James Corden performs an Ode to La La Land’s Oscar disaster

In the live telecast to the world on Sunday, the Oscar night’s biggest victor “La La Land” was announced as the best picture by “Bonnie and Clyde” actors Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway. Another envelope appeared and was opened.

“He said: “[It] is unusual, but you figure, ‘Well, the host will go onstage and clear this up.’ And then I remembered, ‘Oh! “La La Land” producer then showed the card that revealed “Moonlight” as the victor. The firm, formerly known as PricewaterhouseCoopers, was skewered on social media following the Oscars telecast, flinging the accountants that usually fade into the background at the awards shows into the spotlight. We each have a full set.

“We clearly made a mistake and once the mistake was made we corrected it and owned up to it, ” Tim Ryan, the U.S chairman of the accounting firm, told Variety. Jimmy started by showing a clip of Bonnie & Clyde stars Warren Beatty, 79, and Faye Dunaway, 76, presenting the award – incorrectly.

“We stand on opposite sides of the stage, right-off screen, for the entire evening, and we each hand the respective envelope to the presenter”. Kimmel said Streep had “stood the test of time for her many uninspiring and overrated performances” and “phoned it in for more than 50 films”. The real victor for the title was announced moments later was ‘Moonlight’. They handled it very well.

At Sunday’s 89th Academy Awards, La La Land was wrongly announced as Best picture victor by presenters Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.

“We have spent last night and today investigating the circumstances, and will determine what actions are appropriate going forward”. We sincerely apologise to Warren Beatty, Faye Dunaway, Jimmy Kimmel, ABC and the Academy, none of whom was at fault for last night’s errors. About the missed opportunity, Barry Jenkins said that “the moment was messy but kind of gorgeous”.

This speech, if given the chance would have been, if not the best then one of the bests of the night. According to a report in USA Today the Oscars had record audiences in 1998 when 55 million people watched as “Titanic” won best picture. “To make matters worse, while they were up on stage Ryan Gosling had to explain jazz to them”.
