Marlon Wayans's Golden Globes gaffe has left many scratching their heads, and not just because of his apparent lack of practice when it comes to reading off teleprompter. What started as an innocent enough moment turned into a cringe-worthy disaster after the comedic actor butchered numerous names during the announcement of the Golden Globe nominations.
The most cringe-worthy moments were, without a doubt, those in which Wayans's pronunciation was completely unrecognizable from the actual name. For example, he called Ludwig Göransson "Ludwig G Ronson", Hannah Einbinder "Hannah Eye Bender", and Joel Edgerton "Joel Edd Gerton". One can only imagine how embarrassing it must have been for the nominees themselves to hear their names mispronounced in such a public setting.
However, what made this moment even more awkward was that Wayans seemed visibly nervous whenever he encountered foreign-sounding names. The anxiety in his voice became palpable as he struggled through each name, leaving viewers wondering if he had actually prepared for this part of the show at all.
It's worth noting that not everyone has to suffer through such a torturous experience. Take Skye P Marshall, Wayans's co-presenter, who effortlessly read off every name with precision and confidence. This is what happens when you put in the effort to rehearse – it makes all the difference.
The question remains: why did Wayans seem so unprepared? Was he having a bad day, or was this just another instance of him relying on his comedic charm rather than actual preparation? Whatever the reason, one thing's for sure – it won't be a name that will soon be remembered fondly in Hollywood history.
What do you make of Wayans's performance at the Golden Globes? Was he having an off day or was this just another example of him winging it? Share your thoughts on what would have been better – someone with actual preparation and training, like Skye P Marshall.

i mean i feel bad for the nominees but come on lol skye p marshall looked so much more put together than him 
and honestly it's not that hard to practice reading off a teleprompter like he did. maybe he just got cold feet or something? idk but next time can we get someone else to do the announcing job 
gotta give her props for owning that stage 
or maybe he relied too much on his comedic skills and forgot that not everyone laughs at everything. idk about him winging it 
but yeah, someone with proper prep like skye would've done way better 
Marlon Wayans's Golden Globes moment is so cringe-worthy 
. I feel bad for the nominees whose names he butchered 
. He looked super nervous when reading foreign-sounding names 
. I wish he had rehearsed more like Skye P Marshall 
who made it look effortless 
. Maybe he was having a bad day or didn't want to embarrass himself 
? Either way, it was a major fail 
. We should see more presenters practicing beforehand to avoid such awkward moments 
maybe next time he'll be better prepared? fingers crossed 
the teleprompter fail is gonna be one of those embarrassing moments u can't help but rewatch over and over 
like, what's going through his head? is he even prepared for this? 
i think we can all agree that when it comes to public speaking, practice makes perfect 
not winging it or relying on charm alone. and btw, who knew golden globes would become the most cringe-worthy awards show ever 
Marlon Wayans's Golden Globes moment was cringe-worthy, but I think he got a bad rap 
. But at the same time, Skye P Marshall was on point 
. It's not just about memorizing names, it's also about owning them with confidence 
. I'm curious, what if he'd gotten a script like they do for stage shows? Would that have helped? Or is it one of those things where you just gotta be in the zone, ya know?
️ meanwhile skye p marshall was a total pro 
effortless presentation. gotta wonder if marlon winged it or just had a bad day 
anyway, i think he could've learned from this experience and used it to improve his skills 
Maybe Wayans should take some tips from her!
... I get that nerves happen, but did he really not rehearse this part?! 
. Marlon Wayans seemed way too rattled to be just having an off day 
Meanwhile, Skye P Marshall is over here like a pro, reading off those names like it's nobodies business 
. Something's not adding up...
