A crossover moment that stole the spotlight
The 2026 Golden Globe Awards delivered many memorable moments, but one pairing that truly lit up the night was Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Lisa (Lalisa Manobal). Representing two powerhouse industries — Bollywood-Hollywood and K-pop — the duo instantly became one of the most talked-about highlights of the ceremony in Beverly Hills.
Even before announcing the winner for Best Actor in a Television Series – Drama, the two global icons were greeted with roaring applause, proving just how massive their combined star power is.
Behind-the-scenes moments fans can’t stop loving
After the ceremony, Priyanka gave fans a peek into their off-stage fun by sharing adorable behind-the-scenes photos with Lisa. From walking hand in hand moments before going on stage to candid laughter backstage, the pictures captured a genuine bond that felt effortless and warm.
The fan-favourite moments included:
- Priyanka and Lisa holding hands as they walked onto the stage
- Playful pout faces and relaxed smiles backstage
- Chic mirror selfies that screamed “global glam”
Within minutes, the photos began circulating across social media, with fans celebrating the rare and joyful crossover.
Nikki Glaser’s intro adds humour to the moment
Golden Globes host Nikki Glaser added her own spark to the moment with a witty introduction:
“One was in The White Lotus, and one wed the white Nick Jonas.”
The line drew loud laughs and perfectly set the tone as Priyanka and Lisa stepped into the spotlight together.
A special milestone for Lisa
While Priyanka is no stranger to the Golden Globes — having previously presented at the ceremony in 2017 — this night marked a career milestone for Lisa. The BLACKPINK star recently made her acting debut in The White Lotus during its 2025 season, earning praise for her confident transition from music to acting.
On stage, Priyanka spoke about the honour of presenting such a prestigious category, while Lisa acknowledged the strong lineup of nominees, including Sterling K. Brown, Diego Luna, Gary Oldman, Mark Ruffalo, and Adam Scott.
A global stage done right
With her red-carpet presence and presenter role, Priyanka once again ensured strong Indian representation at an international awards show. Her shared moment with Lisa underlined how the Golden Globes are evolving into a truly global platform, where stars from different cultures and industries meet on equal footing.
Final Words
Priyanka Chopra Jonas and BLACKPINK’s Lisa didn’t just present an award — they created a moment. Their Golden Globes 2026 diaries are a reminder of how pop culture is no longer bound by borders, and fans everywhere are clearly here for it.
