A room full of A-listers wasn't going to stop Sean Penn from smoking a cigarette during the 2026 Golden Globes. The infamous Cigfluencers Instagram account posted a photo of Penn, 65, puffing on a cigarette in The Beverly Hilton ballroom on Sunday, January 11. "Sean Penn smoking INSIDE the Golden Globes venue!?" they captioned the post. "Incredible stuff happening here." Kate Hudson could be seen interacting with Penn's One Battle After Another costar Leonardo DiCaprio in the photo. Penn didn't appear to be a part of the conversation, rather focused on inhaling his coveted nicotine.
