Chapter 83: Chapter 80.

"Hey hey hey! It is an honour to be here sharing this night with the many, many talented and creative people in Hollywood who haven't been caught, yet let it never be said that Hollywood doesn't have its scandals. I mean, even the youngest of us hasn't been spared its wrath." Another person came behind to stand in the middle of the two young ladies. His name was William Jonas.

"Hello Emily," William walked towards the one who was wearing the suit, an A-grade actress who had won three Oscars in the past five years. Emily W. Red was a well-known actress who was popular for her beautiful eyes; eyes that no one could ever compare to. It was a gift, or so everyone said.

The other woman who was wearing a mini-dress was also an A-grade actress who won two Oscars in the past five years. "And, Julia," He said right after while tangling his hand with hers.

"This year the audience is allowed to drink in their seats. I hope you're excited about that," Everyone laughed loudly and cheered.

"The one thing Hollywood needs right now are people losing their inhibitions at a work function," Julia Rivers said with no expression.

Everyone laughed and clapped again.

"Let's start over,"

"Probably the best idea," Julia and Emily talked to each other. The crowd once again fell into a fit of laughter.

"Ladies, Ladies! No one cares about what your whispers are about. Is it just me or are all the men very tired of these little gossips they do,"

"Anyways, welcome! Welcome to the Oscars! And, most importantly, congratulations, congratulations to everyone who has been nominated tonight, thank you for letting me be a part of this, I'm excited. I have never been to the Oscars before, and the way you people go through the hosts, this is probably my last time here, so, I'm going to enjoy this while I'm here!"

Emily and Julia clapped while everyone else joined them.

"Yes! Same here, William. That is nothing to mention specifically, back to the story, this broadcast is being watched by millions of Americans and people watching from around the world in more than two-hundred and twenty-five countries that now hate us!" Emily said, making everyone laugh.

The cameras all over the theatre kept focusing on actors and actresses while they laughed with every word from the hosts.

"And I think that is… an amazing thing!" Julia said sarcastically.

"No, really. America is divided. Like seriously, people are asking me to do something about it, tell something about it. I mean, I'm not sure but in front of millions of people, the only thing I can tell you is, to reach the closest person and help," William said with a frown.

"Let me reach out to someone I had some beef with,"

"Who?" Julia and Emily both asked.

"Starcy. Starcy Farewell, how are you doing? *Rival*? He said the last word in a whisper but everyone heard it and laughed. "We knew each other for twelve years, and then- then everything clashed. What was your movie name again? He is the Best? I mean, I remember how you came for me for movie titles, but this? You should have put aside all the shit and came to me,"

"Alright, the movie is great, I'm sure." Julia interrupted. "Uh, I watched it thrice!" She said,

Everyone clapped and 'woohoo'ed from the audience.

"Still halfway through,"

This took everyone by surprise. Emily and William looked face-to-face.

"Give it a week, you will get there. I'm sure," Emily patted her back.

"Talking about helping the one next to you, divided America reminds me of so many things. Racism is something that I wanna make people aware of. I mean, Black people save the white, and the white people save Jazz. That's what we call progress!"

Everyone clapped and the camera shifted to Ian's face. He smirked and clapped along.

"Nominations for six Oscars? Really? Isn't this like your first time here, kid?" Julia asked and shrugged.

Everyone laughed. Ian mouthed, 'yeah yeah'.

"It is La La Land everyone, which broke the records of a newbie director-,"

"Let's talk about something more important?" Emily questioned in the middle, making everyone laugh.

"John Chandler, how is it going there mate?" William asked while the pairs of eyes around him focused on him.

John waved to the camera.

"Give it up for John everyone. Watch the movie, it's- it's very awesome! I watched it THRICE-" everyone clapped again.

"Still in the middle!"

Emily and Julia raised their eyebrows up. "You'll get there don't worry," Emily muttered.

"Moving on… the stage will be opened for all the winners. They get to give a speech. A speech yes. Please make it short. We don't wanna hear your thanks for your family and all, I mean. Be honest, we all are pretty hungry right?"

Everyone laughed hearing her words.

"I mean- I mean, we are going to offer an award for the shortest speech! Yes, that's right. See that over there?"

The corner of the stage had another award. Looked tall, squared-shape and there was a person holding a microphone.

"That would be given to the person who gives the shortest speech," Emily said with a smile.

"Oh and, don't worry Jacob, when I was pregnant, I peed myself too."

"What?" Both Emily and Julia turned to look at William.

"It was your dialogue, My bad, but hey. It was for Jacob's song," William said.

[...] The roasts continued for eight to ten minutes and the award distribution started quite right away.

"Let's start with the awards, it is very exciting. Anything can happen tonight. I mean literally anything! There are two possibilities, possibility number one, RunSlow winning the best movie award,"

Everyone clapped hearing the words.

"Possibility number two, all of you are racists,"

The crowd laughed yet again.

The award distribution started quickly after, "... With that being said the Best Male lead actor award goes to… Ferris Bacada, for Smiling Silently,"

Ferris walked up to the stage with a huge smile on his face. Grabbing the award and going to the mic, he took a deep breath before starting his speech.

The speech concluded after he thanked each and everyone around him including the movie crew, director, family, and everyone who supported him.

"Next the award will be given to the Best Actress. Let's take a quick view at the nominations,"

The screen that was behind the stage, showed pictures and videos of different movies that got nominated for the best actress award. The first nomination was Eloise in La La Land. It was a picture of her doing a solo performance in the theatre.

"The best Actress Oscar goes to… Eloise Hampton! La La Land!"

Since it was the very first award La La Land got, Ian and everyone else who was near them stood up and congratulated Eloise. With a huge smile, she went onto the stage.

"I should thank Ian for this wonderful movie idea. Thank you everyone for embracing the character of Mia for who she was, and I'm so glad to be here, I just wanna say, no matter who you are, if you can dream, you definitely can achieve," Eloise said while showing the award to the crowd and walked off the stage.

Hearing her words, everyone in the audience clapped loudly.

After her speech, the stage went silent. Within a matter of a few seconds, the three hosts came walking in with three different costumes. William wore a suit which made him look like an old man who was just out of a musical. Julia had a pizza in her hand, with a huge grin and she was biting the pizza from time to time. Emily was wearing a bridal dress, signalling the movie 'He Is The Best.'

A small conversation went on among them and the crowd broke into a burst of laughter when Emily fell down the stage while she kept walking to her back. It was all part of the play so she was not harmed.

After a few seconds, the nominations for the best screenplay were on the screen.

"The best screenplay Oscar goes to…. La La Land by Ian Renner!"

Hearing this, Ian's eyebrows went up in amusement. Everyone clapped and some even stood up from their seats.

"Hence, Ian can be known as the youngest recipient in 89 years to get the award," William said while walking to the stage with the award.

"Thank you so much, thank you, thank you," His voice was unclear due to all the noise of clapping and shouting. "Thank you, academy voters, I want to thank my amazing team, Uncle Mason, and everyone else. I would feel really bad if I missed any name of my team, so thank you. La La Land is about the harsh reality of Hollywood and the true possibilities of the opportunities. I salute all the fellow nominees. This is a great tribute to the city, an amazing honour for my family, and uh fantastic people. Thank you so much," He said with a smile and got off the stage.

"The award for Production distribution and set decoration. The nominations, June, production design by Chi She and set decoration by Miroslav Kolář, Day Dream Alley, production design by Joseph Jacobs and set decoration by Kaj Berkhout, It Is A Mystery, production design by Fran Major and set decoration by Amber Foyer, La La Land, production design by Stefan Haigh and set decoration by Christina Rochelle and we have Runaway Bride, production design by Richard Patel and set decoration by Jay Bouchard.

The award goes to…. June,"

As soon as the movie name was said, Ian and the actors from La La Land, who sat kind of close together, clapped. Ryan patted Stefan Haigh's shoulder.

"Thank you so much, everyone. Thank you," Chi She said and smiled while the award rested on his hand. To show off to the crowd, he kissed it in public.

"Thank you for this opportunity, thank you academy awards, I wanna thank everyone, and I'm so glad to be here, thank you," Miroslav said with a smile that did not reach his eyes.

[...] At the end of the award show, La La Land was able to win prizes for the best screenplay and the best leading actress. The other four nominated awards including the best picture were lost. Nevertheless, Ian had a huge smile on his face when he was walking toward his car; tired yet happy.

June won the highest number of Oscars as it was truly a masterpiece created by a well-experienced director. Everyone who watched June and was in and out of the industry saw the achievement coming from miles away.
