for their turn.
And who can forget the cringeworthy moment when she grabbed the microphone at Kevin Costner’s charity event?
It seems that Meghan just can’t resist hogging the limelight, even when it’s not her moment to shine.
Unfortunately for the royal couple, it appears that their invitations to events are drying up.
Nobody wants to be upstaged by a pair of obnoxious celebrities who act as if they’re the crown jewels of every occasion.
It’s a clear case of stealing the limelight from those who have worked hard to earn their acclaim.
And yet, despite the backlash, the press continues to give Meghan and Harry more attention than they deserve.
After all, they’re not up for any awards, and their presence at these events is questionable at best.
But in the world of Hollywood, where the circus never stops, it seems that anything goes.
So, as Meghan and Harry bask in their newfound celebrity status, it’s clear that they’ve come a long way from their royal roots.
Whether it’s the golden opportunities or the constant media attention, they’ve certainly made their mark.
But one can’t help but wonder if it’s a mark that will stand the test of time or simply fade away like yesterday’s news.
Only time will tell.
