Ricky Gervais has no problem slamming the Emmys, despite the fact that they hired him to present at their show. The British funny-man took the stage at the 2012 Emmy Awards and he made some crazy remarks, as usual.

“So much better than the Golden Globes isn’t it?” he said. “It is isn’t it? You all are so nice and attentive, wishing you were at the Globes and be drinking probably. I’ve just had a beer and it’s the only reason I agreed to hand out an Emmy … is so I could have a beer. They’ve flown me over for the big one Outstanding Director of a Variety Special, so good job this is live, because if it wasn’t, it wouldn’t make the edit!”

Ouch! Do you think his joke went a bit too far?

Sunday night’s Super Bowl ads went off with a bang…and even gave some air time to dead people. Just ask Ricky Gervais.

Social media, celebrity, and cable collide in this hilar-balls Time Warner Super Bowl ad with funny man Ricky Gervais.

A fan gets his revenge when the 50-year-old Brit mockingly rejects his Facebook friend request on his smartphone while sitting outside a restaurant. Dodging a flying grenade that lands in his bread basket and explodes, Ricky zooms down the street amid zombies chasing after him!

Cue commercial voiceover: “We make Facebook friendlier than ever and take Call Of Duty to new heights. We let ESPN go anywhere, make showtimes show up in place you’ve never imagined, and make Netflix more powerful. Whatever your passionate about, we invent better ways to share it, get lost in it and love it even more.”

Back to Ricky: “Okay, I accept your friend request! I was kidding, I was kidding!” he screams at his phone.

Showtime’s Mary-Louise Parker also pops in for a cameo as a marijuana florist with zombies staring back at her through the windows.

Talk about getting high amid creepy chaos!

Ricky Gervais was amazing as host of the 2012 Golden Globes, and once again he held nothing back while going after Hollywood royalty. Check out our choice jokes below and tell us YOUR favorite!

• On Antonio Banderas and Salma Hayek: “They’re ridiculously gorgeous specimens, and probably very interesting, but you can’t f—ing understand a word they say.”
• On Jodie Foster and her movie The Beaver: “I haven’t seen it myself. I’ve spoken to a lot of guys — they haven’t seen it either but that doesn’t mean it’s not good.”
• On Colin Firth: ”What you don’t know about him is he’s very racist. I mean, really nasty stuff. I’ve also seen him punch a little blind kitten. Please welcome the evil Colin Firth.”
• On Justin Bieber: “Justin Bieber nearly had to take a paternity test. What a waste of a test that would have been! No, he’s not the father. The only way he could have impregnated a girl is if he borrowed one of Martha Stewart‘s old turkey basters — open wide!”
• On himself: “No profanity [during hosting]: That’s fine, I’ve got a huge vocabulary. No nudity: See that’s a shame because I’ve got a huge [pause] vocabulary. But a tiny penis.”

Do YOU think Ricky is the funniest awards show host ever, HollywoodLifers?

While presenting Best Foreign Language Film at the Golden Globes on Jan. 15, Madonna and Ricky Gervais definitely had a moment.

Ricky made a joke –shocker — while announcing Madonna as a presenter, saying she’s still a virgin! Of course,  Madonna didn’t hesitate to fire back at a comment like that.

“If you say I’m still like a virgin, Ricky, why don’t you come over here and do something about it,” she quipped.

Madonna never fails to make a scene!

Definitely one of the funniest moments of the night – don’t you agree, HollywoodLifers? Weigh in below!

Ricky Gervais is known to be tough on Hollywood and no one — not even Kim Kardashian — can escape his scathing tongue.

In his opening monologue at the Golden Globes, Ricky went right for Kim.

“The Golden Globes are to the Oscars what Kim Kardashian is to Kate Middleton — a bit louder, a bit trashier, a bit drunker and more easily bought — allegedly,” he said.

Ricky then made fun of her relationship with Kris Humphries. “A marriage that lasted 72 days? I’ve sat through longer James Cameron acceptance speeches.”

He also took a shot at Justin Bieber.

“Justin Bieber nearly had to take a paternity test. What a waste of a test that would have been. No, he’s not the father. The only way he could impregante a girl was if he borrowed one of Martha Stewart‘s turkey basters,” Ricky quipped.

Was Ricky’s monologue too harsh, HollywoodLifers?

Maybe it’s because we’re not the butt of his jokes, but we LOVE when Ricky Gervais hosts the Golden Globes and are thrilled he’s going to be doing the honors for the third year in a row.

We first heard Ricky was asked to host the show again last February, but he was dragging his feet on the commitment, after the back lash he received from many people in Hollywood. However, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association confirmed today the 50-year-old comedian agreed to host the Jan. 15 show.

Do YOU think Ricky made the right decision to come back? Sound off below!

Despite the controversy surrounding his recent hosting gig, Ricky has been asked back to the Golden Globes for the third straight year!

The Golden Globes may be roughly a year away, but organizers have already made the best move possible to ensure another hysterical show — asking back host Ricky Gervais! Ricky wrote in Heat magazine, “The ratings went up again, and the organizers asked me to consider a third year. (But) I don’t think I should. I don’t know what I could do better. I certainly couldn’t get more press for them, that’s for sure.” We think he should come back!

As Ricky points out, his hosting gig gave the program its best ratings in years, and his controversial remarks about everyone from Mel Gibson to Hugh Hefner had everyone talking about the once forgotten awards show.

After watching the incredibly dull Screen Actors Guild Awards we couldn’t agree more with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the group that puts on the Globes every year. Given the amount of coverage Ricky got in the media after the show, ratings would surely be even higher next year if he came back! More importantly, it would actually be funny — a rarity in the world of awards shows!

What do you think HollywoodLifers? Do you want to see Ricky back?
