Senator Elizabeth Warren loves Oprah Winfrey for sure, but it's apparent she's not ready to throw her support behind O for a 2020 Presidential run.

We got the Massachusetts Senator Monday at Reagan National Airport in D.C. and gave her several openings to echo the sentiment held by a number of people after Oprah's historic Golden Globes speech, but she wouldn't go there.

Oprah Winfrey's stirring speech at the Golden Globes may have been a precursor for a presidential run in 2020 ... at least that's the hope of some famous folks who watched and listened -- and her longtime companion says she's in.

O's best bud, Gayle King, is clearly down for it, with an asterisk. Ditto Christian Slater, Laurence Fishburne, Andy Samberg, Geoff Stults and Eric McCormack.

Stedman went way further and said O would "absolutely do it" and now it's up to the people.

Oprah has made it clear in the past ... she has no interest in politics, but people change.

Kumail Nanjiani's movie, "The Big Sick," wasn't a Golden Globes winner, but he was still feeling sentimental about the project Monday morning ... thanks to one family memento.

Kumail shared a shot of his phone number scribbled on the back of a hospital visitor pass. It's the pass his mother-in-law used when Kumail's wife, Emily V. Gordon, was sick in the hospital. If you haven't seen the movie, it's essentially the premise of the entire thing since the hospitalization is a catalyst for them getting back together.

It also took place in Chicago ... hence the 773 area code.

The flick came out last year to critical acclaim, but Kumail says Emily's mom only just found the pass.

He also added, "Certain objects have the power to pull you back. Wow."

7:57 AM PT -- The network just released a statement about the tweet, saying, "Yesterday a tweet about the Golden Globes and Oprah Winfrey was sent by a third party agency for NBC Entertainment in real time during the broadcast. It is in reference to a joke made during the monologue and not meant to be a political statement. We have since removed the tweet."

Oprah's potential run for President is already on Trump's radar, and it's pissing him off ... Donald Trump Jr., that is.

The eldest son of POTUS is blasting NBC for gushing over Oprah Sunday night, and referring to her as "OUR future president." The network tweeted the comment shortly after Oprah's rousing speech at the Golden Globes, which aired on NBC.

Donald Jr. says, "In case anyone had any doubts about where the media stands this should take care of it. The bias against @realDonaldTrump is now so obvious they have simply given up hiding it."

Trump Jr. added, "Can you trust anything they say at this point? Americans see the truth in job #s & in their wallets!" His rant comes on the heels of Steadman Graham saying O would "absolutely" run for President in 2020, if the people convinced her.

Prez Trump has not reacted. Yet.

Tonya Harding and director Tommy Wiseau walk into a Golden Globes party ... nope, not the start of a one-liner, but something that actually happened.

The duo took this pic at a party Sunday, after the award show where both were thanked by actors who portrayed them in movies about their lives.

James Franco invited Tommy onstage after winning best actor in a comedy for his role in "The Disaster Artist" ... a movie based on Tommy making "The Room" -- largely considered the best worst movie ever made.

Kinda funny ... Tommy tried grabbing the mic as James started his thank-you speech.

Not to be outdone, Tonya also got a shout-out from Allison Janney after she won best supporting actress for playing Tonya's mom in "I, Tonya." See ... well deserved.

Aziz Ansari didn't settle for winning a Golden Globe, he immediately followed that up with another trophy -- a fresh bag of In-N-Out!

The "Master of None" star was double-fisting Sunday night -- his statuette in one hand, and his bag of burgers and fries in the other. He gave them equal billing, btw, holding up both at the same time for photogs as he and co-star Eric Wareheim strolled into the after-party at Poppy.

Gotta love their style!

Liev Schreiber knows the pressure points to make an airline find a passenger's lost luggage ... go on national TV and do a little shaming!!!

Delta Airlines has found the piece of luggage that never showed up at LAX ... a piece of luggage that clearly had significance to the "Ray Donovan" star.

Liev revealed his common plight during the red carpet pre-show on NBC, making it clear he'd do just about anything if Delta could find the bag. A Delta official tells TMZ, the airline worked directly with Liev and the bag was personally delivered to him overnight.

Liev said on social media he bought a really expensive bathing suit to go with his winter sweater to recover from the loss ... pretty funny.

It sounds like the bag contained his tux for the show and he got a new one in L.A.

Mariah Carey had a huge "oops" moment at the Golden Globes ... and no one was more understanding than Meryl Streep.

We got Mariah leaving Poppy in WeHo Sunday night and asked her about stealing Meryl's seat at one point during the show ... plopping down next to Steven Spielberg before realizing what she had just done.

Mariah felt terrible about it right after ... apologizing profusely. And it's obvious she still felt bad way after the show ended.

You know it's a movement when Oprah rocks the house with an historically powerful speech about #MeToo at the Golden Globe Awards ... which it is, 'cause she did.

Oprah delivered one hell of an acceptance speech after receiving the Cecil B. DeMille Award -- with O being the first black woman to ever receive the honor ... a milestone in itself.

She touched on everything from race to gender inequality and lots of stuff in between -- but it wasn't until she rounded out her comments with a take on #MeToo that everyone got on their feet in applause.

Trying to explain this one won't do it justice ... ya really just gotta hear it for yourself.

This year's Golden Globes had an air of heaviness around it -- with the Time's Up blackout, and #MeToo ... but there were also moments of joy.

Lots of folks were having a great time ... Oprah, Nicole Kidman, Jessica Chastain, Halle Berry, Eva Longoria, Mariah Carey, Salma Hayek, Sarah Jessica Parker ... and many more.

The guys got in on the grins, too -- Nick Jonas, Neil Patrick Harris, James Franco, Hugh Jackman, and Ricky Martin all seemed pretty chummy at the show.

Seth Meyers came out swinging against Harvey Weinstein and Kevin Spacey in a blistering opening monologue at the Golden Globes ... and he didn't pull any punches.

Meyers -- who's this year's host -- threw out two jokes aimed at the disgraced movie producer and actor back-to-back Sunday inside the Beverly Hilton hotel.

He said of Weinstein - the "elephant not in the room" -- "Harvey Weinstein isn't here tonight because, well, I've heard rumors he's crazy and difficult to work with. But don't worry, he'll be back in 20 years when he becomes the first person ever booed during the In Memoriam."

Meyers followed up right away with a jab at Spacey, saying ... "Well, despite everything that happened this year, the show goes on. For example, I was happy to hear they're going to do another season of 'House of Cards' ... is Christopher Plummer available for that, too?"

He also mocked Spacey's Southern accent in the show, adding ... "Oh, is that too mean? To Kevin Spacey?"

We're probably in for a long night.

The Golden Globes was a sea of black Sunday -- except for some speckles of red and white ... from a few ladies who apparently didn't get the memo.

The only women who appeared not to wear black in solidarity with the Time's Up and #MeToo movement were German fashion model Barbara Meier and actress Blanca Blanco.

Meier rocked a beige floral gown, and Blanco wore a revealing red dress -- reminiscent to her even more revealing outfit from last year's Globes.

They might not immediately stand out as Hollywood heavyweights -- Meier was a winner on "Germany's Next Top Model" ... and Blanco has starred in flicks like "Showgirls 2" and "Bermuda Tentacles."

The Prez of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, Meher Tatna, also did not wear black to the show.

Debra Messing was the first actress in the Time's Up movement to take a swipe at E! on the red carpet for the Golden Globes ... calling them out for their apparent pay disparity.

Debra was being interviewed Sunday by E! host Giuliana Rancic, at which point Debra says ... "I was so shocked to hear that E! doesn't believe in paying their female co-hosts the same as their male co-hosts."

She goes on ... "I mean, I miss Catt Sadler. And so, we stand with her."

It was an awkward interaction, especially since Giuliana did not directly address Debra's gripe about Catt -- who recently revealed that she left E! after discovering her male counterpart, Jason Kennedy, had been paid nearly double her salary for several years.

As we reported ... these interviews are all live and unvetted. Clearly, anything goes.

Lots of women in Hollywood are showing up in solidarity for the 75th Golden Globe Awards -- dressed in all black ... and appearing with activists, including the founder of #MeToo.

Scores of actresses and their guests left their hotels for the Beverly Hilton hotel draped in a variety of black dresses and outfits.

Some big actresses have formed the activist group, Time's Up, and penned an open letter. Among them ... Meryl Streep, Reese Witherspoon, Debra Messing, Shonda Rhimes, Emma Stone, Charlize Theron, Sarah Jessica Parker and Michelle Williams, who brought #MeToo founder Tarana Burke as her guest.

The blackout was staged as a protest of sorts, but it's also an effort to raise money for a legal defense fund for victims of sexual misconduct in the workplace. As of Sunday, the group had already raised upwards of $15 million, with a goal of at least $16 mil.

The Golden Globes solidarity movement for Sunday night's show is clearly strong ... but judging from last year, wearing black to the Globes is also simply a fashion statement embraced by a bunch of stars.

Check out the gallery from the 2017 Golden Globes ... black was the preferred color for Amy Adams, Winona Ryder, Meryl Streep, Heidi Klum, Jessica Biel, Mandy Moore, Kristen Bell, Octavia Spencer and many others.

The Golden Globes isn't as formal as some of the other awards shows, and black has been a default color.

Evan Rachel Wood says it's great that people want to wear black to the Golden Globes, and those who don't want to ... well that's great, too.

We got the "Westworld" star at LAX Friday and asked her about actors who will wear black in support of Hollywood's anti-sexual harassment movement. Evan's totally on board ... but she also supports anyone who has other ways of protesting.

ERW's not just talk. Check it out ... she offers a specific way to protest, and if anyone actually plays it out Sunday, get ready for headlines!
