Was anyone as repulsed as I was after watching the Oscars last Sunday? Right at the outset, the emcee compared Jada’s boycott of the show to his not getting into Rihanna’s (I don’t even know who she is) panties because he wasn’t invited. The song and dance routine for “Fifty Shades of Grey” was quasi-pornographic at best and the profanity that had to be bleeped during the show fit right in. The only reasonably good part was the introductory monologue for the Documentary Short awards which focused on the pretentiousness and hypocrisy of the millionaire members of the audience.
