Jamie Lee Curtis stunned on the red carpet Tuesday night in a black pantsuit and lacy cape as she held up a piece of paper listing her name for all to see.

Among them was influencer Tefi Pessoa, who dared to bare - a little too much - in a very risque suspender-style black gown that featured just a thin strap of material over her nipples, while the red of her upper torso was left almost entirely uncovered, save for the thinnest whisp of sheer fabric. 

Joining Tefi on the worst-dressed list and also modeling an overly revealing look was model Gigi Paris, whose nearly-naked dress boasted an incredibly see-through skirt that left her under garments on full display, especially when faced with the flashing lights of the red carpet cameras.

This year's awards ceremony might look a bit different. It's the first year since 1963 that the Golden Globes will be without its 'ambassadors' - the sons and daughters of A-listers who for 60 years have ushered award winners onto and off stage during the event.

Since 1963, celebrity offspring have enjoyed a moment in the spotlight at the Globes, serving almost as prom queens (and kings), while gaining a big publicity boost into the bargain.

Lots of famous names have served as ambassadors. The 1975 Miss Golden Globe was Melanie Griffith (daughter of Tippi Hedren); and her daughter Dakota Johnson played the same part in 2006.

Laura Dern (daughter of Bruce Dern and Diane Ladd) took the role in 1986; and Rumer Willis (daughter of Bruce WIllis and Demi Moore) in 2009.

Sistine, Scarlet and Sophia Stallone — daughters of Sylvester — served in 2017.

But this year, a close source confirmed that the tradition has been ditched, even though the ceremony is back again after Covid. 'It won't happen this year,' the source said.

As DailyMail.com's Allison Boshoff reports, no reason has been officially given, but after a complete overhaul of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association which votes for the awards, focusing on improving diversity, transparency and fairness in the organisation and the event, it's easy to see that this jobs-for-the-kids tradition no longer feels like a happy fit.

Laverne Cox kicked off the awards show's red carpet on a rainy Tuesday in Beverly Hills at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.

The actress looked incredible in a figure hugging blue and gold gown with curled tresses, exuding old Hollywood glamour.

The ceremony is being held once again at The Beverly Hilton hotel in Beverly Hills following a one year break from screens amid controversy over ethical lapses and a lack of diversity. 

Now the embattled Hollywood Foreign Press Association - which puts on the Globes - is seeking a primetime comeback.

The show, which is being hosted by comedian Jerrod Carmichael, airs on NBC and Peacock, and is presented by the Hollywood Press Association and Dick Clark productions. 

The red carpet for the 80th annual Golden Globe Awards is back following the show's one year break from screens amid controversy for lack of diversity and ethical lapses.

The live broadcast for this year's show kicks off at 8pm ET/5pm PT, and will air live on NBC. 

The star-studded ceremony will take place at iconic The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California where it has been held since 1961.

Here is everything you need to know - from how to tune in, to who the favorites are to take home the big awards, including Steven Spielberg's The Fabelmans. 

Austin Butler is the favorite in the Best Actor - Motion Picture Drama category while Brendan Fraser - who is boycotting the event - was not too far behind for his role in The Whale. 

In the Best Actress - Motion Picture Dramacategory,  Tar's Cate Blanchett is the favorite to win category. Following behind is Michelle Williams - The Fabelmans
