Actor/Comedian Chris Rock was the host at this years Oscar awards show!!! However a lot of people have been expressing their anger and disappointed towards Chris Rock at this years Oscars!
The comedian tackled the lack of diversity in the nominations head-on in a pointed and rousing opening monologue that mocked Jada Pinkett Smith!!!

Rock said “Jada got mad, she said she’s not coming. Doesn’t she have a TV show? Jada boycotting the Oscars is like me boycotting Rihanna’s panties – I wasn’t invited!”
He added: “You get mad that Will was this good and didn’t get nominated”. “It’s also not fair that Will was paid $20m to do Wild Wild West.”
Rock had begun his monologue by pointing out that he could “count at least 15 black people” in the opening montage, before welcoming viewers to the Oscars, “otherwise known as the White People’s Choice awards”. Read more after the cut !!!!
As we all remember, about a month ago Jada spoke out against the lack of diversity in the awards given out at the Oscars. the beautiful actress used #Oscarssowhite hashtag on Twitter to ask if ‘people of colour’ should avoid this year’s ceremony to protest against white-only list of Academy Award nominees.
A lot of other actors supported her and some did not support her including actresses like Stacey Dash, who suggested that they should get rid of black history month or any black entertainment channel!
Anyway american singer Tyrese wasn't too happy with what Chris Rock did at the Oscars so he decided to express his feeling on his Instagram .
