Three of Hollywood’s top funny ladies turned the Academy Awards into a stand-up stage Sunday with an opening monologue jam-packed with topical jokes.
Oscar hosts Regina Hall, Amy Schumer and Wanda Sykes didn’t hold back at the ceremony at Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, California, with a barrage of one-liners poking fun at nominated movies and issues within the film industry.
“This year, the Academy hired three women to host because it’s cheaper than hiring one man,” Schumer deadpanned.
