Will Smith won and lost at the Oscars last night. First he used his mouth to say F**cking” to defend his wife and then the smack that was heard around the world to Chris Rock. Tacky to say the least. “Be Alive” from the film “King Richard” brought Beyonce to the stage. Sweeping the Oscars in technical arena was the sci-fi hot “Dune”. Ariana DeBose looked stunning as she accepted her award for best actress in a supporting role for “West Side Story,” stating “There is indeed a place for us”. Regina Hall, Amy Schumer and Wanda Sykes brought the “woke” to the stage.
