The 95th Oscars ceremony is underway, and host Jimmy Kimmel couldn't resist making a joke about the infamous slap that was heard around the world last year during his opening monologue 👀
, presenter Jimmy mentioned the slap in front of the packed out crowd, at LA’s Dolby Theatre.
The 55-year-old said: ‘Five Irish actors are nominated tonight, which meant the odds of another fight onstage just went way up.’ In a second quip, he added: ‘We want you to have fun, we want you to be safe and we want me to be safe.’‘If any person in this theatre commits an act of violence, you will be awarded best actor and be allowed to give a 19-minute speech.
‘Seriously, the Academy has a crisis team in place. If anything unpredictable or violent happens during the ceremony, just do what you did last year – nothing.As the camera panned to the star-studded audience, Jimmy then referenced a string of characters who could possibly protect him from danger – including Michael B Jordan’s Adonis Creed – ‘if you want to come up here and get jiggy with it’.
