So much has happened in the past 24 hours that we cannot keep up with the pace. The 2017 Oscars happened this morning. It brought the dedicated films of 2016 nominated for the Academy Awards and featured some of the talented actors and legends in entertainment, all gathered in one night that would change the course of history.

Jimmy Kimmel hosted the event and easy to mention, it was one of the best performances of him. He kept the mood alive with his perfectly timed banter.
The highlight of the 2017 Oscars was nothing more than the mistake committed by Warren Beatty after he announced La La Land as Winner for the Best Picture award. He was corrected minutes after and the whole world went into shock.

It was a Steve Harvey moment all over again. In case you did not know, Steve Harvey committed the mistake of wrongly announcing the Winner of the Miss Universe contest.
People broke the Internet back then and people broke the Internet today once again.
Disgraceful of #Oscars staff to make it sounds like poor #WarrenBeatty‘s error. Shame on you, have some respect.

“I slept thru the #Oscars, how’d they go?”
“Well, #SteveHarvey and #Zapruder are trending.”

I still can’t believe Warren Beatty Steve Harvey’d the Oscars. Or that I’m using Steve Harvey as a verb.
