The 91st Academy Awards took place on Sunday night and it was the first time in thirty years without a host, all thanks to Kevin Hart. The night had its red carpet moments, but the ceremony itself brought in a whirlwind of surprises as Green Book took home Best Picture, to everyone’s chagrin.
Olivia Colman beat favourite Glenn Close to win Best Actress. Bohemian Rhapsody earned the most Oscars overall, with four, including Best Actor for Rami Malek, who played Queen frontman Freddie Mercury. The movie has come under fire for its treatment of Mercury’s sexuality.
Black Panther took home Best Original Score and Best Costumes, and Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper channelled back their respective roles in Ally and Jack and gave a tingly, intimate performance of Shallow. Here’s the full list of winners:
