Tina Fey felt the Academy Awards focused too much on the issues this
year.
“Being at the Oscars… halfway through I was like this is some real Hollywood bulls--t,” she dished to Howard Stern. “Everyone’s telling
me like what to do and it was like, people are yelling at me about
rape and corporate greed, but really it’s climate change, and I was
like ‘Guys, pick a lane. Hey everyone, we’re going to fix everything tonight. And also, you’re all rich. Why are you yelling at me about corporate greed? You’re all so rich.’”
Sunday’s Oscars turned out to be a platform not just for racial representation in the movies, led by host Chris Rock's incisive
insight and parody, but a wide array of causes, from global warming
and bank reform to sexual abuse in church and on campus.
At the end of the night, Leonardo Dicaprio opted to turn his
first-ever Academy Awards acceptance speech into a brief lecture
about climate change.
Still, Fey thought DiCaprio’s acceptance speech was “articulate.”
“He’s so smart and his speech was so cogent,” she said.
Careful of those big words, Tina.
