The 35-year-old host was holding three Golden Globes. He told the crowd that he found the awards backstage and that they belonged to 60-year-old Tom Cruise, who famously gave them back to the association in 2021 after a racism scandal.
Carmichael added, “I think we could use these three things to pay for Shelly Miscavige’s safe return.”
There was a painfully awkward silence.
Carmichael is talking about the wife of Scientology leader David Miscavige, who disappeared suddenly and hasn’t been seen since 2007. This sparked an LAPD investigation that has since ended. Shelly Miscavige is still alive, according to the church, but she lives a quiet life devoted to Scientology.
Cruise, who has been a Scientology follower for a long time, was not in the room to see the moment.
But, in a very bad turn of events, his co-stars from Top Gun: Maverick, Glen Powell and Jay Ellis, were then invited onstage to give an award.
