Chris Rock did not disappoint as he tore into white dominated Hollywood during his highly anticipated opening monologue at the 88th Academy Awards. The acid-tongued comedian, 51, compared Tinseltown to a bitchy racist sorority, jibbed at cops killing black men as he riffed on the #OscarsSoWhite race row, which has overshadowed this years ceremony.
Many in Hollywood had been holding their breath ahead of his much anticipated opening and the host did not disappoint, even launching an attack on Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith - who boycotted this years ceremony over a perceived lack of diversity. Al Sharpton led a protest near the Dolby Theater as the ceremony took place, below.
