Comedian Nikki Glaser, fresh off hosting the 2025 Golden Globes, shared some of her unused jokes with Howard Stern, revealing the material deemed too edgy for the awards ceremony. Glaser explained that while every joke in her monologue was memorized, several others were written but ultimately scrapped due to concerns about being "canceled." She offered Stern a glimpse into these jokes, ranging from playful jabs at Nicole Kidman's wine habits to a dark quip about Alec Baldwin.

Nicole Kidman's "Wild Robot" Moment

One joke, even filmed for a promo, compared Nicole Kidman to a "wild robot" after a couple of glasses of wine. Glaser expressed regret about not using it, believing Kidman might have taken it in stride.
Alec Baldwin's Absence

An unused joke about Alec Baldwin, who was not present at the awards, alluded to his past legal troubles, suggesting he was "too busy making ghosts" rather than playing one.
Nicolas Cage's Quirks

Glaser also had a couple of jokes about Nicolas Cage, one referencing Elvis's coffin and the other about a skeleton band supposedly following him.
Dax Shepard's Podcast

A joke about Dax Shepard's podcast, implying celebrities' main goal was to avoid being invited on it, was also left out.
Sean 'Diddy' Combs' Legal Situation

Finally, Glaser revealed a joke about Sean 'Diddy' Combs' ongoing trial, suggesting it would be the last time everyone in the room would be together before the proceedings. She explained to Stern that another Diddy joke was used instead, as this one risked implicating the audience.
'Only Murders in the Building' Cast

A longer joke ribbing the cast of 'Only Murders in the Building' about their continued work despite their legendary status, suggesting financial motivations, was also cut.
