Five vegan celebrities were nominated for awards at the Golden Globes, with vegan actor Cynthia Erivo receiving her second nomination for her work in 'Wicked: For Good'. The awards ceremony took place on January 11 in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, where vegan performers Emma Stone, Ariana Grande, Jason Isaacs, and Ricky Gervais were also nominated in various categories. Despite not being able to attend the ceremony, Gervais won his category and accepted the award through comedian Wanda Sykes.

The Golden Globes had a vegan-themed ceremony in 2020, with this year's event being hosted by vegan stand-up comedian Nikki Glaser. Other vegan celebrities in attendance included Mark Ruffalo, Pamela Anderson, and Leonardo DiCaprio, who is rumored to follow a plant-based lifestyle. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which organizes the event, adopted a plant-based menu for the awards in 2020, with Joaquin Phoenix thanking them for recognizing the link between animal agriculture and climate change during his acceptance speech that year.
