15 Most Shocking Moments In Oscars History | Jimmy Kimmel, Marlon Brando

  • last year
The Academy Awards are cinema's most prestigious prize. Although, now the Oscars are full of humorous gags and laughter, it is actually a buttoned-up, serious affair. An Academy Award can change the entire life for a winning actor or generate millions of extra dollars at the box office for a motion picture. However, you have to remember that the ceremony is live and even though the people attending are mostly Hollywood celebrities, they're still human!

Although, we have included most of the memorable and shocking moments in Oscars involving celebrities like Halle Berry, Sally Field, Heath Ledger, Cuba Gooding, Adrien Brody, Melissa Leo, Leonardo Di Caprio, Jennifer Lawrence, Ellen DeGeneres, Hattie McDaniel, Roberto Benigni, Jack Palance, Frances McDormand, Charlie Chaplin, Marlon Brando, there are still some incidents in Oscars history made by A-list celebs like Tom Hiddleston, Jim Carrey, Alfred Hitchcock, Martin Scorcese, Cher and many more which are just as shocking! Remember when John Travolta called Idina Menzel, "Adele Dazeem"? How about when poor Frank Capra walked up to the stage when Frank Lloyd was actually the winner?

We also remember the special moments when John Wayne got to say his own kind of farewell to his colleagues and fans before passing away a few months later, and also when Woody Allen made his lone appearance at the Oscars to pay tribute to his native New York, six months after the tragic 9/11.

The 2018 Oscars was a perfect evening which almost made us forget the "envelope-gate" incident until host for the 2nd time Jimmy Kimmel, took a funny dig at the whole debacle. The Oscars has also witnessed a tongue-in-cheek moment when Best Actor Tom Hanks accidentally outed his High School drama teacher.

With so many goof-ups happening in the recent Oscars, we wonder how the 2019 Oscars will surprise us!
