As host of this year's Oscars ceremony, Jimmy Kimmel made a dedicated effort to keep everyone on their toes by wedging in jokes about last year's big slap controversy and parading around with an anonymous person dressed in a Party City "Cocaine Bear" costume. But, try as he might, the night played out without a need for medics or mediation.
The relatively sleepy ceremony all but washed away the sins of the 2022 Academy Awards, during which Will Smith infamously took to the stage to slap Chris Rock across the face for joking about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith's alopecia, but a few questionable choices left the night less than perfect.
