On Mel Gibson: "There's only one Braveheart in this room and he's not going to unite us either. Mel, you look great, I think the Scientology is working."

On Matt Damon: "He's a selfish person, but Matt did something very unselfish and I wanted to commend him for it. He could have starred in Manchester By The Sea but he didn't: he gave that role to childhood friend Casey Affleck, and made a Chinese ponytail movie instead. That movie went on to lose $80 million dollars. Smooth move, dumbass."

On President Trump: "I want to say thank you to President Trump. Remember last year when they thought the Oscars were racist?"

On Best Picture nominees Hidden Figures and La La Land: "Black people save NASA and white people saved jazz. That's what you call progress."

On Best Picture nominee Moonlight: "The only happy ending in all of the nominees was the one in the middle of Moonlight."

On Best Actress nominee Isabelle Huppert: "She is nominated for Elle and on behalf of everyone here, we didn't see Elle but we absolutely loved it. I'm glad Homeland Security let you in tonight."

On Meryl Streep: "One actress stands out for her many uninspiring and overrated performances. Meryl Streep has phoned it in in more than 50 films in her lacklustre career. Nice dress by the way – is that an Ivanka?"
