The 2022 Oscars are done and dusted and woof, what a day it’s been.
This year’s ceremony has certainly been one to remember for a variety of reasons.
First of all, we had two records broken as Ariana DeBose became the first openly queer woman to win an acting Oscar for her role in West Side Story.
Next up CODA star Troy Kotsur became the first Deaf man to win an Oscar.
And, of course, there was that whole Will Smith and Chris Rock barney.
If the drama caused by the latter has sent you into a tailspin and you’re still struggling to catch your breath, have a lie down with a cold compress and peep the full list of winners. Ya know, the real reason why we’re here today:
