Ricky Gervais

British comedian Ricky Gervais, known for his provocative humor, occasionally courts controversy, especially during his hosting duties at the Golden Globe Awards. However, there’s one particular joke that stands out as a regrettable choice due to its perceived meanness.

While introducing two actors, Gervais humorously compared their accomplishments, highlighting one actor’s extensive awards and box office success before playfully contrasting it with the other actor, Tim Allen. The joke, perceived as overly harsh, is a rare instance where Gervais acknowledges crossing a line in his comedic style.
