On January 26, we were invited to attend the 31st Golden Globes. I’d been nominated for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy Television Series, and The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour was up for Best Musical or Comedy Series. Sonny and I decided not to attend. I stayed home and had my nails done instead. I wasn’t in the mood to celebrate, and Carol Burnett had won the title several times before, so I was convinced she’d walk away with the award this time too. As I was explaining to my manicurist why I wasn’t going to win, I heard the announcer read off my name. I was gobsmacked by the irony of it.
