Chris totally had his work cut out for him hosting the Academy Awards on Feb. 28. This may have been the hardest show to host of all time thanks to the controversial #OscarsSoWhite movement.
As an African American, he faced a lot of pressure to refuse to host the predominantly whitewashed awards show, but he stuck to his guns and made the most of his stint as host.
Chris managed to be funny and lighthearted while being political and hard-hitting at the same time, and it was a total grand slam. Chris addressed the issue of the nominees lacking diversity by poking fun at the films and the Academy, but he also went after people boycotting the show (like Will Smith and Jada) just because they weren’t nominated.

His much anticipated monologue clearly took a lot of work and a lot of deep thought, but it definitely paid off. Fans and stars alike loved the topical speech.
Several former hosts, powerful African American celebrities and other comedians shared their undying support on Twitter before, during, and after the show. - Online Sources
