Meet the famous offspring who've helped usher in the Golden Globe winners at the annual awards show over the last 12 years.

Pierce Brosnan's youngest sons, Dylan and Paris Brosnan, were named ambassadors for the 2020 Golden Globes. While this was their first time on the big stage, they've both been working in the modeling industry for several years. ET's Lauren Zima spoke with Dylan and Paris about the advice their famous father offered them ahead of the awards show. 

"Be kind, take it all in and be compassionate," Paris said, recounting their father's advice for both their time at the Golden Globes and life in general. The 2020 Golden Globes also marked the first time brothers held the ambassador title at the annual awards show.

Just a week after Idris Elba was named People's Sexiest Man Alive, his daughter, Isan, was revealed as the 2019 Golden Globe Ambassador. "My heart stopped," Isan, then 16, told ET in 2018 of her reaction to being named Golden Globe Ambassador. "I was like, jumping and screaming and all over the house, like, 'Are you sure? Are you sure they picked me?' I was not even completely sure."

Dwayne Johnson's daughter was 16 when she became the 2018 Golden Globe Ambassador, the first year the honor was changed from its former title, Miss Golden Globe. "I've been lucky enough to grow up in a household with strong role models and feel so honored to represent the HFPA for its 75th anniversary," Garcia Johnson said in a statement at the time. "As the newly minted Golden Globe Ambassador, I hope to serve as a role model to young people everywhere and empower them to speak out on issues they are passionate about." Simone also shared with ET the advice her famous father gave her for the big nigjt. "The best piece of advice that my dad gave me was just to have and live in the moment," she noted. "I'm keeping that in the back of my mind with everything I do on this journey."

Their famous father gushed about the "surreal" news to ET in late 2016, saying, "I'm just along for the ride... I'm stunned that life has moved by so quickly, and my daughters turned out so wonderfully. I have to give [my wife] Jennifer all the credit."

"Man, I'm over the moon, man!" he gushed. "People don't understand, my daughter's always been cool… ain't never ask me for nothing." Corinne, then 21, was just as thrilled about the honor. "It feels great! I wanted to be Miss Golden Globe for so long and I didn't know how you go about it," she told ET at the time. "And then they told me that they wanted me to do it and I was just over the moon for an hour -- just pacing in my room [with] so much energy I didn't know what to do with it. I'm just happy it's out and everyone knows."

Kelsey Grammer's daughter, Greer Grammer, was 22 when she was crowned Miss Golden Globe. The Awkward actress, whose dad is a three-time Golden Globe winner, said she was "flattered to have been chosen" in a statement in December 2015. “It’s truly an honor to be included in this experience that so many incredible men and women have been a part of. I didn’t even tell my dad because I knew he’d tell everybody and it had to be a secret until the party," she said. "I’m so excited. It’s going to be a wonderful year and so much fun." She also revealed that she knew she wanted to follow in her father's acting footsteps since she was five.

"I am so grateful to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for naming me this year's Miss Golden Globe," she said in a statement in November 2013. "As a young actress who is just beginning my career, it is truly an honor to be a part of such a special night in film and television. I can only hope to continue the legacy and tradition of Miss Golden Globe by following in the footsteps of my predecessors." At the time, Sosie had appeared on her mom's show, The Closer; she made her acting debut in 2005's Loverboy.

It was a rainy day when Alfre Woodard accompanied her daughter, Mavis Spencer, to the 2010 Golden Globe Awards! It was sunnier when she was nominated in the fall of 2009, at which time the equestrienne showjumper said, “It means a lot to me as a young person to be a part of something with such a rich history. I know how my mom feels when she brings home a statue. And to hand someone a token of their accomplishments when they're elated will just be really cool. I have memories of my mom traipsing off to the Globes, but this year she's with me! And we're going to have so much fun.” Mavis was 18 when she received the honor. She had already appeared in Teen Vogue and InStyle and continued to model and study acting at Columbia University.

Already known simply for being the eldest daughter of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, Rumer Willis was also bit by the acting bug. Her best-known acting roles were in 2008's House Bunny and a recurring role on Empire, but she became a household name after winning Dancing With the Stars in 2015. That wasn't her only reality show stint; in 2019, she competed on the first season of The Masked Singer.
