Murphy's appearance will add another big name
to the Jan. 10 lineup as organizers try to rebound from a
diversity and ethics scandal.
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the group that votes on
the Golden Globes, said it would celebrate Murphy's
contributions to television with its fourth Carol Burnett Award.
Previous honorees were Burnett, Ellen DeGeneres and Norman Lear.
Murphy, 57, won fans for his musical TV series "Glee" from 2009
to 2015. His other credits include anthology series "American
Horror Story," drama series "9-1-1" and "Pose," a show that
broke ground with a large transgender cast.
The HFPA also said this week it would honor comedian Eddie
Murphy with the Cecil B. DeMille award, a lifetime achievement
award for film work, at the January ceremony.
