Chelsea Handler delivered a roast of A-list stars during her opening monologue at the 30th Annual Critics Choice Awards, held at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica on Friday.
The comedian, 49, took aim at Blake Lively, 37, and Justin Baldoni‘s, 41, ongoing legal battle, before poking fun of Nicole Kidman‘s Babygirl sex scenes and teasing Ariana Grande for ‘dating a munchkin’ during the star-studded show.
Chelsea, who introduced herself as ‘your DEI host’, started by roasting It Ends With Us stars Blake and Justin, who were not present, as she thanked them for providing the country with a ‘distraction.’
‘Waking up every day not knowing what news we are going to hear that will disappoint or horrify us, it is so important in times like these to have a distraction, and that’s why I want to personally extend my gratitude to Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively. Thank you for providing us with that distraction. I’m grateful, we’re all grateful.’
‘I think everybody in this room, no matter whose side you’re on, we can all agree to accept that there’s probably not gonna be a sequel,’ she joked.
‘It ends with us, guys,’ Chelsea, who hosted the show for the third time, humorously added.

The It Ends With Us stars’ showdown has completely captivated the globe and has even now erupted into a massive legal battle involving multiple lawsuits and a slew of shocking claims, including accusations of sexual harassment.
The former E! late night talk show host went on to rib Ariana, 31, and her relationship with Wicked co-star Ethan Slater, 32, making a pun at the 5′ 7″ actor’s role in the movie as well as his height.
She told the crowd: ‘It’s nice to see some of our most beloved child stars grown up and thriving. Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande are all nominated tonight.
‘And now Ariana has even found love with a munchkin,’ she added in regards to Slater, who plays a Munchkin named Boq in the 2024 film adaptation of the musical Wicked
After hearing the crowd’s surprised reaction, she said: ‘That’s good news, everybody.’
She went on: ‘It wasn’t just the young actresses. We had a 95-year-old female action star, June Squibb. How cool is that?’
‘From Ariana to June, to succeed this year, you had to either survive Nickelodeon or World War II.’
‘I saw that documentary and Nickelodeon looked harder,’ she quipped.
She also joked about Ariana and her co-star Cynthia Erivo’s emotional Wicked press tour, telling the crowd, ‘I loved the Wicked press tour, the two of them were all over each other,’ before adding, ‘I remember the first time I did molly.’

Chelsea then poked fun of Nicole’s steamy sex scenes in Babygirl. ‘There were so many incredible musical performances: Nicole Kidman in Babygirl face down in a carpet,’ she joked
‘Okay, technically Babygirl wasn’t a musical, but she definitely hit a few notes I’ve never heard before,’ Chelsea added
Nicole was pictured burying her head in her hands after the joke
Chelsea then poked fun of Nicole’s steamy sex scenes in Babygirl.
‘There were so many incredible musical performances: Zoe Saldana in Emilia Perez, that was beautiful, Sing Sing, which is not a musical but I thought it would be. Nicole Kidman in Babygirl face down in a carpet.’
‘Okay, technically Babygirl wasn’t a musical, but she definitely hit a few notes I’ve never heard before.’
Nicole was pictured burying her head in her hands after the joke.
Chelsea also made a hilarious comment about Hollywood legend Ralph Fiennes, after she mentioned his film Conclave, where he stars as Cardinal Lawrence.
‘Ralph Fiennes, don’t think I’m not gonna talk about you. You’ve played a ruthless Nazi, evil Lord Voldemort, and now a celibate Cardinal, and somehow made me want to have sex with you in all three movies,’ she quipped as the camera panned to Ralph, who was pictured laughing.
Chelsea went on: ‘I am not alone. You’ve made some truly unsexy people, very sexy. I’m begging you, please never play Vladimir Putin. I can’t do that again.’
‘And my other big takeaway from Conclave you Vatican b*****s really love to gossip.’
Later in her opener Chelsea joked about first lady Melania Trump.
‘Musicals weren’t the only incredible films this year, we also had movies for straight people. It was a huge year for biopics. A Complete Unknown about Bob Dylan. Maria about Maria Callas. And Anora about Melania Trump.’

Another star who received a mention in her opening monologue was Irish heartthrob Colin Farrell, whose HBO series The Penguin is nominated in a number of categories
‘Colin spent four hours every day transforming into the Penguin. So I guess now we know how long it takes to make Colin Farrell unf***able. Honestly, I’d still hit those flippers,’ she joked, as the camera caught Colin’s surprised reaction
Anora is a comedy-drama film that follows the story of a young woman named Anora (played by Mikey Madison) who works as a stripper in Brooklyn, before meeting and marrying the son of a wealthy Russian oligarch.
Chelsea then quipped that Janelle James’ character from the show Abbott Elementary is ‘so incompetent’ that she was surprised Janelle ‘hasn’t been tapped to run the real department of education.’
Chelsea then teased Kristen Bell, the star of Netflix series Nobody Wants This.
‘Hollywood was on the vanguard of social justice this year,’ she said, adding, ‘Netflix fought back against the rising tide of anti-semitism by having Kristen Bell get penetrated by a sexy rabbi.’
Another star who received a mention in her opening monologue was Irish heartthrob Colin Farrell, whose HBO series The Penguin is nominated in a number of categories.
‘While we talk about incredible TV, I would be remiss to not mention Colin Farrell. Colin spent four hours every day transforming into the Penguin. So I guess now we know how long it takes to make Colin Farrell unf***able.’
‘Honestly, I’d still hit those flippers,’ she joked, as the camera caught Colin’s surprised reaction.
Demi Moore was also mentioned, as Chelsea told the crowd: ‘I want you to know that you are in good hands. If there’s one thing I can assure you, it’s that I’m very professional when it comes to having a good time. I’ve been doing it for as long as Demi Moore has been acting and I, too, hope to receive an award for it finally.’
Chelsea also touched on her former stint as late night host: ‘I spent seven years on this network, I was the only woman hosting a late-night show. Now 11 years later, look how far we’ve come. In 2025, the easiest way for a woman to get a late-night show is to get the creators of Hacks to write a fictional story about it.’
She capped off her segment with a joke about actress Cheryl Hines and her husband Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s recent Senate hearings.
‘On a less personal note and in the spirit of making tonight a celebration, I want you all to know that you’re in good hands. Some of you will win. Some of you will lose. Some of you will be in the background questioning your life choices like Cheryl Hines at a Senate confirmation hearing.’

The Critics Choice Awards are finally taking place after twice being delayed due to the LA fires.
The show was first slated to take place on Sunday, January 12, before being pushed to Sunday, January 26.
But due to the venue’s close proximity to the fire-ravaged Pacific Palisades, ceremony officials decided to push the show to February.
Wicked, Conclave and Shogun lead the nominations.
Wicked scored the most Critics Choice Awards 2025 nominations, including major nods for its stars Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, as the musical ties Conclave for the most nominations with 11.
Both Wicked and Conclave are also up for the biggest prize of the night in Best Picture.
The two films will face off against an impressive field including: A Complete Unknown, Anora, The Brutalist, Dune: Part Two, Emilia Pérez, Nickel Boys, Sing Sing and The Substance.

Meanwhile, Conclave’s Ralph Fiennes leads the Best Actor field, which includes: Adrien Brody — The Brutalist, Timothée Chalamet — A Complete Unknown, Daniel Craig — Queer, Colman Domingo — Sing Sing, and Hugh Grant — Heretic.
Conclave is centered around Fiennes’ character, Cardinal Lawrence, who is tasked with leading one of the world’s most secretive and ancient events, selecting a new Pope. But he soon finds himself at the center of a conspiracy that could shake the very foundation of the Catholic Church.
Rounding out the top individual honors is the Best Supporting Actor category, which features: Yura Borisov — Anora, Kieran Culkin — A Real Pain, Clarence Maclin — Sing Sing, Edward Norton — A Complete Unknown, Guy Pearce — The Brutalist, and Denzel Washington — Gladiator II.
Both Wicked and Conclave are up for Best Acting Ensemble against Anora, Emilia Pérez, Saturday Night and Sing Sing.
Best Director will be a contentious category, as the field includes: Jacques Audiard — Emilia Pérez, Sean Baker — Anora, Edward Berger — Conclave, Brady Corbet — The Brutalist, Jon M. Chu — Wicked, Coralie Fargeat — The Substance, RaMell Ross — Nickel Boys, and Denis Villeneuve — Dune: Part Two.
Behind the two frontrunners with the most nominations were Dune: Part Two and Emilia Perez, which each landed 10 nods.
