David Duchovny’s absence is pretty painful regardless of what people think of him or their relationship. He’s been a very important part of her life and someone really close to her in a meaningful way. It doesn’t help either to see her so skinny with a new look that hardly suits her. I wish Gillian Anderson the best, but I’m not sure where she’s at and where she’s going. And, yes, I feel sad and don’t have a comforting feeling. 2/2

It’s not like she couldn’t find anyone else, or that she wanted some brits to be speakers but couldn’t because they’re in London. It’s the Golden Globes, everyone is in LA!
These three speakers will keep me guessing forever. I think it’s normal that Chris has been chosen, he also spoke at David’s ceremony, he’s Piper’s godfather and he’s the one who gave her the chance to have a career. It all started with him so I was expecting him to be there. I was expecting Bryan Fuller to attend too, but maybe not to be speaker. He clearly worships her, and she loves working with him. I think he has become a very important person in her life. I’m not sure how close they are, but he was invited to the premiere of XF season 10 and they even left together. They might not know each other for a long time, but they definitely have a special bond. That said, to be honest, I ws expecting him to be in the audience, like Pamela Adlon or Evan Handler were at David’s ceremony.
I will never understand why Joel McHale is a speaker. I really like him, and I’m sure he’ll be honored to do it and he’ll be funny and sweet, but he’s the last person I expected to be there. I don’t know how much importance Gillian gives to this ceremony, but she choose to have this star, so somehow, it might be meaningful to her. I am not sure she will remember Joel McHale in ten years, I don’t know if they’ll ever work together again if we can even call that the two or three scenes they have in common.
I was also expecting at least one woman to be a speaker. Gillian has been very vocal about feminism lately, to say the least, so I thought it would have been important for her to have women around her. Apparently, I was wrong.
David’s ceremony was really good because it was basically family and friends. There was no real surprise, everybody was were they had to be. Gillian’s hasn’t started yet and it’s already odd. I really look forward to watch it tomorrow because I think it’ll be surprising. Good or bad, that I don’t know.
