PwC accountants blamed for Oscar blunder will not work ceremony again
“Moonlight” walked away with best picture honoUrs at the end of the 89th Academy Awards ceremony in Hollywood. I mean, we hate to see people disappointed, but the good news is, we got to see some extra speeches.
Representatives for the academy didn’t immediately comment Tuesday. “That’s why I took such a long look at Faye and at you; I wasn’t trying to be amusing”, he said. “There wasn’t much in terms of parties last night”.
Viewers captured the two actors’ faces as they learned the true victor of the Oscar, and it seems they both were momentarily shocked (as they should be), especially Gosling, who broke down in laughter at the huge mix-up. “I think you guys should keep it anyway”.
Hot favourite for best picture, the musical La La Land, won six Oscars – best director for Damien Chazelle, best actress for Emma Stone plus best cinematography, production design, score and original song for City of Stars.
In the now-deleted tweet, Cullinan shared a photo of the Best Actress victor smiling while holding her award backstage.
She told The Daily Telegraph newspaper: “It was very quick; I can’t talk about it”. “My dad died in 2006 and my mom is still alive”.
Jimmy Kimmel joked that he knew he would mess up the hosting. “Let’s keep that illusion going”, he said, in the Dolby’s lobby during a break from the telecast. “And for the next four years, we will not leave you alone, we will not forget you”. “It will be the most romantic film to win best picture since Titanic and Slumdog Millionaire“, he added. Affleck denied the allegations which were settled out of court.
Viola Davis, meanwhile, won her first Oscar for her supporting roles in Fences. “I couldn’t be happier”.
The two PricewaterhouseCoopers accountants involved with the Best Picture mixup at the Oscars will not work the award show again.
Emma Stone won the Best Actress Award for La La Land and Casey Affleck took home the award for Best Actor for Manchester By The Sea.
E! reported that Warren Beatty was handed the wrong envelope and showed a close-up shot of the envelope labeled as such.
‘And then the second we realized that we notified the appropriate parties and corrected the mistake’. “It was an imperfect situation, and it was an imperfect statement that didn’t come out the right way”, he said the next day. “But it is what it is”. The previous Academy Awards have been labeled racist and partial but this year the Academy nominated many people of coloured origins and stuck to the diktat that if they deserved then they will get a nomination. “Remember a year ago when it seemed like the Oscars were racist?” Director Barry Jenkins and many cast members wore pins symbolizing unity, while Jenkins spoke of his disappointment over the divisions in society that the election had exposed.
