Leonardo DiCaprio jokes while getting his Oscar engraved

On Facebook, 24 million people engaged in 67 million interactions related to the Oscars, with DiCaprio’s win once again notching the most talked-about moment, according to Facebook figures.

It was the actor’s sixth Oscar nomination overall, following nods in previous years for What’s Eating Gilbert Grape, The Aviator, Blood Diamond, and The Wolf of Wall Street. The win came after almost 22 years of waiting for Leonardo DiCaprio.

“The ratings for the three and a half hour broadcast was down 5 percent from last year’s 24.6 overnight rating and would give the awards its lowest overnight rating in eight years”. The least-watched Academy Awards show since Nielsen began tracking Oscars in 1974 came in 2008 when about 32 million Americans tuned in.

He said: “After Chris Rock f***ed my night up talking about my girl Jada, who took the initiative to stand up and make a difference, I’m smiling again because of LEO!”

He joked that “unemployed people” had asked him to boycott the show, “The big question: Why this Oscars?”. No, no black nominees, you know, and people are like ‘Chris, you should boycott. It’s like, “We like you Rhonda, but you’re not a Kappa”. If anything near the billion people everyone says watch the Oscars really did, it wasn’t because of how invested they all were in the fate of Finding Neverland, Rock noted.

After the show was over, Irmelin told us how Leonardo was feeling after finally getting a taste of Oscar gold.

Continuing through the night, Chris Rock presented a spoof video after talking about the struggle black actors have finding opportunity.

The 41-year-old “Revenant” star got his first Oscar nod in 1994 at the age of 19 for his supporting role in “What’s Eating Gilbert Grape”. Mad Max: Fury Road took home the most awards with six, although it was shut out of the major awards.

Spotlight – a drama about the Boston Globe’s exposé on sexual abuse in the Catholic church won the coveted Best Picture award.
