BROWN/AFP/Getty Images  by [Megan McCluskey](https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/)  ## Megan McCluskey Staff Writer Jan 8, 2018 5:35 PM UTC The [75th Golden Globes Awards](http://time.com/5091974/golden-globes-2018-review/) was a show filled with [black dresses](http://time.com/5086813/golden-globes-red-carpet-2018/), [inspirational speeches](http://time.com/5091887/elisabeth-moss-golden-globes-speech/) and all the [Oprah](http://time.com/5088311/oprah-golden-globes-speech-cecil-demille-award/) that Oprah fans could have hoped for. But of course, there was also plenty of meme-able moments along the way. As the ball got rolling on Sunday, viewers made quick work of turning all the hilarious, weird and hilariously weird occurrences of the night into GIFs and screencaps for the Internet to make their own. From the push for Oprah for president to Mariah Carey’s seat mix-up, here are some of the most notable memes to come out of Hollywood’s biggest party of the year. ## When _Stranger Things_ didn’t win > [](https://twitter.com/freckleswheeler/status/950188466393919488) > [](https://twitter.com/thisbemesara/status/950185501411151874) > [](https://twitter.com/richiewheela/status/950183933727117313) ## Bartender Tom Hanks > [](https://twitter.com/Dan%5FFogelman/status/950179692543279104) > [](https://twitter.com/angrybrad/status/950245528780070912) ## Nathalie Portman’s Best Director mic drop > [](https://twitter.com/dctrjack/status/950277068197060608) > [](https://twitter.com/HereIsGina/status/950206617319911424) > [](https://twitter.com/subsahaaron/status/950212645965086722) ## When Tommy Wiseau tried to steal the mic from James Franco > [](https://twitter.com/SurvivingGrady/status/950189129664524290) > [](https://twitter.com/hattiesoykan/status/950187905418489857) > [](https://twitter.com/TheJordanRoss/status/950188679670259716) ## Confused Hugh Jackman > [](https://twitter.com/MrFilmkritik/status/950228866672529408) > [](https://twitter.com/katieenallen/status/950188313402540032) > [](https://twitter.com/jehawks/status/950190739505295360) > [](https://twitter.com/DonMiguelBest/status/950192532348133377) > [](https://twitter.com/nygmalpha/status/950195351520194560) ## When Timothée Chalamet realized who he was next to > [](https://twitter.com/siIkysheets/status/950193363650662400) ## Mariah Carey’s seat mix-up > [](https://twitter.com/MariahCarey/status/950207128752582656) > [](https://twitter.com/MeIAmAndy/status/950208438734344194) > [](https://twitter.com/DROWNED062001/status/950246708243558400) ## Oprah’s glorious speech > [](https://twitter.com/grobertrotter/status/950205534778540032) > [](https://twitter.com/MarcSnetiker/status/950205716584779776) > [](https://twitter.com/WajahatAli/status/950203554685444096) > [](https://twitter.com/JoyAnnReid/status/950205162974515201) > [](https://twitter.com/cameronesposito/status/950204943100559360) > [](https://twitter.com/MattBellassai/status/950178826872590336) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5092673/golden-globes-2018-best-memes-oprah-mariah-carey/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5092673/golden-globes-2018-best-memes-oprah-mariah-carey/"},"headline":"The Biggest Memes of the 2018 Golden Globes","datePublished":"2018-01-08T17:35:46.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:49:36.038Z","description":"From the push for Oprah for president to Mariah Carey's seat mix-up","url":"https://time.com/5092673/golden-globes-2018-best-memes-oprah-mariah-carey/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Internet","awards","golden globes","viral","awards season","golden globes 2018","goldenglobes2018"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blta83c85fbb364fa33/6988f76fcf40a85527c4ad9f/oprah-golden-globes.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blta83c85fbb364fa33/6988f76fcf40a85527c4ad9f/oprah-golden-globes.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Golden-Globes-2018-Oprah-Winfrey","caption":"Oprah Winfrey poses with the Cecil B.
