Man, I counted at least 15 black people on that montage.

Hey!

Well, I'm here at the Academy Awards, otherwise known as the White People's Choice Awards.

You realize, if they nominated host, I wouldn't even get this job.

That's right, y'all be watching Neil Patrick Harris right now.

But here's the crazy thing.

This is the wildest, craziest Oscars to ever host, because we got all this controversy.

There's no black nominees, you know?

And people are like, Chris, you should boycott.

Chris, you should quit.

You should quit.

How come there's only unemployed people that tell you to quit something, huh?

No one with a job ever tells you to quit.

I wanted to quit.

So I thought about quitting.

I thought about it real hard, but I realized they're gonna have the Oscars anyway.

They're not gonna cancel the Oscars because I quit.

You know?

And the last thing I need is to lose another job to Kevin Hart, okay?

I don't need that.

Kev, Kev right there.

Kev make movies fast.

Every month.

I know the stars don't make movies that fast.

Now, the thing is, why are we protesting?

That's the big question.

Why this Oscars?

Why this Oscars, you know?

It's the 88th Academy Awards.

It's the 88th Academy Awards,

which means this whole no black nominees thing has happened at least 71 other times.

Okay?

You got to figure that it happened in the 50s, In the 60s, you know, in the 60s, one of those years, Sidney didn't put out a movie,

I'm sure, I'm sure there were no black nominees some of those years, say, 62 or 63, and black people did not protest.

Why?

Because we had real things to protest at the time.

You know?

We had real things to protest.

You know, it's too busy being raped and lynched to care about who won best cinematographer.

You know, when your grandmother's swinging from a tree, it's really hard to care about best documentary foreign short.

But what happened this year?

What happened?

People went mad, you know?

Spike got mad, and Charlton got mad, and Jada went mad, and Will went mad.

Everybody went mad, you know?

It's quite like Jada got mad.

Jada says she's not coming, protesting.

I'm like, is she on a TV show?

Jada's going to boycott the Oscars.

Jada boycotting the Oscars is like me boycotting Rihanna's panties.

I wasn't invited.

Oh, that's not an invitation I would turn down.

I'm not hating.

I understand you're mad.

Jayda's mad her man, Will, was not nominated for concussion.

I get it.

Tell the truth.

I get it.

You get mad that it's not fair that Will was this good and didn't get nominated.

You're right.

It's also not fair that Will was paid $20 million for Wild Wild West, okay?

Okay?

Things, you know...

You know, this year, you know, You know, this year at Oscars, things are gonna be a little different.

This thing, things are gonna be a little different at the Oscars.

This year, in the in-memoriam package, it's just gonna be black people that were shot by the cops on their way to the movies.

Yes, yes, I said it, all right?

Hey, if you want black nominees every year, you need to just have black categories.

That's what you need.

You need to have black categories.

You already do it with men and women.

Think about it.

There's no real reason for there to be a man in a woman category in acting.

It's track, it's not, come on.

There's no reason.

It's not track and field.

You don't have to separate them.

You know, Robert De Niro's never said, I better slow this acting down so Meryl Streep could catch up.

No. Not at all, man.

If you want black people every year at the Oscars, just have black categories, like...

Best black friend.

That's right.

And the winner for the 18th year in a row is Wanda Sykes.

This is Wanda's 18th black Oscar.

But here's the real question.

The real question everybody wants to know, everybody wants to know in the world, is is Hollywood racist?

Is Hollywood racist?

You know, that's a...

You know, you got to go at that the right way.

Is it...is it Vernon Cross racist?

No. Is it fetch me some lemonade racist?

No. No, no, no. It's a different type of racist.

Now, I remember one night I was at a fundraiser for President Obama, a lot of you were there, and, you know, it's me and all of Hollywood,

And all the, you know, it's all of us there.

And there's about four black people there.

Me, uh, let's see, Quincy Jones, Russell Simmons, Questlove.

You know, the usual suspects, right?

100

You know?

101

And every black actor that wasn't working.

102

Needless to say, Keb Hart was not there, okay?

103

So, at some point, you get to take a picture with the president, you know?

104

And as they're setting up the picture, you get, like, a little moment with the president.

105

I'm like, Mr. President, you see all these writers and producers and actors?

106

They don't hire black people.

107

And they're the nicest white people on earth.

108

They're liberals.

109

Cheese.

110

That's right.

111

Is Hollywood racist?

112

You're damn right Hollywood's racist, but it ain't that racist that you've grown accustomed to.

113

Hollywood is sorority racist.

114

It's like, we like you, Rhonda, but you're not a kappa.

115

That's how Hollywood's, yeah?

116

But things are changing.

117

Things are changing.

118

Yeah, we got a Black Rocky this year.

119

Yeah, some people call it Creed, I call it Black Rocky.

120

And that's a big, that's an unbelievable statement.

121

because Rocky takes place in a world where white athletes are as good as black athletes.

122

Sorry, Rocky's a science fiction movie.

123

There are things that happen in Star Wars that are more believable than things that happen in Rocky, okay?

124

But hey, we're here to honor actors.

125

We're here to honor actors.

126

We're here to honor film, you know.

127

And there's a lot of snubs, a lot of snubs.

128

One of the biggest snubs no one's talking about.

129

My favorite actor in the world is Paul Giamatti.

130

Paul Giamatti, I believe, is the greatest actor in the world.

131

Think about what Paul Giamatti has done the last couple of years.

132

Last year, he's in 12 Years a Slave, hates black people.

133

This year, he's in Straight Outta Compton, loves black people.

134

Last year, he's whooping Lupita.

135

This year, he's crying at Easy E's funeral.

136

Now, that's range.

137

Yeah, Ben Affleck can't do that.

138

But what I'm trying to say is, you know, it's not about boycotting anything is just we want opportunity.

139

We want black actors to get the same opportunities as white actors.

140

That's it.

141

That's it.

142

You know?

143

Not just once.

144

You know, Leo gets a great part every year.

145

And, you know, everybody...

146

All you guys get great parts all the time.

147

But what about the black actors?

148

Look at Jamie Foxx.

149

Jamie Foxx is one of the best actors in the world, man.

150

Jamie Foxx, yeah!

151

Jamie Foxx was so good in Ray that they went to the hospital and unplugged the real Ray Charles.

152

It's like, we don't need two of these.

153

No, man.

154

But the big thing, you know, everything's not about race, man.

155

Another big thing tonight is you're not allowed, Somebody told me that you're not allowed to ask women what they're wearing anymore.

156

It's the whole thing, you know, ask her more.

157

You have to ask her more.

158

Now, you know, it's like, you ask the men more.

159

Hey, everything's not sexism.

160

Everything's not racism.

161

They ask the men more because the men are all wearing the same outfits, okay?

162

Every guy there is wearing the exact same thing.

163

You know, if George Clooney showed up with a lime green tux on and a swan coming out his ass,

164

somebody would go, what you wearing, George?

165

Hey, welcome to the 88 Oscar Gaby Awards.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
