After all, Hugo and Cameron still couldn't make it to the buffet table, not because they were afraid to eat because they were afraid of too many people in the scene, but because there were too many people at the scene to say hello, and by the time all the greetings were over, they were already about to enter the venue, and there were less than twenty minutes left before the awards ceremony began.

After entering the Holy Auditorium, Hugo and Cameron found their positions under the guidance of the staff, with the "Shawshank Redemption" crew on the right hand and the "Forrest Gump" crew on the left.

So there was another rush of greetings, Hugo ended up sitting on Tom Hanks' right, Cameron Diaz on Hugo's right, and Samuel L. Jackson, Quentin Tarantino, and then the "Shawshank Redemption" crew. It is worth mentioning that Uma was placed in the back row, sitting with Tim Ross and Bruce Willis.

In fact, many people don't notice that Hugo and Tom Hanks have the same agent. Compared with Hugo, who joined halfway, Tom and Rick undoubtedly have a deeper bond, the two have worked together for eight years, and Tom is the actor that Rick has brought to the top.

However, in the past year, Rick has experienced great turmoil, and Hugo's work has always been very busy, so Hugo and Tom have only met a few times, but they are only nodding and saying hello, and the two are not familiar with each other. After sitting together tonight, we got the opportunity to talk alone.

Compared with the recent actor showdown that the media is keen on hype, Hugo and Tom have a good conversation, but unfortunately, the awards ceremony kicked off soon, and the two had to temporarily shift their attention to the party.

This year's Oscars invited David Letterman to host, the most popular talk show host in the United States, undoubtedly has a super high reputation, and the deeds of his and Jay Leno's rivals have even been made into a documentary, which shows how influential the event is.

Hugo and Jay Renaud's personal relationship naturally became the target of attack in the eyes of David Lightman. However, "Mr. Letterman" seems to have forgotten about the particularity of the Oscar stage, which cannot be too solemn and strict, but also not too vulgar and spoofing, it has never been easy to be qualified as an Oscar host, and he is already a little too busy to attack others.

After walking on the stage, David calmly opened with applause, "It's been an unforgettable year, isn't it?" We've watched a lot of great movies, we've met a lot of great actors, and tonight we've seen a lot of new Oscar faces. ”

"Come, let me introduce you." David strode across the stage to Hugo's side, and then shouted to the other side of the stage, "Oprah, Uma; Then he walked over quickly, "Uma, Oprah." ”

Uma and Oprah are two very rare names, and David is joking with their names. The camera followed closely with the two parties, with Uma Thurman and Oprah Winfrey both somewhat surprised.

Even if she is as experienced as Oprah, she didn't expect David to make fun of herself in the second sentence of the opening scene, let alone Uma - Uma thought that she would be like an invisible person at the Golden Globes, no one mentioned her, and the news continued to be invisible afterwards, who knew that there was a surprise at the beginning of today, and it was more "surprise" than "joy" - Uma never liked people to joke about her name.

So, both Uma and Oprah giggle at a loss, and this giggle is clearly recorded by the cameras and seen by countless viewers. Whether it is Oprah, who aspires to become the queen of talk shows, or Uma, who is now at a low point in her career, they are not happy to see their stupid appearance of "smirking" become the object of ridicule by the audience.

At this time, David Letterman became the object of hatred between Oprah and Uma, and he was not able to forget it until ten years later. David's Oscar hosting experience was also considered a disaster, and was dismissed by many media outlets as a "horrific experience" after the awards ceremony, and he has not appeared in the Oscar hosting position since.

Oprah and Uma both giggled awkwardly, and the audience didn't all buy it, only a few laughed, and the rest smiled stiffly and looked at each other.

As a talk show host, the emphasis is on quick reaction ability, and David's reaction speed is naturally second to none, but today his reaction speed seems to be too fast. After David heard the low laughter at the scene, he felt that the laughter was like a fruit, and he should speed up the pace a little more, so he strode to Umma's place again, "Also, Umma, Cameron; Cameron, Uma ......"

Uma was in the limelight for the second time in a row, but she was eager to burrow into the hole, and the smile on her face was completely stiff at this moment. Even Hugo and Cameron, who were sitting in front of Uma, also became the center of attention.

This time David is obviously teasing Hugo, Uma and Cameron are the only publicly acknowledged dates Hugo has so far, and now the ex-lover is the partner of the film, and the current lover is on the scene as the ceremonial female companion, which really makes countless gossip reporters enthusiastic. Although David does not mention Hugo, the effect of sarcasm and ridicule could not be more obvious.

But the problem is that everyone in the circle knows the grievances between Uma and Hugo, and Uma is like an invisible person during the entire promotion period of "Pulp Fiction", not only Hugo, but even Quentin and Weinstein brothers have taken the initiative to cooperate, what does this mean? shows that Uma almost offended the entire crew, and then think of the previous "accompaniment." Sleep. The door", even if you don't know the truth, you can feel it: no one supports Uma.

Therefore, even gossip reporters are reluctant to mention Uma and Hugo anymore, firstly, because there is no revelation worth excavating, and secondly, because they don't want to offend a large number of people.

But David didn't open any pot, and it was at the Oscars. This quickly cooled the scene.

This time, the audience couldn't laugh anymore, and the laughter that came out sporadically just now is now completely gone, leaving only the stiff smirk that maintains the scene hanging on the corner of the mouth, making the scene cold all of a sudden, and even many viewers are not willing to support the scene at all, so they directly restrain their smiles.

This is definitely one of the most embarrassing moments in Oscar history, David Letterman on stage is smiling and thinking he is full of witty words, but off the stage is deserted, and many people are stingy with smiles. The atmosphere at the scene was simply miserable, and even the director in charge of the broadcast had already supported his forehead, not to mention others.

In the next two decades, this moment has been selected for the list of the worst moments of the Oscars, whether it is the top ten embarrassing moments, or the eight terrible moments, or the five worst moments, you can see the selection of this scene. Almost every time during the Oscars, David Letterman's phrase "Oprah, Uma, Cameron" will be repeatedly broadcast by various TV stations, and it has become one of the most famous negative teaching materials for later hosts.

Standing on the stage, David also sensed the coldness of the scene, and as an excellent talk show host, this is one of the abilities he must have. But what can he do now? Oscar is not his own talk show, although Oscar's lines were discussed and written by him and the screenwriter, but when it comes to the live broadcast, he can only follow the script process, and he can't do whatever he wants like his own show. Therefore, David could only bite the bullet and continue.

"Again, there are a lot of familiar old faces tonight, Paul Newman! We all know that you are definitely not stupid......" David was still able to hold the scene, his tone was not flustered, except for the momentary pause just now, everything was so smooth.

It's just that what should we do if the atmosphere at the scene has gradually condensed into ice?

Hugo was eager to see how the opening should end, but alas, the staff soon came to tell him that he needed to go backstage to prepare.

As last year's Best Supporting Actor winner, Hugo was tasked with presenting the Best Supporting Actress award tonight, and tonight's Best Supporting Actress award was the second award, so he had to arrive backstage early.

Hugo gently patted Cameron's right hand to tell her not to be nervous, and then followed the staff and expertly made his way backstage, less than three weeks ago, he had experienced an incredible night at this venue, not only a night of glory to death, but also a night of rock 'n' roll, and the Grammy trophy was no longer important.

Along the way, the staff greeted Hugo politely, and they all seemed very enthusiastic, but they were all a little worried while being enthusiastic, and even a few people cheered him directly, making Hugo cry and laugh.

Hugo, of course, knew what they were worried about, and as early as when the Oscars announced the list of nominees, the "Chicago Tribune" gloated about it, "If Hugo gives Uma an award...... "You don't need to say anything to know what they're expecting.

It is customary for the winner of the last year's Best Supporting Actor award to award this year's Best Supporting Actress, unless the previous winner is absent for any reason. So Uma, who was shortlisted for the Best Supporting Actress competition, naturally has the possibility of winning the award theoretically. If it was really Uma who won the award, then Hugo and Uma stood on the same stage again after a year, which is much more exciting than Mariah Carey's award to Glory to Death at the Grammys, which will definitely please many news outlets.

Just now, David provoked Hugo so much at the beginning, and then Hugo's seemingly ordinary and simple award task became more and more heavy. It is not surprising that the staff are worried and encouraged.

Hugo, of course, knew what he might face, and now that history was changing little by little, the facts he knew were quietly finding a new track. But even if what everyone expected happened, Hugo would not panic.

However, will this kind of weird and bloody scene really occur? At that time, even if Hugo will not panic, but what about Uma's reaction?
