Jo Koy has responded to Taylor Swift's reaction to his jibe about her - and he largely seems unfazed.
Koy hosted last night's Golden Globes (January 7) for the first time, and told the crowd that he'd only been given the gig 10 days in advance.
And - arguably - the lack of prep time showed as some of his jokes didn't quite land the way he'd probably hoped.
One wisecrack about the Barbie movie saw the likes of Helen Mirren and Selena Gomez put their head in their hands; but it was his joke about 'Anti-Hero' hitmaker Swift that caused the star to look particularly unimpressed.

Undeniably, Swift's romance with NFL star Travis Kelce has been the talk of the town in recent months - and perhaps the ongoing commentary on their relationship might finally be beginning to grate on the 34-year-old.
Koy said to the star-studded audience last night: "The big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL - on the Golden Globes, we have fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift.
"I swear, there’s just more to go to."
The camera then panned to Swift, who pursed her lips in true Miranda Priestly fashion before taking a sip of her champagne.

Can anyone else hear crickets?
And Koy was later asked about Swift's now-viral reaction ahead of the Golden Globes after-party.
"Aww, man, it was cute. I was just saying it was cute," said the comedian.
"I was just saying it's less cutaways, that's all," he added to Entertainment Tonight.

Both Swift and beau Kelce have addressed the so-not-warm welcome that the singer sometimes receives at his games and, despite her deadpan response to last night's comments, Swift insists that she's not bothered about football fans' unfavorable responses.
"I'm just there to support Travis," she'd previously told Time.
Addressing the amount of time she's shown on the big screen at the games, Swift added: "I have no awareness of if I'm being shown too much and p***ing off a few dads, Brads, and Chads."

Elsewhere, Kelce admitted that he thought the NFL was 'overdoing it' in regards to how much airtime Swift was getting.
Discussing the matter on his New Heights podcast, Kelce's brother and fellow footballing star Jason Kelce said: "They're overdoing it."
Agreeing, the Kansas City Chiefs favorite said: "They're overdoing it a little bit for sure. Especially my situation."
Despite Swift receiving some heat by attending Kelce's games, the chart-topping singer has continued to watch him play.
