The Golden Globe Awards have always been a hotbed of glamour, but behind the scenes, the real magic happens. As the stars took to the stage to celebrate their wins, they weren't alone in the ballroom - there were power tables where old friends and colleagues gathered to catch up on each other's lives.
At one table, Keri Russell was practically vibrating with excitement as she waved at her A-list pals throughout the ceremony. Brett Goldstein, who sat at a neighboring table, even managed to squeeze in a chat with Matthew Rhys, while Emma Stone stopped by to say hello to Russell. Meanwhile, Jacob Elordi made an appearance, no doubt charming everyone he met.
But it wasn't all about the A-listers - HBO Max's Sarah Aubrey was also in attendance, celebrating her co-producers' wins for "The Pitt". When Jean Smart took home the award for TV comedy actress, the entire table of "Hacks" creators sprang to their feet, cheering and applauding wildly.
Dance was on full display when Teyana Taylor choreographed an impromptu routine all the way down the wings as the song "One Battle After Another" won its first trophy. And let's not forget Queen Latifah, who grooved to Chic's "Good Times", waiting for her moment to hand out a trophy.
The night was also filled with plenty of warm greetings and banter between presenter friends - Bill Maher and Mel Robbins exchanged pleasantries during one commercial break, while Judd Apatow and Brett Goldstein shared a laugh. Even the usually stoic Mike White couldn't resist standing up for Erin Doherty's win for "Adolescence".
As always, some of these moments were so memorable they'd be replayed on social media in seconds after going down. And let's just say that not every attempt at crowd-pleasing ended in success - a certain UFC fighter brief cameo and presenter banter went down like a lead balloon with the industry crowd.
Despite the ups and downs, though, it was clear one thing: this year's Golden Globes had all the glamour, humor, and heart of a classic awards show.

gotta love how everyone was vibin' together backstage at the Globes 
even saw Teyana Taylor bust out some sick choreo moves 
queen latifah always brings the fun 
️ but honestly, what's up with all the extra cameos? feel like it disrupts the whole flow of the show 
anyway, can't deny the heart and humor that went into making this year's Globes so special 
its like they were having their own little party without us lol. but seriously though its so great to see ppl supporting each other like that. especially queen latifah dancing to chic's "good times" she always brings the energy 
and bill maher and mel robins chatting during a break shows u can still be funny and kind even when ur on camera 
. but yeah some of those cameos were pretty cringey 
gotta love the golden globes for all the feels
. And can we talk about Teyana Taylor's dance routine? Wow, that was EPIC 
! I love how everyone was so supportive of each other's wins, even when the jokes didn't quite land 
. The Golden Globes are more than just an awards show - they're a celebration of creativity and friendship. Can't wait to see what happens next year!
. those moments of kindness and support are what make awards shows truly special 
i also loved queen latifah getting up to dance to good times - who knew they still played those funky tracks? 
what was up with the ufc fighter cameo tho? wasn't he supposed to be some kinda big deal in hollywood? 
anyway, it's always fun to see the behind-the-scenes shenanigans at the golden globes. i swear, these people are more interesting than the actual awards ceremony itself 
! And can we talk about how amazing Queen Latifah is? She was totally owning that dance move, queen 
! But honestly, the bit that really made my heart skip a beat was when Mike White got up for Erin Doherty's win... it's all about supporting each other, right? 
? also keri russell looked SO happy at the table she must've been sippin on champagne or smthn
