Leonardo DiCaprio Uses Oscars Speech To Call For Climate Action

News, when DiCaprio was named best actor for his role in The Revenant, there were over 440,000 tweets per minute after last year’s best actress victor, Julianne Moore, read the results.

DiCaprio had been nominated four times previously for an Oscar over a career spanning 25 years.

But Larson is just beaming as she walks arm-in-arm with last year’s best actor victor Eddie Redmayne, clutching her statue for “Room”.

But most Oscar anticipation surrounded the controversy over the lack of racial diversity among nominees and calls to boycott the event.

On Twitter, many celebrities – including one past Oscars host – raved about Rock’s monologue. What he did was seize the moment and tackle climate change in front of millions of people watching the Academy Awards, calling it ‘the most existential crisis our civilization has ever known’. You realise, if they nominated hosts I wouldn’t even get this job.

Nominees were asked beforehand to fill out a form with all the people they would like to thank so a ticker would scroll on the bottom of the screen with all of their “Thank you’s”. You got to figure that it happened in the ’50s in the ’60s, you know in the ’60s one of those years Sidney [Poitier] didn’t put out a movie. “Jada said she’s not coming. We had real things to protest; you know, we’re too busy being raped and lynched to care about who won best cinematographer”, Chris Rock said.

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!”

“This film gave a voice to survivors, and this Oscar amplifies that voice, which we hope can become a choir that will resonate all the way to the Vatican”, said producer Michael Sugar. We got a Black Rocky.

Back to the adorableness: Kate Winslet teared up as her Titanic costar finally won an Oscar! The supporting actor in a supporting role went to mark Rylance (Bridge of Spies).

Addressing why this year had attracted so much criticism, he explained: “Now the thing is, while we’re protesting, the big questions is why this Oscars, why this Oscars?”

The first award of the evening went to the film “Spotlight” for Best Original Screenplay.
