Golden Globes 2025: Seth Rogen Censored By CBS After Joking About Ryan Gosling And A “Mickey Mouse Club Handjob”

The celebrities are not holding back tonight.

After Golden Globes host Nikki Glaser roasted almost every celeb in the house and even dared to crack a Diddy joke, Seth Rogen later got censored while cracking what seems to have been a raunchy joke about Ryan Gosling‘s early career as a child actor on Mickey Mouse Club.

Rogen and Catherine O’Hara were presenting the award for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Limited Series, Anthology Series when the Canadian comedians took turns praising each other’s lesser known work that they released across the border. O’Hara joked that Rogen once delivered a “brave” performance as a “young Ryan in Gosling, the Ryan Gosling unauthorized biopic.”

“Thank you, it was unauthorized and –,” Rogen began responding until his answer was cut short and bleeped during the broadcast. When his audio came back, he was saying, “… controversial, but we felt very important to depict.”

Viewers at home wondered what Rogen could have possibly said to get censored on live television that way. “In Canada, they ironically censored what Seth Rogen said about the fake Gosling movie.  Does anyone know what he said which was “controversial”?” one viewer wondered on X.

But IndieWire Awards Editor Marcus Jones may know exactly what viewers at home missed out on. “I’m hearing you all missed a joke about a Mickey Mouse Club handjob scene in Seth Rogen’s turn in an unauthorized Ryan Gosling biopic?” Jones alleged on X.

Per Indiewire, Rogen reportedly said, “And the Mickey Mouse Club handjob scene was controversial, but we felt very important to depict.”

It’s no surprise CBS rushed to bleep that joke from the broadcast. But they didn’t censor any of the other raunchy jokes Rogen and O’Hara made during their presentation.

Rogen later joked that he “did a lot of Canadian adult work” before breaking into the US market.

He listed off several “adult” films he starred in. “Logriders was great, Sticky Syrup, and, of course, the Mooseknuckles trilogy,” he said. “Mooseknuckles 2: Knuckles Deep won Canada’s most illustrious adult film award actually.”

Viewers at home seemed to be enjoying O’Hara and Rogen’s “hilarious” bit on stage, with some calling it the “best bit of the night.”

The comedy duo will be seen together again on Apple TV+‘s newly announced series The Studio.
