The Oscars welcomed three hosts this year in Amy Schumer, Wanda Sykes and Regina Hall. But it was Schumer who got the first monologue of the night, and she roasted as many people in the room as she could.To start, the comedian threw a dig at the Oscars as a whole, joking that “The only place I could think of that would be better than this would be … home.” Schumer joked that home is where her family — and her pills — are, before turning her attention to more specific targets.Of course, not all of her subjects enjoyed Schumer’s targeting.
Jake Gyllenhaal didn’t seem to appreciate Schumer’s next joke, in which she said the Oscars is “a night for lovers,” singling out famous couples — including Gyllenhaal and his sister, Maggie.But it was one movie and its cast in particular that got most of Schumer’s punchlines: “Don’t Look Up.”“I guess the Academy members ‘don’t look up’ reviews!” she joked. Schumer then complimented her longtime friend Jennifer Lawrence for her role in the film, while simultaneously making a comment about her weight (Lawrence was pregnant last year, and gave birth in February).Then, Schumer turned on Lawrence’s “Don’t Look Up” co-star, Leonardo DiCaprio.“And I mean, Leonardo Dicaprio, what can I even say about him?” she said.
“He’s done so much to fight climate change and leave behind a cleaner, greener planet for his girlfriends. [Pause for laughter].

Academy Awards co-host Amy Schumer stopped by “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen” on Wednesday to share her thoughts on Will Smith’s slap of Chris Rock — the moment that “really changed the air in the room.”
It’s been dubbed the slap heard around the world and the fallout for actor Will Smith after slapping comedian Chris Rock for telling a joke about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith at the Oscars continues and won’t abate. Given it was an unscripted moment of violence that shocked audiences and pretty much everyone in attendance at the Academy Award ceremony, many are aghast that after striking Rock, Smith returned to his seat, suffered zero consequences, and then waited patiently to win the Best Actor statue for his performance in “King Richard.” Following Smith’s apology, Pinkett-Smith’s call for “healing.” and an investigation opened by the Academy branch, many celebrities are weighing in, some very well connected to the story, others, not even attending that night.
Days after Will Smith slapped the taste out of Chris Rock at the 94th Academy Awards for making a joke at Jada Pinkett-Smith‘s expense, Amy Schumer is still dealing with lingering feelings from the incident. As one of the Oscars’ hosts, Amy, 40, had the task of trying to make everyone laugh after the awkward interaction. While she successfully defused the tension in the Dolby Theatre with a joke, Amy said she’s still going through what went down. “I think we can all agree that the best way to unpack what happened is to stream my series @lifeandbethhulu and see me on tour this fall,” Amy posted on Mar. 30. “But for real. Still triggered and traumatized.”
A post shared by @amyschumerThe comedian added that not only was she proud of Chris Rock for keeping his composure, but she was also proud of herself and her co-hosts, Wanda Sykes and Regina Hall, for keeping the show rolling.“I’m still in shock and stunned and sad.
