Jo Koy took on the daunting task of hosting the 81st Golden Globe Awards and, after receiving mixed to scathing reviews for his debut hosting gig, the stand-up comedian is taking responsibility for certain jokes that may have fallen flat.During an appearance on GMA3, via Deadline, Koy made it clear that he had a fun night hosting the show, but he did admit that it was a hard gig and a very tough room. The comedian said, “I’d be lying if [I said] it doesn’t hurt. I hit a little moment there where I was like, ‘Ahh.’ Hosting is just a tough gig. Yes, I am a stand-up comic but that hosting position is a different style. I kind of went in and did the whole writer’s thing…We just had 10 days to write this monologue. It was a crash course. I feel bad, but hey, I gotta still say I loved what I did.”Koy was asked what moment during the show probably went the most south, and he referred to the Swift joke by saying, “I think it was when the Taylor one was just a little flat. It was a weird joke, I guess. But it was more on the NFL. I was trying to make fun of the NFL using cutaways and how the Globes didn’t have to do that. So it was more a jab toward the NFL. But it just didn’t come out that way.”
