The comedian kicked off his "Jo Koy World Tour" in Missouri on Friday. Jo Koy seemingly slammed the stars at the 2024 Golden Globes and called them "soft" in his first stand-up comedy set since his controversial award show hosting gig.

The comedian admitted his joke about the NFL and Taylor Swift was "a little flat." Jo Koy admitted he had an "off night" hosting the 2024 Golden Globes Sunday following the backlash his jokes received.

Jo Koy became the first comedian to sell out the 14,000-seat T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas in 2022. Jo Koy, who hosted the 2024 Golden Globes this Sunday, has not only made a name for himself as a stand-up comedian but has also built a substantial fortune in his career.

Last year's host, comedian Jerrod Carmichael, claimed he was paid $500,000 for the gig. Jo Koy is hosting the 2024 Golden Globes this Sunday. But will he get paid for the gig? Based on revelations by past hosts and previous reports, the 52-year-old comedian will likely be compensated for hosting this year's Golden Globes.
