Following the controversial jokes by the host of the Golden Globes

&#8216;Mean Girls&#8217; Hitmaker Reneé Rapp Calls Out Jo Koy for His Controversial Celebrity Jabs at the Golden Globes

This year’s Golden Globe Awards was brimming with cold shoulder moments, be it
for good reasons or just mere speculations. The host of this season’s award
ceremony, Jo Koy, had been engaging in relentless roast sessions which garnered
face-palm reactions from most of the stars. While the classic Taylor Swift
[https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/taylor-swift/] poker face expression has
lived rent-free in most people’s minds since the day itself, the songstress was
also bashed by many for not being a good sport about it.

Amidst the recent developments, a fellow American singer, Reneé Rapp, has come
forward in support of the alleged not-so-sporty behavior as the songstress took
a jibe at Jo Koy for his untasteful comments. 


RENEÉ RAPP BLASTS JO KOY FOR HIS NOT-SO-FUNNY-JOKES

The 81st Golden Globes was anything but a quiet night. From the unpleasing
comments about Greta Gerwig’s Barbie to the cold NFL joke, Jo Koy went all out
with his jestful tactics. While most were caught up in a ruckus of uneasy
expressions, celebrities gave their two cents about the jabs even after the
event, including Reneé Rapp as shared by Pop Base on X (formerly Twitter). Rapp
said during a game of ins and outs, “…also my out is the man that was making a
bunch of jokes about like women last night at the Golden Globes.”.

While she also spoke about another “out” regarding a man “yelling” at her at 8
AM, her sliding onto the Jo Koy topic surely grabbed the most attention. There
is no doubt about the fact that the jokes did not sit well with the stars of the
night and even forced out some painful grins. And now that the cat is still out
of the box two days later, it seems like it might take some time for the
incident to die down.

While Jo Koy received the slam from Rapp, Taylor Swift’s reaction to his jokes
also became prey to criticism.


MEGYN KELLY’S TAKE ON TAYLOR SWIFT’S RESPONSE TO JO KOY

The infamous NFL joke that received Swift’s steely gaze became a viral clip
circulating on every social radar. While she was not alone in showering in
indifferent responses and awkward grins, her reaction fell prey to several
criticisms, including SiriusXM’s Megyn Kelly. The host of The Megyn Kelly Show
expressed that Taylor Swift might have made the “wrong move” with the scornful
response.



According to her, since the jest was merely a “gentle sweep”, Swift could have
been a “good sport” to avoid the controversies. Furthermore, The View host, Sara
Haines, also backed up Jo Koy in this regard

Much like Kelly, she also felt that the singer could have just ‘laughed’ it out.
Since at the moment, both the maker and the receiver are in the spotlight for
not-so-good reasons, it can be said that they are now in the same boat- the one
with backlash.
