Brendan Fraser gets brutally candid on his GoldenGlobes2023 nomination, after having previously accused the former HFPA president of sexual assault: 'It would mean nothing to me. I don't want it. I didn't ask to be considered even, that was presumed.'
Brendan Fraser gets brutally honest about his Golden Globe nomination for Best Actor in The Whale. Fraser has been vocally outspoken against the Golden Globe Awards and its governing organization, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, since 2018, when he alleged the then-HFPA president Philip Berk sexually assaulted him at a luncheon in 2003.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY In an interview with Howard Stern's SiriusXM talk show, Fraser gets candid about his Golden Globe nomination, saying he never asked to be considered for the award. The actor says his nomination, which has been his first and only recognition by the Golden Globes, seems "cynical," and that the award wouldn't actually be meaningful to him because of his history with the HFPA.
I found myself wondering is this a cynical nomination. I couldn't really tell because of my history with them and that I still have yet to see the results from their reformation. We all are still awaiting that, to tell you the truth. Get it or don't get it, doesn't matter. What does matter is that it would mean nothing to me. I don't want it. I didn't ask to be considered even, that was presumed. I know that would displease many people for lots of reasons, but...
In response to the allegations, the HFPA gave a press release stating that "although it was concluded that Mr. Berk inappropriately touched Mr. Fraser, the evidence supports that it was intended to be taken as a joke and not as a sexual advance.” Fraser says that the organization conducted an in-depth investigation into the incident, involving him, his friends, and his family members.
If Fraser's nomination for The Whale truly was the Golden Globes' way of trying to make amends, he has ever right to feel angry and disenfranchised by the move. While the HFPA admitted that Fraser was the victim of sexual abuse by the then-president, the organization wrote it off as a joke, offered no sincere apology, and refused to release the results of their investigation into the incident.
