After spending a long time seemingly out of the game, Macaulay Culkin has re-entered the public eye with a bang recently.
That return continued last night with some hilarious live-tweeting of the Golden Globe awards at the expense of his brother.
Macaulay, 38, famously shot to stardom thanks to the success of the Home Alone movies - which also featured his younger brother Kieran as Kevin McAllister's bed-wetting cousin Fuller.

And last night 36-year-old Kieran was nominated for his role in Succession, a drama series from Jesse Armstrong of Peep Show fame.
However, Macaulay attempted to steal some of his brother's thunder by pretending, among other things, that he had never heard of the show and had no clue that his brother was even nominated for an award.
He started off with a nice easy one:
However, he then showed his younger sibling a bit of love by adding:
Nothing like a bit of brotherly love, eh? It didn't last though.
The next tweet was a picture of Happy Days and Arrested Development star Henry Winkler, who was nominated for his role in Barry. However, Macaulay had some fun at his (and Kieran's) expense:
Culkin's next effort was a thinly veiled attempt to increase his rapidly increasing social media popularity by using his brother to network with other stars:
Given that Lady Gaga is one of the most followed people on social media, you can't blame him for trying.
When the nominations for Best Supporting Performance were announced, Culkin decided to play dumb and pretend that he'd never even heard of his brother's show:
Aye, right.
Well, in the end, Kieran didn't win. The award was taken home by Ben Wishaw for his role in A Very English Scandal. That offered Macaulay one last chance to get a jibe in at his bro:
Given his return to presenting, acting (in a Google ad, but it's a start) and public life, perhaps Macaulay will even get himself invited to the actual ceremony next year.
