Amy Poehler and Tina Fey's hosting gigs at the Golden Globes have gone for two years in a row, and they will also be hosting next year's ceremony. Now, the two famous Saturday Night Live alumni have officially announced that they'll be stepping down after next year's ceremony, after Amy Poehler and Tina Fey's critically successful run.
The Amy Poehler and Tina Fey hosting of the Golden Globes was great while it lasted, Poehler said in a recent interview on The Today Show that they'll be stepping down from the gig after the next ceremony.
"It's law of diminishing returns, which is why this is our last time," Poehler said on the show. "Unless you want to be a perennial host, there's nowhere to go but down."
She may have been referring to someone like Billy Crystal, who has hosted the Academy Awards ceremony seven times - although he's not the record-setter, as Bob Hope had done the same gig at the Oscars for an insane amount of times: nineteen!
In any case, the Amy Poehler and Tina Fey duo might not be seeing the Golden Globes from the stage anymore. In the interview, set to promote her new book named "Yes, Please," the funny woman talked about her past ventures hosting the famous award show along with old-time friend Fey, as well as speaking about the Parcs and Recreation finale, as Time Magazine reports.
The actress and comedienne, however, joked that they might still go on to host sometime in the future, saying that they may be "the Jay Z of the Globes" and never retire from doing it.
Whatever the outcome may be, for sure these two great Saturday Night Live women have brought audiences of the awards given by the Foreign Press Association great many laughs - and surely they'll go on to make other great and funny projects!
