Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell Shine at 2026 Golden Globes Amid Cher Podcast Buzz
Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell made a stunning appearance at the 2026 Golden Globes, turning the event into a romantic date night. The couple attended the 83rd Annual Golden Globe Awards held on January 11, where they received nominations in prominent categories.
Fashion Statements on the Red Carpet
Both stars showcased their style in Giorgio Armani designs. Kristen Bell wore a striking one-shoulder gown made of black liquid silk satin. The gown featured a bodice adorned with multi-colored crystals and sequins. She completed her look with exquisite jewelry from Sabyasachi.
Dax Shepard complemented his wife by donning a classic Giorgio Armani tuxedo. His black one-button peak lapel tuxedo featured satin trims, paired with a white evening shirt and a stylish necktie.
Nominations and Achievements
- Kristen Bell: Nominated for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy Series for her role in Nobody Wants This.
- Dax Shepard: Nominated for Best Podcast for Armchair Expert.
This marks Bell’s third Golden Globe nomination, and her second for the role of L.A. podcaster Joanne. Last year, she lost the award to Jean Smart for her performance in Hacks.
Nobody Wants This also garnered two additional nominations, with Adam Brody nominated for Best Actor in a Comedy Series, and the show itself competing for Best Comedy Series.
A Landmark Moment for Dax Shepard
Dax Shepard’s nomination is particularly notable. It is his first Golden Globe nomination and the first year that Best Podcast is included as a category. Shepard’s podcast is up against notable competitors, such as Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy and the hosts of SmartLess.
In a playful exchange during a recent episode of Armchair Expert, Cher, who was guest on the show, shared amusing moments with Shepard. When asked about Bell, she remarked, “The truth is, I trust her.” This line reflected her confidence in Bell’s choices and highlighted the bond they share.
Recap of Their Previous Appearance

Bell dazzled in a two-piece outfit consisting of a strapless beaded bustier and a matching skirt, complemented by her sleek low bun and REZA jewelry.
The 83rd Annual Golden Globe Awards took place at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles and aired at 8 p.m. EST on CBS, streaming on Paramount+. Their appearances at both ceremonies reflect the couple’s strong presence in the entertainment industry.
