'Nobody will ever have to say Me Too again': Oprah reduces Golden Globes guests to tears with 'presidential' speech praising the women AND men leading Tinseltown's fightback from sex abuse scandals

• e-mail

Oprah Winfrey led the charge for female empowerment at the Golden Globes when she delivered a powerful speech urging men and women to work together to ensure no one ever has to utter the words 'Me Too' again.

The actress and businesswoman, who received a lengthy standing ovation as she accepted the Cecil B. DeMille Award at Sunday's Globes ceremony, said she was honored to be the first black woman to receive the accolade.

The 63-year-old, who left most of the audience in tears, began her speech speaking about the feelings she had as a young girl watching Sidney Poitier win the best actor Academy Award in 1964.

'It is not lost on me that, at this moment, there is some little girl watching as I become the first black woman to be given the same award,' Oprah said. 'It is an honor and it is a privilege to share the evening with all of them.'

'I want all the girls watching here to know that a new day is on the horizon. When that new day finally dawns, it will be because of a lot of magnificent women, many of whom are right here in this room tonight, and some pretty phenomenal men, fighting hard to make sure that they become the leaders who take us to the time when nobody ever has to say 'Me too' again.' 

Winfrey's speech was widely praised with some calling 'it one of the greatest American speeches' as others urged her to make a run for President in 2020. 

Two of the media mogul's closest friends later spoke with CNN on Sunday night, and revealed that Oprah is 'actively thinking' about running for president. When asked backstage by Bloomberg  however about whether she had any desire to run for president, the TV titan said: 'I don't. I don't.'

Oprah Winfrey used her Golden Globe lifetime achievement speech Sunday night to issue a rallying cry as she begged both men and women to do what they could to ensure no one ever has to utter the words 'Me Too' again

Winfrey also addressed the sexual misconduct scandal roiling Hollywood and beyond, saying she was inspired by all the women who have bravely shared their personal stories of abuse.

'It's not just a story affecting the entertainment industry. It's one that transcends any culture, geography, race, religion, politics, or workplace.

'So I want tonight to express gratitude to all the women who have endured years of abuse and assault because they, like my mother, had children to feed and bills to pay and dreams to pursue. 

'They're the women whose names we'll never know. They are domestic workers and farm workers. They are working in factories and they work in restaurants and they're in academia, engineering, medicine, and science. They're part of the world of tech and politics and business. They're our athletes in the Olympics and they're our soldiers in the military.'

Oprah was sexually assaulted throughout her childhood, and has been very open about her experiences.

She was raped by a cousin when she was just nine and later molested by an uncle and a friend of the family.

At the age of 14, one of these rapes resulted in a pregnancy, but Oprah lost the baby when she suffered a miscarriage. She had been expecting a boy, and in 2015 named the baby Canaan. 

Oprah went on to recall the abuse story related to a woman named Recy Taylor who was raped at gunpoint in 1944 by six white males as she walked home from church in Alabama. Recy's assault galvanized black people across the country and helped sow the seeds for the birth of the Civil Rights movement. Rosa Parks was among those fighting to get justice for the traumatized mother-of-one.

'The men who tried to destroy her were never persecuted. Recy Taylor died 10 days ago, just shy of her 98th birthday,' Winfrey said.

'She lived as we all have lived, too many years in a culture broken by brutally powerful men. For too long, women have not been heard or believed if they dare speak the truth to the power of those men. But their time is up. Their time is up.

'I just hope that Recy Taylor died knowing that her truth, like the truth of so many other women who were tormented in those years, and even now tormented, goes marching on. 

'It's here with every woman who chooses to say 'Me too' and every man - every man who chooses to listen.'

OPRAH'S INSPIRATIONAL GOLDEN GLOBES SPEECH:  

In 1964, I was a little girl sitting on the linoleum floor of my mother's house in Milwaukee watching Anne Bancroft present the Oscar for best actor at the 36th Academy Awards. She opened the envelope and said five words that literally made history:' The winner is Sidney Poitier.' Up to the stage came the most elegant man I ever remembered. His tie was white, his skin was black—and he was being celebrated. I'd never seen a black man being celebrated like that. I tried many, many times to explain what a moment like that means to a little girl, a kid watching from the cheap seats as my mom came through the door bone tired from cleaning other people's houses. But all I can do is quote and say that the explanation in Sidney's performance in Lilies of the Field: 'Amen, amen, amen, amen.'

In 1982, Sidney received the Cecil B. DeMille award right here at the Golden Globes and it is not lost on me that at this moment, there are some little girls watching as I become the first black woman to be given this same award. It is an honor—it is an honor and it is a privilege to share the evening with all of them and also with the incredible men and women who have inspired me, who challenged me, who sustained me and made my journey to this stage possible. Dennis Swanson who took a chance on me for A.M. Chicago. Saw me on the show and said to Steven Spielberg, she's Sophia in 'The Color Purple.' Gayle who's been a friend and Stedman who's been my rock.

I want to thank the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. We know the press is under siege these days. We also know it's the insatiable dedication to uncovering the absolute truth that keeps us from turning a blind eye to corruption and to injustice. To—to tyrants and victims, and secrets and lies. I want to say that I value the press more than ever before as we try to navigate these complicated times, which brings me to this: what I know for sure is that speaking your truth is the most powerful tool we all have. And I'm especially proud and inspired by all the women who have felt strong enough and empowered enough to speak up and share their personal stories. Each of us in this room are celebrated because of the stories that we tell, and this year we became the story.

But it's not just a story affecting the entertainment industry. It's one that transcends any culture, geography, race, religion, politics, or workplace. So I want tonight to express gratitude to all the women who have endured years of abuse and assault because they, like my mother, had children to feed and bills to pay and dreams to pursue. They're the women whose names we'll never know. They are domestic workers and farm workers. They are working in factories and they work in restaurants and they're in academia, engineering, medicine, and science. They're part of the world of tech and politics and business. They're our athletes in the Olympics and they're our soldiers in the military.

And there's someone else, Recy Taylor, a name I know and I think you should know, too. In 1944, Recy Taylor was a young wife and mother walking home from a church service she'd attended in Abbeville, Alabama, when she was abducted by six armed white men, raped, and left blindfolded by the side of the road coming home from church. They threatened to kill her if she ever told anyone, but her story was reported to the NAACP where a young worker by the name of Rosa Parks became the lead investigator on her case and together they sought justice. But justice wasn't an option in the era of Jim Crow. The men who tried to destroy her were never persecuted. Recy Taylor died ten days ago, just shy of her 98th birthday. She lived as we all have lived, too many years in a culture broken by brutally powerful men. For too long, women have not been heard or believed if they dare speak the truth to the power of those men. But their time is up. Their time is up.

Their time is up. And I just hope—I just hope that Recy Taylor died knowing that her truth, like the truth of so many other women who were tormented in those years, and even now tormented, goes marching on. It was somewhere in Rosa Parks' heart almost 11 years later, when she made the decision to stay seated on that bus in Montgomery, and it's here with every woman who chooses to say, 'Me too.' And every man—every man who chooses to listen.

In my career, what I've always tried my best to do, whether on television or through film, is to say something about how men and women really behave. To say how we experience shame, how we love and how we rage, how we fail, how we retreat, persevere, and how we overcome. I've interviewed and portrayed people who've withstood some of the ugliest things life can throw at you, but the one quality all of them seem to share is an ability to maintain hope for a brighter morning, even during our darkest nights. So I want all the girls watching here, now, to know that a new day is on the horizon! And when that new day finally dawns, it will be because of a lot of magnificent women, many of whom are right here in this room tonight, and some pretty phenomenal men, fighting hard to make sure that they become the leaders who take us to the time when nobody ever has to say 'Me too' again.'

The film that many believe speaks most directly to the current climate - Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, which is about a mother avenging the rape and murder of her daughter - emerged as the night's top film.

It won best picture, drama, best actress, drama, for Frances McDormand, best supporting actor for Sam Rockwell and best screenplay for writer-director Martin McDonagh. 

McDormand plays a mother seeking justice for her daughter as she takes on a small town police force who she doesn't believe is doing enough to solve the case.

In accepting her award, McDormand ribbed the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which hands out the Globes, saying she still didn't know who they are but credits them for electing a female president.

Hollywood had earlier confronted the post-Harvey Weinstein era with a highly anticipated wear-black protest at the Golden Globes and award winners used the podium to praise the brave women who have spoken out against sexual harassment and gender inequality.

Turning the Globes dark on the fashion front had been anticipated for days after the Time's Up movement was announced.   

And host Seth Meyers jumped straight into material about the sex scandals that have roiled the industry, while a number of actresses who played strong, empowered women stepped up to claim awards. 

Meyers, in his first time hosting the Globes, started his monologue by saying, 'Good evening ladies and remaining gentlemen!'

'It's 2018: Marijuana is legal and sexual harassment finally isn't,' he added.

'For the male nominees in the room tonight, this is the first time in three months it won't be terrifying to hear your name read out loud.'

Frances McDormand won best actress in a drama for Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri

The first Golden Globe award of the night went to one of Hollywood's most powerful women, Nicole Kidman, for her performance in HBO's The Big Little Lies

Other early awards continued the theme of female empowerment with Elisabeth Moss winning the Golden Globe Award for best actress in a television drama and Rachel Brosnahan for best actress in a TV series musical or comedy

Big Little Lies, Laura Dern, who took home the best supporting actress TV award, said in her acceptance speech: 'May we teach all of our children that speaking out without fear of retribution is our new North Star'

Meyers noted that Weinstein wasn't present for Sunday's ceremony, but said that he'll be back in 20 years - when he'll be the 'first person ever booed during the In Memorium' segment. 

He mixed his comments about the sexual misconduct scandal with jokes about the nominees and a few barbs directed at President Donald Trump and House of Cards actor Kevin Spacey.

The first award of the night went to one of Hollywood's most powerful women, Nicole Kidman, for her performance in HBO's The Big Little Lies - the series she and Reese Witherspoon produced.

'This character that I played represents something that is the center of our conversation right now: Abuse,' Kidman said, as she dedicated her award to the 'power of women'

'I do believe, and I hope, we can elicit change through the stories we tell and the way we tell them. 

'Let's keep the conversation alive. Let's do it.' 

Other early awards continued the theme of female empowerment.

What an entrance! Allison Williams, Kristin Cavallari and Giuliana Rancic led the charge as she attended the 75th annual Golden Globe Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday

The Handmaid's Tale's Elisabeth Moss won the Golden Globe Award for best actress in a television drama. She dedicated her award to the author behind the best-selling book Margaret Atwood and the other women who have spoken up about injustices.

Moss plays one of the few fertile women left in a world ruled by a totalitarian regime where women are considered property.

'We no longer live in the blank white spaces at the edge of print,' Moss said, making reference to Atwood's book. 'We no longer live in the gaps between the stories. We are the stories in print and we are writing the stories ourselves.'

Rachel Brosnahan won best actress in a TV series musical or comedy for the recently debuted 'The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel' - a show about a 1950s housewife.

'This is a story about a bold and brilliant and complicated woman, and I am endlessly proud to be a part of it,' she said. 'There are so many women's stories out there that need and deserve to be told.'

Kidman's co-star on Big Little Lies, Laura Dern, later took home the best supporting actress TV award.

Dern said Big Little Lies gave her the opportunity to play the 'most outrageous, complicated woman, and a terrified mother - terrified because her little girl was being abused and bullied and she was too afraid to speak up.'

'Many of us were taught not to tattle. It was a culture of silencing, and that was normalized. I urge all of us to not only support survivors and bystanders who are brave enough to tell their truth, but to promote restorative justice.

'May we also please protect and employ them. May we teach our children that speaking out without the fear of retribution is our culture's new North Star.'

This Is Us star Sterling K. Brown took home the Golden Globe for Best Lead Actor in a TV Drama. He thanked creator Dan Fogelman in his acceptance speech. 

'You wrote a role for a black man that can only be played by a black man,' Brown said. 'I'm being seen for who I am.'

Best actor in a comedy or musical went to James Franco for his performance as the infamous 'The Room' filmmaker Tommy Wiseau. Franco dragged his co-star and brother, Dave, to the stage and called up Wiseau. When the Wiseau, wearing his trademark sunglasses, got to the stage, he moved for the microphone before Franco turned him back. 'Whoa, whoa, whoa,' Franco said as the audience chuckled.

Seth Myers slams Harvey Weinstein as he tackles Hollywood sex abuse scandal in opening monologue

 

Seth Meyers blasted Harvey Weinstein as he got the Golden Globes awards underway with a bang.

The awards show's host tackled the Hollywood sex abuse scandal full-on as he cracked awkward jokes about disgraced movie mogul Weinstein and House of Cards actor Kevin Spacey.

Late night host Meyers' opening monologue didn't take long to address the scandal, as he said: 'Good evening ladies and remaining gentlemen.'

He later added: 'Harvey Weinstein isn't here tonight because I've heard rumors that he's crazy and difficult to work with.

'But don't worry, he'll be back in 20 years when he becomes the first person ever booed during the In Memoriam.'

As the gathered stars groaned, he added: 'It will sound like that.'

There were audible gasps from stars in the audience - most of whom had worn black in support of the Time's Up movement - as Meyers continued to lay into the likes of Weinstein.

'It's 2018: Marijuana is legal and sexual harassment finally isn't,' the host added, to applause.

It was never going to be an easy gig for Meyers, but he received warm applause from the crowd despite a series of awkward jokes about the ongoing scandal in Hollywood.

'A lot of people thought it would be more appropriate for a woman to host tonight's show, and they might be right, but if it makes you feel any better I have absolutely no power in Hollywood,' Meyers said.

Moving away from the Weinstein scandal, Meyers also found time to make a dig at President Donald Trump.

The Golden Globes host made reference to the 2011 White House Correspondents' Dinner speech in which he roasted Trump - then a member of the audience - telling him he was not qualified to be commander-in-chief.

He continued: 'I just want to say: Oprah, you will never be president. You do not have what it takes. And [Tom] Hanks. Where's Hanks? You will never be vice president.'

Meyers ended his monologue by mentioning the activists who were in attendance with the various celebrities as part of the Time's Up initiative and thanking the movie and TV set employees who work long hours every day.

'Most of the jobs on film sets are for people who work long, hard hours. Those people aren't there thanks to their rich dad, expect for that one PA. People in this room worked really hard to get here, but it's clear that the women had to work even harder,' he said.

Meryl Streep walked the Golden Globes' red carpet hand-in-hand with justice activist Ai-jen Po, while Michelle Williams turned up with 'Me Too' founder and activist Tarana Burke

Red touch: Mandy Moore, star of This Is US, wowed in her black gown, which featured a bold belt; the actress added ruby earrings and equally bright lipstick

Sunday night's all-black demonstration was prompted by the new initiative Time's Up, backed by more than 300 women in Hollywood including Meryl Streep, Michelle Williams, Dern and Winfrey. The group have banded together to advocate for gender parity in executive ranks and provide legal defense aid for sexual harassment victims.

Ashley Judd, the first big name to go on record with her Harvey Weinstein experience, and Salma Hayek, who penned an op-ed last month about her nightmare with Weinstein, arrived at the ceremony together.

Just about every man and woman to take to the red carpet was dressed in black with many of them also wearing a Time's Up pin. 

Streep said in a red carpet interview: 'People are aware now of a power imbalance and it's something that leads to abuse'.

'It led to abuse in our own industry and led to abuse in domestic work... in the military, in Congress... and we want to fix that.

'We feel emboldened to stand together in a thick black line.' 

Williams, speaking on the red carpet alongside Tarana Burke, said they were here because of the work the 'Me Too' founder had achieved. 

'I thought I would have to raise my daughter to learn to protect herself... but thanks to Tarana's work we have the opportunity to hand our children a different world,' Williams said.

Alison Brie said that the Time's Up initiative had made her realize how powerful women can be when they all stand together.

The actress, who was nominated for a Golden Globe for her work in the Netflix wrestling show GLOW, wore a dramatic strapless black dress with a sweetheart neckline. Brie said she thinks change will come when more women are in power at the top. She added that a lot more listening needs to happen across all industries. 

Didn't they get the memo? Rebels shun Time's Up initiative at Golden Globes

While the majority of those gracing the Golden Globes red carpet black in support of the Time's Up movement, some opted for color.

Indeed the President of The Hollywood Foreign Press herself, Meher Tatna, teamed her Time's Up pin with a red and gold gown.

Then there was Blanca Blanco, perhaps best known for her infamous wardrobe malfunction at last year's Oscars.

German model Barbara Meier also seemed not to have received the memo, in a spring-like embellished chiffon gown.

Tatna, attending for the first time since her June election as the HFPA's President, proved the most notable of those to skip the somber garb.

The Mumbai-born reporter for Singapore daily The New Paper runs the organization of 90 international entertainment journalists.

While she chose not to wear black, Meher has made in clear she stands in support of the Time's Up movement, sharing her own experiences of sexual harassment.

Eight actresses, including Meryl Streep, Michelle Williams and Emma Stone, brought gender and racial justice activists as their guests, including MeToo founder Tarana Burke and the director of the National Domestic Workers Alliance, Ai-jen Poo.

The advocates and activists said Sunday that their hope in walking the red carpet was to shift the focus back on survivors and solutions, and away from perpetrators of sexual misconduct.

Though the red carpet was dominated by black, actors made it their own: Allison Williams provided a pop of orange and silver on the bodice of her black Armani Prive column gown. Singer Kelly Clarkson sported gold at the neck and on one sleeve of her black Christian Siriano dress.

By Charlie Lankston for Dailymail.com 

The focus at this year's Golden Globes was not on the awards themselves - but on the very powerful public debut of the Time's Up movement, an anti-sexual harassment initiative spearheaded by some of Hollywood's biggest and brightest female stars.

But it wasn't just the ladies making a stand at the 75th annual award ceremony - many of whom did so by wearing all-black ensembles - their male peers also did their bit to show support for the movement by proudly opting not to wear traditional white tuxedo shirt in favor of donning totally-black suits.

Justin Timberlake, Ewan McGregor, and William H. Macy were just some of the leading male stars who took to the red carpet at Sunday night's awards ceremony wearing all black - with all three men also adding Time's Up pins to their suit jackets in an added show of support.

William H. Macy, 67, also made a solo appearance on the red carpet, attending without his wife of 20 years, actress Felicity Huffman, and he too chose to do so in a totally black outfit.

However, not everybody has supported the protest, including Rose McGowan, who has accused Weinstein of rape and loudly and persistently called the effort an empty gesture.  

Before his fall, Weinstein lorded over the Globes and two decades of winners.

Everything in Hollywood's carefully choreographed awards season has been altered by the still unfolding revelations of sexual misconduct, from the nominees to the red-carpet wardrobe.  

Time's Up will advocate for gender equality among studio and talent agency executives and has also created a $14 million legal fund for victims of sexual harassment.
