Roberts is nominated for best female actor thanks to her role in After the Hunt, a thorny drama about sexual assault. The audiences Glaser was testing her jokes about the actress on in local clubs, as it turns out, take Roberts incredibly seriously.
“I just want to do the perfect joke, but it’s like people do not have a sense of humour about Julia Roberts,” Glaser said.
“She’ll be fine – other people are not fine on her behalf. The most innocent joke about her that I made a couple times trying it out, they booed, they were like jeering.”
Leonardo DiCaprio, however, is ripe for Glaser’s picking, with One Battle After Another leading the film nominations with nine nods. The White Lotus, meanwhile, is the most nominated show with six nods, with Adolescence trailing closely thanks to its five (including one for 16-year-old actor Owen Cooper).
