Comedian Nikki Glaser had Hollywood superstar Nicole Kidman in stitches on Sunday.
The Golden Globe host showed no mercy during the show’s opening monologue as she gleefully roasted Kidman’s musician husband Keith Urban, at one point calling him a ‘kooky Koala’.
Kidman, 57, appeared to take Glaser’s ribbing well, even after the sharp-tongued funny woman made fun of the country music star’s musical ability.
Nominated as best actress for her performance in the drama, Babygirl, Kidman, 57, laughed uproariously as Glaser tossed out one zinger after another.
‘This is your 20th Golden Globe nomination,’ Glaser told Kidman at one point during her monologue.
Glaser then praised Kidman for her well-known high output of appearances in dozens of films and TV shows over the past decade.

Glaser continued: ‘I mean incredible thank you so much for all your hard work. Thank you, and thank you for working so hard.
‘And thank you Keith Urban for playing guitar around the house so much that she wants to leave and make 18 movies a year.
‘Keep strumming you kooky Koala.’
Urban looked bashful as Nicole guffawed at the jibe.
The actress appeared at the ceremony in a very revealing slinky one-shouldered glittering gown by Balenciaga that showcased her slender frame.
The backless dress also revealed a hint of side boob and her extremely toned back as the Aussie star posed on the red carpet at the Beverly Hilton.
She completed her retro look with a Sixties-style bouffant hairstyle, wearing her strawberry locks in a high ponytail.
She accessorised with stunning diamond and sapphire drop earrings and boosted her already statuesque height with heels.

Kidman once again revealed her taut and line-free visage which was accentuated by a full face of makeup.
Meanwhile, Glaser also made fun of stars Glen Powell and Ben Affleck during her monologue.
‘Glen Powell, what a year you’ve had!’ she said on stage, as she pointed to the Twisters star in the crowd.
‘Glen, you were in everything, Twisters, Hit Man, my head when I’m having sex with my boyfriend, thank you so much for the assist, I’ll see you tonight,’ she continued, as Powell began to chuckle.
She also had a shot at actor Ben Affleck during her risqué opening monologue.
‘Tonight, we celebrate the best of film and hold space for television,’ she joked and continued: ‘”Wicked” “Queer,” “Nightbitch”… these are not just words Ben Affleck yells after he orgasms, these are some of the incredible movies nominated tonight.’
She also took playful aim at actor Timothée Chalamet who stars in the Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown.
After praising the handsome stars performance she went on: ‘Your singing voice for Bob Dylan so good that even Bob Dylan said it was horrible,’ she joked.
Meanwhile, the night ended with disappointment for Kidman when Fernanda Torres took home the Golden Globe for best actress in a drama feature for I’m Still Here.
