Why Jason Sudeikis’s Golden Globes Appearance Is Raising Eyebrows

Jason Sudeikis just took home his first Golden Globe for his very first nomination. The actor’s work in Ted Lasso won him the award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series – Musical or Comedy award (per Variety). Sudeikis was widely praised for his portrayal of the titular American football coach who travels to the UK to give soccer coaching a shot. His work on the Apple TV Plus half-hour series wasn’t what everyone was talking about as he accepted the honor, however. 

The evening’s virtual awards ceremony has already provided a lot of laughs, surprises, and even a few cringes. None of it quite touched Sudeikis’ off-guard acceptance speech. People couldn’t help but notice that the actor wasn’t as dressed for the occasion as others had chosen to be. In fact, he was totally relaxed in a tie-dye hoodie (via TV Line). Some fans even noticed his eyes were looking a little bloodshot. It wasn’t quite what you might think, however.

Jason's rambling acceptance was totally on-brand for the actor

“That’s nuts. This is, for me, the coolest thing that a group of– That’s nuts. That’s crazy. Wow,” the actor, who was accepting the award on video from London, where it was 2 am, began (via Decider). He then went on to explain how he didn’t feel he was the best and that it was really those you work with as an actor who are the best.

“I want to give a shoutout to all the people I get to act with because they’re incredible,” he said. Do they make me the best? No. But I know for a fact they make me better. Better than I am, better than I thought I could be and better than anything I could do.”

As he went on, fellow nominee Don Cheadle jokingly gestured for him to wrap it up and Sudeikis agreed. Twitter got a kick out of the relatable mess of a moment, courtesy of the relatable funnyman. “Jason Sudeikis looks like he only just now realized everybody else was gonna dress up for this,” one Twitter user joked. Host Tina Fey even joked about NBC turning Sudeikis’ hoodie into Golden Globes merch, and honestly at this point, who would be surprised?
