Ben Stiller’s Hilarious Oscars Mishap Leaves Audience in Fits of Laughter!

BBG News

At the Oscars held at Hollywood’s Dolby Theatre on Sunday, Ben Stiller humorously feigned a stage accident during his presentation, leaving the audience in stitches.

Nick Offerman, known for his role in Parks and Recreation, presented him once, only to reintroduce him later when he didn’t appear as expected initially.

As assistance from a hidden elevator was provided, Ben, aged 59, started ascending towards the stage, but unfortunately, the machinery momentarily halted.

With roars of amusement from the crowd, Ben stood there with a stoic expression, his upper body alone visible due to an alleged lift malfunction.

At the gathering of famous personalities, the star from Tropic Thunder generated even more laughter by revealing the category he was presenting – the intriguing field of set and visual design (production design).

He quipped, “This profession requires precision because even a small mistake could lead to losing the viewers’ trust and embarrassing the actors.

During his talk, he struggled to exit the elevator with some discomfort and stumbled a bit as he made his way onto the stage.

After reaching his designated spot, Ben handed over the Oscar for exceptional production design to Nathan Crowley and Lee Sandales, recognizing their work on Wicked.

2021’s Oscars are being hosted by popular former late-night talk show host, Conan O’Brien, marking his debut as the emcee of the event.

Following the announcement of his appointment, the modestly humble comedian quipped, “I took on this hosting gig just so I’d get an invitation.

Emilia Pérez, the musical featuring Selena Gomez, Zoe Saldana, and Karla Sofia Gascon in Spanish, has received a total of 13 nominations, with a notable one being for Best Picture.

Karla has been chosen as a candidate for the Best Actress award, recognizing her outstanding portrayal of a cartel leader feigning death and undergoing a transformation into a woman.

The resurgence of Karla’s old tweets, containing contentious comments about George Floyd and Islam, significantly impacted her Oscar campaign by causing controversy.

Zoe has been nominated as well for Best Supporting Actress, while Jacques Audriard is also contending for Best Director, both for their contributions to the film.

The film ‘The Brutalist,’ featuring Adrien Brody portraying a Hungarian Jewish Holocaust survivor who becomes an architect in postwar America, trails Emilia Perez by 10 nominations.

Adrien has been nominated for the title of Best Actor, while Brady Corbet is up for Best Director, Guy Pearce is also a nominee in the category of Best Supporting Actor, and Felicity Jones is nominated for Best Supporting Actress.

In the awards category, both “Wicked” and “The Brutalist” have received ten nominations each, among which are the categories of ‘Best Picture’, ‘Best Actress’ (won by Cynthia Erivo), and ‘Best Supporting Actress’ (nominated for Ariana Grande).

Hey there! As a lifestyle enthusiast, I’m excited to share that the vibrant and engaging film “Anora,” which won the Palme d’Or at last year’s Cannes Film Festival, is now contending for the prestigious Best Picture award. Don’t miss out on this cinematic gem!

The main actress, Mikey Madison, is nominated for Best Actress for her portrayal of a New York stripper, while the Russian actor, Yura Borisov, is also nominated for Best Supporting Actor.

Among the other films nominated for Best Picture are A Complete Unknown, a Bob Dylan biopic, and it features Timothée Chalamet, who’s also vying for the Best Actor award.

In addition to the drama “Conclave,” which focuses on the election of a new Pope, the science fiction continuation “Dune: Chapter Two” and the Brazilian political movie titled “I’m Still Here” are all nominated for the Best Picture award.

Indeed, the acclaimed horror film from last year, The Substance, has garnered attention. Notably, its star, Demi Moore, received a nomination for best actress – marking a first in her illustrious and glamour-filled career.

Initially, I had high hopes of taking home the Best Actor award, but that changed unexpectedly when Timothée claimed the Screen Actors Guild Award last weekend. This surprising turn has left many predictors, including myself, reconsidering their forecasts.

The “Best Actress” award seems less clear-cut this year, as there are predictions suggesting that Demi might take it following the overwhelming praise she garnered for her impressive return to acting in The Substance.

It appears that Kieran Culkin is strongly favored to take home the Best Supporting Actor award for the film “A Real Pain,” since he’s been winning at various award ceremonies thus far, with his co-star Jesse Eisenberg being the writer and director of the movie.

Zoe has earned several victories in the ‘Best Supporting Actress’ category at various award ceremonies, with competitors such as Ariana Grande as Glinda in Wicked and Monica Barbaro as Joan Baez in A Complete Unknown.

At the Directors Guild of America Awards and the Producers Guild of America Awards, Anora was named the best picture winner. These two awards are often seen as reliable indicators for the Oscars, especially when considered together.
