Whoopi had to host the Oscars after 9/11, not easy! And she pulled it off! Great job!

@dvchel 5 лет назад

Yes, it was also amazing to see how so many weren't so sensitive yet in regards to jokes and getting easily offended. Even Whoopi can laugh about herself, her background and skin-color etc. No big deal.

@nickxyx2879 5 лет назад

What does it have to do with 9/11? It was 7 months afret that terrorist attack

@dvchel 5 лет назад

@@nickxyx2879 Seriously? The events of September 11th were the most tragic event to hit American soil since ever. Even Pearl Harbour pales in comparison. People at the time were still grieving and mourning the loss of their loved ones, thousands of families being broken apart for no reasons, those physically and emotionally hurt by the scale and tragedy of the events, while also having to deal with the loss of the Twin Towers, who were an enormous symbol of American might and glory.

A lot of newbies don't understand that it takes intelligence, natural humor, and so much more for them to hand her Oscar after Oscar. She transforms herself so well into any character that she plays.

@MrJamberee Год назад

No, it does not take intelligence. That’s the least of the skills needed, and we know that by how many truly stupid actors succeed in Hollywood.

so many actors can transform and in much better roles than her, so she dressed up for once and wore high heels after decades.

But she was already a megastar who had been at the apex of Hollywood celebrity, and is a member of The Academy herself. Those are her people, and Whoopi has never been known to be shy. In fact. her nickname Whoopi is a play on the joke-toy "whoopie cushion", given to her by her friends early in her career because they said she has a "flatulent" personality, LOL
