00:00The Oscars were filled with hilarious moments,

00:03emotional acceptance speeches, and some incredible performances.

00:10Hey guys, it's Allie for Hollywood Life with your Oscar night recap.

00:14The event kicked off with an incredible performance

00:17of the nominated song Be Alive by Beyonce from the film King Richard.

00:21The songstress performed live from a tennis court in the Williams sisters' hometown of Compton

00:26and was joined by her daughter Blue Ivy clad in a tennis ball yellow outfit.

00:30It was such a moving and beautiful performance. Great way to start the night.

00:34The show was of course hosted by Amy Schumer, Regina Hall, and Wanda Sykes,

00:38and the trio of female comedians kept the laughs coming throughout the night.

00:42Amy Schumer went on to call out her friend Jennifer Lawrence for gaining some weight this year,

00:46referring to her pregnancy, as well as praising Leonardo DiCaprio for his environmental work,

00:51joking that he will be leaving the world a better place for his girlfriends who

00:55are notoriously younger than him. Later in the show, Regina Hall brought her own laughs when she

01:00called up some of Hollywood's most eligible bachelors to the stage and then gave presenters

01:05Josh Brolin and Jason Momoa a pretty intense pat down.

01:09Some history was made during this year's Oscars by the Ariana DuBose taking home the Oscar for

01:14best supporting actress for her portrayal of Anita in West Side Story,

01:18making her the first openly gay woman and Afro-Latina to win an acting Oscar.

01:22Fan favorite Troy Kotzer later was awarded the Oscar for best supporting actor for CODA and

01:27made history as the first ever deaf actor to be nominated and win an Academy Award.

01:32The moment was incredibly emotional while the audience waved their hands

01:35as Troy took the stage, which is the ASL sign for applause.

01:39The cast of Encanto, joined by Megan Thee Stallion, Louis Fonzie, and Becky G,

01:43gave an electrifying rendition of We Don't Talk About Bruno toward the end of the show.

01:48The cast of the Oscar-nominated Disney movie opened up the performance and then

01:52Megan Thee Stallion took it away with a remix of her own, freestyling about Oscar night,

01:56hyping up Zendaya, and showing off her gold Versace gown.

02:00It was truly a highlight.

02:02Things got a little crazy towards the end of the night.

02:05It all started when Chris Rock came out on stage to present an award,

02:10and while he was standing in front of the audience,

02:12he took a random dig at Jada Pinkett Smith in her bald head and army green dress.

02:18At first, Will and Jada, who sat close to the stage, both laughed, but within a matter of

02:22seconds, Will was up on stage walking towards Chris. And once they came face to face,

02:27Will seemingly slapped the comedian. As Will went to exit the stage, Chris said,

02:32Wow, Will Smith just smacked the crap out of me. When Will returned to his seat,

02:36he continued to yell, Keep my wife's name out of your effing mouth. Chris quickly said,

02:40I'm going to, okay, but most of the exchange was bleeped out of the live telecast on US

02:45television screens. We're not entirely sure why Will got so angry, but it might have been due to

02:50the fact that Jada has alopecia, which causes her baldness, and the joke didn't sit well with them.

02:55Well, later in the night, he won Best Actor, and a teary Will took the stage to apologize and said,

03:00Love will make you do crazy things. I mean, that was pretty damn crazy.

03:05We'll have to keep you updated with all that's to come from this, but be sure in the meantime to hit

03:09the sub, like, and bell button for all the latest news on your favorite sleds.

03:12And don't forget to follow me on social media at Ali Stagnita. Bye, guys.
