Jason Sudeikis explained the origin of his dyed hooded coat and offered his reaction to the gesture of fellow nominee Don Cheadle during the acceptance speech by the star of “Ted Lasso” after Sudeikis won for lead in a TV musical or comedy series .
The pastel sweatshirt by Sudeikis caught the attention of Globes observers on Sunday as a fashion choice that reflects the days of COVID. Speaking to reporters backstage, Sudeikis explained that the sweatshirt with the “Forward Space” logo came from his sister’s dance studio and training space in New York City.
“I believe in the product as much as in the message,” said Sudeikis. “I I had a multitude of sweatshirts with a multitude of things that I believe in and support. This seems the most appropriate. “
The star of Apple’s comedy series about an American coach who became a UK football team remained unmoved during his backstage comments. When pressed about the casual nature of his Global outfits, Sudeikis insisted that he was not a lower class pioneer.
“You need to look back at Audrey Hepburn for ‘Funny Face’. She also wore a sweatshirt, ”he joked.
Sudeikis was also pressured over the gesture by Showtime’s “Black Monday” star Cheadle, while Sudeikis was giving his acceptance comments on the live stream. Sudeikis made it clear that he had no problems with Cheadle’s movement.
“This is just love in Kansas City,” he said of the actor’s hometown. “He knew i would hear it. ONE many people are unaware that he is an excellent stage manager, as well as an icon of American acting. “
Sudeikis gave no clue as to plans for the second season of the quirky comedy he co-created with Bill Lawrence, Joe Kelly and Brendan Hunt. The only constant he would recognize? “The mustache.”
