The Golden Globe Awards ceremony was held in Los Angeles and New York City, where some celebrities showcased outfits they had previously worn while awards were distributed.
Jane Fonda received the Cecil B. DeMille Award during the Golden Globes, with all attendees, including the host, standing in her honor on stage. The star chose to wear outfits she had worn before, stating in a recent interview with Ellen DeGeneres that she had promised two years ago not to buy any new clothes again. She spoke about consumerism, saying, "We spend a lot of money, buy too many things, and then dispose of them. We try to develop our identity through shopping, don’t we? We need to stop that. Stop all this consumerism." She added, "I had to go to my wardrobe and discover something that still fits me and that I had worn before," with her outfit designed by Richard Tyler.
Actress January Jones appeared in a striking red dress during the Golden Globe Awards, which featured a plunging neckline and exposed waist; notably, she wore the same dress ten years ago at the same event.
Global star Amanda Seyfried stunned everyone in her beautiful gown at the 2021 Golden Globe Awards from her home in Los Angeles. The 35-year-old actress wore an Oscar de la Renta dress, paired with Forevermark jewelry. Amanda completed her look with a Jaeger-LeCoultre watch, Stuart Weitzman shoes, and Lancôme makeup.
The 2021 Golden Globe ceremony was held virtually for the first time due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the global lockdown conditions, with nominees participating remotely, preventing any gathering among the award-nominated stars.
