It is that time of the year again! Nominations for the 75th Golden Globe Awards have been announced by Alfre Woodard, Garrett Hedlund, Kristen Bell and Sharon Stone at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, Beverly Hills, California.

The Golden Globes recognise excellence in the TV and film industry and are presented and chosen by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which comprises of approximately 90 largely unknown international journalists, and hence, their accolades are definitely not representative of the entire industry. But the Globes are definitely instrumental in positioning projects in the minds of the Academy Awards’ voters.

As for the 75th Annual Golden Globe Awards ceremony, it will air LIVE on January 7, 2018 from Beverly Hilton Hotel with host Seth Meyers.

On Monday morning at 8:15 AM ET/5:15 AM PT @sharonstone, Garrett Hedlund, @iamkristenbell, and @AlfreWoodard will present the nominations for the 75th #GoldenGlobes LIVE on our Facebook page and http://t.co/2UsWC42EOM. #globes75 http://t.co/0VlXMw1mLy
