Kate McKinnon will also delve into how she was left speechless after sitting at the table with Beyonce and Jay-Z. Speaking about her nerves since it was her first time appearing at the Golden Globes, Kate stated the following.

“I mean the table that we were at — well you’re there and you are to me, everything. And then Portia, everything. And then we had Carol Burnett, you know, American legend. And then there was also Beyoncé and Jay-Z at the table, which, I mean, they’re the king and queen of America, they were unbelievably gracious.”
