MMA Exec Invites Meryl Streep to a Fight After Golden Globes Speech
Meryl Streep's Golden Globes acceptance speech for the Cecil B. Demille Award was one of the best highlights of the night (see the full winners list here), but a certain line didn't sit well with MMA fighters and fans. “Hollywood is a bunch of people from other places, crawling with outsiders and foreigners," the actress said in reference to Donald Trump's language about exiling immigrants.
She continued, "So if you kick them all out, you’ll have nothing to watch but football and mixed martial arts, which are not the arts.” That caught the attention of Bellator MMA president Scott Coker, who extended an invitation to Streep to actually watch a fight for herself.
