Grayson dishes the most amazing anecdotes overheard behind-the-scenes and shares the film industry legends he’s had the honor of working with.
Since this year will look a bit different than in the past due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Grayson lets Us in on the format of the 2021 broadcast and how that will affect his team’s mission. Wondering if the format will be similar to the Golden Globes, where most stars accepted virtually, or like the Grammy Awards, when artists gathered, socially distant, at an outdoor setup?
