A Brit from the back streets of reading, Ricky who made his fame by taking the mickey, sensationally moonwalked his way down the red carpet by kicking celebrities into touch.
Stars like Robbie Williams and Katie Price have spent the whole of 
their careers trying to gain fame across the pond and sensationally flopped.
But in just a few hours Gervais managed it; he went from fat but funny man to the top search on Google.
Whoever you are, it takes an enormous amount of talent to outshine stars such as Angelina Jolie, Robert De Niro and Johnny Depp.
These icons have been isolated and pampered on their pedestals for far too long now, they have been hailed by the media and American culture has slurped up all the hype.
Hollywood is a dream-land full of famous faces and luxurious places, paralleled with botox, breast implants and flashy cars - in many ways it sums up the American dream.
But Gervais, known in that circle as the tubby crude Brit, was catapulted to stardom and will now be immortalised in the US for the way he set the place alight at the Golden Globe awards ceremony.
The man is a genius.
His comments included;
On the film 'I Love You Phillip Morris' - “Two heterosexual actors pretending to be gay. Sort of the complete opposite of some famous Scientologists then. My lawyers helped me with the wording of that joke.”
On Charlie Sheen - “It's going to be a night of partying and heavy drinking – or as Charlie Sheen calls it, breakfast.”
On Bruce Willis – Gervais introduced him as Ashton Kutcher's dad
On the Sex and the City cast - “Girls we know how old you are. I saw one of you in an episode of Bonanza.”
