“I have never won an Oscar,” Hudson corrected the host. “But I’ve been nominated!” she said, laughing.
“I gave you one in my head!” the embarrassed presenter said. “I’m sure it’s amazing!” Hudson added.

Hugh Grant was heavily criticised for what some called an “obnoxious” interview with model Ashley Graham, while Brendan Fraser’s sons delighted fans of the actor as they revealed his penchant for dad jokes.
During the ceremony, Malala was lauded for a “classy and perfect” response to a gag by Oscars host Jimmy Kimmel midway through the evening, in which he pretended to ask questions from members of the public.
