“I am not afraid to go there, but it’s not me producing the Oscars.” Ultimately, the trio just wanted to make sure that both the stars in attendance and the audience watching at home have a good time. “To be honest, it’s like whoever gets drunk is gonna be the one that’s backstage. You know, the truth is, we’re in a pandemic.” After sending the lucky gentlemen off stage, the comedian introduced Jason Momoa and Josh Brolin and performed a “COVID pat-down” on the two presenters. With her four men onstage, Hall joked that it would be a “simple” and “typical” PCR test: “You’ll come backstage, take your mask off — if you have one — and your clothes. “Don’t worry, it’s only a few people, it’s totally random,” Hall said, before calling Bradley Cooper, Chalamet, Tyler Perry and Simu Liu to join her on stage . “ Javier Bardem … no, your test is fine, it says that you’re married — I mean, negative.”

As the monologue concluded, Sykes, who is a member of the LGBTQ community, said, “We’re gonna have a great night, and for you people in Florida, we’re gonna have a gay night.” The women then repeated the word “gay” a number of times. Said Sykes about Netflix’s The Power of the Dog, “I watched that movie three times, and I’m halfway through it.” “There was a lot of snubs this year: Rachel Zegler for West Side Story, Jennifer Hudson for Respect and Lady Gaga and Jared Leto for ‘House of Random Accents,'” she said.

Like where’s Sam Jackson and Jennifer Lewis in “When This Mo-fo Met That Mo-fo,” you know, or the sequel “Bitch, I said I love you.” Schumer: Regina, I mean, it’s not the time for that. Hall: And where’s his musical? Sykes: You know, there was a lot of snubs this year. (Among the people and movies she jabbed at: Aaron Sorkin, Nicole Kidman, and “King Richard.” He just got the Governor’s Award for his lifetime body of work. “We all get our moment together, and we get our moments alone.” Hall: I know. It had not been entirely clear before the show began how the three hosts would share time and responsibilities. The comic actresses Regina Hall, Amy Schumer and Wanda Sykes were not, as it turned out, the first three people viewers saw at the top of the telecast. Her quip was among the first of several in an opening monologue that toggled between all three women. It was a fast-paced avalanche of witty snipes, rapid-fire roasts and a sprinkle of Hollywood pomp and circumstance as the hosts began their evening-long quest to reverse the Oscars rating slide.
Regina Hall, Amy Schumer and Wanda Sykes aren't the first women to host the Academy Awards. But here's why their co-hosting gig is historic.
Kimmel, of course, has hosted the show twice and revealed to Sykes that he got paid a mere $15,000 for the high-profile gig: “And there’s one of me! We just want to have this night,’” Schumer said on “The Drew Barrymore Show” last week. Hall, Schumer and Sykes have said to “expect the unexpected,” which is hard to do with something as formulaic as Hollywood’s marquee event. “It’s not like I’m getting paid,” she quipped. “There is definitely pressure in one way to be like, ‘This is a vacation. “So if you see Amy and Regina out, you can just go, ‘Wanda’s drunk, she’s backstage — drunk.’” It’s a great opportunity to at least comment on a couple of things. “We’re really excited to celebrate film and make fun of people, too,” Hall recently told Variety. “I was like, ‘Do you think we’re going to have friends after?’ No, we’re going to. I have some jokes that highlight the current condition.” And it’s happening while war is still raging in Ukraine, so there will be plenty of sobering topics to touch on between all the industry thank-yous. She also appeared in Schumer’s 2017 comedy, “Snatched.” And how could we forget — as much as we’d like to — Anne Hathaway’s earnest, but widely panned, stint in 2011 with a fully checked-out James Franco?
The hosts joked about Leonardo DiCaprio and Space Jam 2 at the 94th Academy Awards, as well as alluding to the controversial 'don't say gay' bill passed in ...
“It was a controversial and difficult decision but I think we’ve moved on,” said Hall, as the lights went off in the Dolby theatre. The rest of the opening jokes were largely aimed at the nominated films. Gay, gay, gay!” Florida has passed a bill which will prevent LGBTQ+ issues from being discussed in classrooms.
