Until Ricky Gervais hosted the 67th yearly Golden Globe Awards Ceremony in 2010, the award ceremony was one of two major Hollywood award ceremonies that did not have a usual host; each year a different presenter introduced the ceremony at the beginning of the broadcast. Gervais returned to host the 68th year Golden Globe Awards in 2011, and will return to host the 69th year Golden Globe Awards in 2012.
