The remark passed by the host regarding the president's tweeting in relation to his bathroom habits was gross and inappropriate.

The show started off very well with Justin Timberlake singing and dancing and the audience in full participation leading to a feel good, festive mood. Not bad during the ceremonies that food and other goodies would come down from the ceiling.

Since 1944 no picture has had two songs from it nominated and one would win. That happened with Going My Way and the winning nominated song- Swinging on a Star. Other song Going My Way was also nominated. This happened again last night with City of Angels from La-La Land beating out another song from that film.

When Warren Beatty opened the best picture envelope he saw Emma Stone's name along with the La-La Land title. That should have set up a red flag immediately. What an ending, only in Hollywood style.
