Yesterday, Colman Domingo was nominated for his second Oscar, this time for Sing Sing. However, during a commercial break, he switched to dance dance mode.
The actor, who should’ve won, jumped up on stage and instructed the audience to get up and dance with him to Frankie Beverly’s Before I Let Go. And they did.
Because if you see a man in an Armani black suit with a bright red jacket being a ringmaster, you follow along like a good audience. Things we learned from The Greatest Showman, which was also robbed of Oscars.
Conan O’Brien hosted the Oscars tonight. And he made a commercial to remind us to watch movies where they should be watched: in movie theaters and not at home on a smaller screen.
He is 100% correct. I saw Wicked, Inside Out 2, and Sing Sing in a darkened movie house, and I loved them! I watched Emilia Pérez and Conclave on my tablet and shut them both off before they ended.
There is just something magical about going to the theater. Even the worst movie still has some redeeming qualities there. At home, I can’t find any.
Now, if only they could lower the price of a ticket, that would really help.
Daryl Hannah was a surprise presenter at tonight’s Oscars, and the actress looks phenomenal.
The 64-year-old looks better now than when she starred in Splash and Crazy People in the ’80s. Not that she wasn’t gorgeous back then. But she is aging beautifully. That is why I can’t believe that she will be a senior citizen by the end of the year.
Someone needs to give her a movie as soon as possible because we need her back on the big screen.
In 2003, Adrien Brody won the Best Actor Oscar for The Pianist. He was so excited about the win that he planted a huge kiss on presenter Halle Berry’s lips.
The actress, who won Best Actress the year beforehand, has talked about how unhappy she was about that kiss throughout the years.
Now, 22 years later, Berry, who is presenting again this year, saw Brody, who is nominated for the Brutalist, on the red carpet. What did she do? She pushed his girlfriend, Georgina Chapman, out of the way and gave him a huge kiss on his lips.
How did he feel? He loved it! What man wouldn’t?
Oh, and Berry apologized to Chapman, who also loved it.
UPDATE: Brody won his second Oscar. And did not give presenter, Cillian Murphy, on the lips! He learned his lesson.
