Oscar called starring in Moon Knight “kind of a full-circle moment,” given that the first movie he was ever in was titled The Avenger.
“Not The Avengers, which was a massive blockbuster. No, no. This was The Avenger, which is a movie I wrote, directed and starred in when I was 10 years old,” Oscar explained. “It was shot on location in my buddy Bruce Ferguson’s backyard, in our hometown of Miami, Florida. I play a ninja assassin training to fight his nemesis, and we actually have a clip.”
Oscar then shared some footage of him as a kid playing the wannabe assassin.
“[The film’s] arguably better than the real Avengers, and I made it for half the budget, only about $110 million,” Oscar continued. “But I took it really seriously—maybe a little too seriously. Like in this scene.”
Oscar shared another clip of him “acting [his] heart out” while his friend Bruce’s dad cleans the pool in the background.
He then shared a third clip of him playing two characters – the assassin and villain – with the assassin stabbing the villain in the eye with a sword, before licking the blood off.
“Now you may be asking, Oscar, why are you using your monologue to show us old home videos? And the reason is, it’s important to encourage kids to be weirdos,” Oscar said, as he was handed a prop sword on stage to lick blood off. “Because every once in a while, one of those weirdos grows up to host SNL.”

Florida reggae band Artikal Sound System have filed a complaint in California federal court alleging that Dua Lipa infringed on the copyright of their 2017 track "Live Your Life" for her massive 2020 hit "Levitating." Their complaint claims Lipa and her co-defendants — including Warner Records and songwriters Clarence Coffee, Jr., Sarah Hudson, and Stephen Kozmeniuk — "listened to and copied 'Live Your Life' before and during the time when they were writing 'Levitating.'” It's a straightforward copyright claim, with the plaintiffs' attorneys alleging that, "[g]iven the degree of similarity, it is highly unlikely that 'Levitating' was created independently from 'Live Your Life.'” The allegation rests on the likeness of the two track's choruses (in Levitation's case, the chorus' second half), which have nearly identical chord structures — albeit ones relatively common in pop music — and vocal melodies, as well as lyrical similarities.
