Golden Globe Awards 2015: Amy Poehler, Tina Fey roast Bill Cosby (Video)

The Golden Globe Awards are tonight and with it being the final year that Tina Fey and Amy Poehler hosting, they held nothing back — including going in hard on Bill Cosby.

Before the Golden Globes debuted on Sunday night, hosts Amy Poehler and Tina Fey were letting the world know that they weren’t about to hold back any jokes about anyone this evening. Right away in the opening monologue, they proved that was true, as they went in hard on comedian and alleged serial rapist Bill Cosby.

Everyone knew the jokes were coming, but didn’t know when, which helped the suspense of the lead up. But the jokes were just dropped on the world in the monologue in such a shocking fashion that the laughs were little awkward and quiet.

That doesn’t mean that the jokes weren’t funny, as hearing two female comedians tear apart Bill Cosby in as innocent a manner as possible was a brilliant way to start the show.

Comedy is such a soothing potion when it comes to healing wounds from the real world, but rape is something that male comedians only have one viewpoint of. It was Hannibal Burress who brought the rape allegations back to light for the world, but seeing Amy Poehler and Tina Fey roast him at the Golden Globes was as liberating as it was hilarious.
