I didn't see this [abhor award shows] but I heard about it .... *promote first time for everything, right?

Promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued Sunday, February 26th, 2017 10:10pm PST - promote requested by PlayhousePals.

This is what happens when you let people with so much plastic surgery it looks like they have a perpetual Clint Eastwood squint, read out an award letter.

*fail *cinema

Adding video to channels (Cinema, Fail) - requested by Mordhaus.

Dunno. Sounds like they were given the wrong envelope.

So that's definitely the case, the envelope contained the letter for best actress
Emma Stone - La La Land

That is why Warren Beatty did a triple take on opening the envelope, but there was a name of a movie there so he decided to read it out. Or actually, he had his co-host read it out....

(but het later took responsibility for his part, all that I type is in the clip)

So the accountants messed up big time. Like as someone would say 'huge'.
Guess it's just more of Hollywood accounting...

I love that it is La La Land producer Jordan Horowitz (the guy with the beard, a name I had to look up), who has to take charge and correct the situation, while the Academy staff is in complete shock on stage....

Also: Missed opportunity, the La La Land people should have said 'it was an honor just being nominated'....

Wait, Zootopia DIDN'T win Best Picture?!

And I still haven't seen it.

I see no reason they can't have somebody with PWC read the envelope contents immediately before handing it to the presenter before they enter the stage to verify and prevent something like this. And also print the winner in OMG HUGE font so somebody can't mix up the actor/movie.

Exactly - the PwC folks know the winners anyway.

Yoink!
