Twitter’s take on ‘Oscar’s botch’

Author: Web Desk

Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty managed to shock the entire hall present at the Oscars with their mistaken announcement, that ‘La La Land’ had won the Best Picture award, whereas, the actual winner was ‘Moonlight’.

Beatty and Dunaway were handed the wrong envelop in which it was written ‘Emma Stone for La La Land’. While the ‘La La Land’ team reached for the stage to accept their award and started giving their acceptance speech, the authority came forward to inform them that they had the wrong envelop and that ‘Moonlight’ had won the Oscars.

The sudden and unexpected revelation received a massive outburst from the audience, where the ‘Moonlight’ team embraced one another and cried while audience gave a standing ovation. Most of the celebrities just stood in a shock, trying to contemplate that ‘what just happened?’

Twitter was flooded with tweets by both fans and the celebrities however, seeing celebrities’ reaction to such a blunder at the Oscar was beyond amusing.

Ellen DeGeneres tweeted, “Nothing like live TV. Congrats to Moonlight! And to La La Land for such a gracious reaction. #Oscars.”

Regina King wrote, “Warren Beatty had alternative facts. Congrats Moonlight well deserved!”

Neil Patrick Harris’s reaction was very much like the reaction of every ordinary people out there that was held in confusion. “What the what what?? What just happened?!? How did Emma Stone’s name get in a second envelope? Weirdest. Ending. Ever”, he wrote.

Indeed, the ending was quite dramatic and fascinating.

Ryan Seacrest expressed his sentiment, stating, “Deserved win by the Moonlight team. Gracious concession by the La La Land team. wtf just happened for everyone else#Oscars. “

Last but not the least, Steve Harvey didn’t miss the opportunity to crack his fans with his input. He had been in a similar situation when he mistakenly announced the wrong participant as the winner for ‘Miss Universe’.

“Call me Warren Beatty. I can help you get through this! #Oscars”, Harvey tweeted. Oscar 2017 has left an everlasting effect on both the celebrities and the fans.
