The former 'Parks and Recreation' star is set to return as host of the ceremony with her friend Tina Fey and, after it was pushed back from early January to 28 February due to the coronavirus pandemic, she claimed she and her pal - who previously anchored the event for three years between 2013 and 2015 - don't know what's going on.

Asked by 'Late Night' host Seth Meyers how their preparations for the ceremony are going, Amy said: "The prep is going so good. We just have a few final questions.

"When, how, why, where and what? Just those, that's all we need to find out. But we're going to figure it out."

The host replied: "I think It will be a tonic for all of us to see the two of you in whatever arena it ends up being. I'm looking forward to it."

It was announced shortly after the 2020 ceremony that the two stars were returning to host the 2021 event and NBC bosses were delighted to have secured the "two funniest people on the planet".

Then-NBC Entertainment Chair Paul Telegdy said at the time: "NBC has long been home to two of the funniest people on the planet — Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. And we didn’t want to wait any longer to share the great news that they’ll be hosting the Globes once again.”

And late Hollywood Foreign Press Association Lorenzo Soria - who passed away in August - admitted he "couldn't wait" to see them on stage together again.

He said: "There’s no denying that Tina and Amy’s comedic chemistry is infectious. We can’t wait to see the dynamic duo return to the Golden Globes stage."

The 2020 Golden Globes were hosted for the fifth time by Ricky Gervais, who promised it would be his last stint as presenter of the Hollywood event.
