Michael B. Jordan’s mother became the talk of the 2026 Golden Globes after her hilarious reaction to a slightly naughty joke.

Comedian Nikki Glaser jokingly criticized actor Jacob Elordi, 38, during her opening remarks, referencing his dual performance as Smoke and Stack in the popular horror film directed by Ryan Coogler.

Glaser playfully acknowledged Jordan’s popularity, joking that having two of him would be even better. She then added a suggestive comment, implying some people might find him attractive even in their thoughts.

Glaser playfully exclaimed his disbelief and excitement about having two people named Michael B. Jordan present. He jokingly altered his own name to suggest a particularly enthusiastic reaction, emphasizing how amazing it was.

The crowd was cheering loudly, but Jordan’s mother, Donna, seemed embarrassed and quietly took a drink, rolling her eyes.

Her son couldn’t resist bursting into laughter, and the sweet moment quickly spread across the internet.

Social media users reacted with amusement, and one person joked, ‘Someone should check in on Michael B. Jordan’s mother!’

Another chimed in, ‘Michael B. Jordan’s mom taking a drink after the “Nikki B. Jerkin” joke.’

And yet another cracked, ‘Michael B. Jordan’s mom after hearing that joke.’  

Before the event, Donna Jordan shared how proud she was of her son and expressed her hope that people would look beyond his fame and see who he really is.

‘Just his commitment and his dedication and his persistence to his craft,’ she told E!. 

I’m really proud of the messages he conveys through his actions and work.

“Sinners” received seven nominations at the awards show, including recognition for Best Actor in a Drama and Best Drama Film.

The Jordans are no strangers to things going viral – just a week before, Michael B. Jordan caused a huge buzz online at the 2026 Critics Choice Awards.

Timothée Chalamet won Best Actor for his role in Marty Supreme, surprising many as he beat out Jordan, who was nominated for Sinners. The category was highly competitive, also featuring acclaimed actors like Leonardo DiCaprio, Joel Edgerton, Ethan Hawke, and Wagner Moura.

While Chalamet gave a heartfelt acceptance speech, visibly moved by the award, the camera focused on Jordan’s reaction for a beat too long.

Jordan’s remarkably calm and impassive expression quickly became a popular topic online during the event, with many people noticing and commenting on his seemingly bored demeanor.

Okay, things really blew up when another video surfaced of Timothée getting emotional while talking about Kylie. He was literally tearing up as he told everyone how much he loves her, and honestly, the internet completely lost it. It was total chaos!

The side-by-side comparison of Jordan’s stoic expression and Chalamet’s intense reaction immediately captivated fans, quickly becoming a popular meme.

A viewer posted a screenshot of the moment on Twitter, captioning it, ‘The camera was on Michael B. Jordan while Timothée Chalamet thanked my partner of three years,’ and included a crying emoji.

People quickly offered support to Michael B. Jordan, with one fan tweeting, ‘If Michael B. Jordan needs a hug, I’m available! #CriticsChoiceAwards.’

Another summed up the hilariously chaotic moment, writing, ‘I’m crying.’

Even though the audience had some funny reactions, it was a sweet moment for Timothée Chalamet. He finished his speech by publicly thanking his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner, saying, ‘Thank you to my partner of three years. Thank you for being my rock.’

Jenner, 28, was seen mouthing ‘I love you’ from the audience as cameras captured the exchange.
