For the first part of the Golden Globes last night, he was fucking hilarious;
"It was a big year for 3D movies. Toy Story, Despicable Me, Tron. It seems like everything this year was three-dimensional, except the characters in The Tourist. I already feel bad about that joke. I'm jumping on the bandwagon, because I haven't even seen The Tourist. Who has?
I'd like to quash the rumours that the only reason The Tourist was nominated was so that the Hollywood Foreign Press can hang out with Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie. That is rubbish, that is not the only reason - they also accepted bribes.
"I Love You Phillip Morris stars Jim Carey and Ewan McGregor - two heterosexual actors pretending to be gay. So, the complete opposite of some famous scientologists. Probably. My lawyers helped me with the wording of that joke."
"I was sure the Golden Globe for special effects would go to the team that airbrushed [the Sex and the City 2] poster. Girls, we know how old you are. I saw one of you in an episode of Bonanza."
On Jennifer Lopez - "She's just Jenny from the block. If the block in question is that one on Rodeo Drive between Cartier and Prada."
On multi-millionaire Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg: "Heather Mills calls him the one that got away."
While introducing Robert Downey Jr - "Many of you in this room probably know him best from such facilities as the Betty Ford Clinic and Los Angeles County Jail."
But then he went AWOL for about an hour, and when he came back he massively toned it down

Not sure if you watched the video, but it went down incredibly well. De Niro's face says it all -

What the fuck did they book him for, did they think he was just going to tell knock knock jokes?
Funny, scientology gag was lame though, De Niro cracked me up too.
De Niro gets British humour though. There was a clip of him a few years back doing an impression of one of the Big Brother contestants on some talk show over here; the man is clued up way more than RDJr, Hanks/Allen and any of the other 'stars' that turned their nose up at some banter.

Thats just De Niro's acting face... its in all his movies... he actually hates Ricky Gervais, he just doesn't know how to act any other way
