  • 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,760 Hey, did you have a good President's Day week?

  • [CHEERS]

  • 00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:07,229 Did you buy a lot of mattresses?

  • [LAUGHING]

  • 00:00:09,370 --> 00:00:11,437 I bought 30.

  • I don't need them, but I'm rich, and they were on sale,

  • so I don't care.

  • Another big event is coming up this weekend, the Oscars.

  • As you probably heard, something big will be missing this year.

  • For the first time in over a decade,

  • the Oscars ceremony will not have any Meryl Streep

  • nominations.

  • Sorry, Meryl.

  • Maybe act harder next year.

  • A lot of tough competition, though-- the Oscars-- boy,

  • there's Roma, and there's BlacKkKlansman,

  • and The Favourite.

  • They're all nominated for Best Picture.

  • But what's weird is The Favourite isn't the favorite.

  • Roma is the favorite.

  • Even though The Favourite is called the favorite,

  • it's not the favorite.

  • And BlacKkKlansman could win, even though it's not

  • the favorite or The Favourite.

  • 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:05,300 I'm saying the favorite, but I don't

  • know if I'm pronouncing it correctly, because they

  • spell it the British way.

  • They have a U in it, so it's faver-ay-tay?

  • Is that-- that's more French.

  • Fay-vret-- no.

  • 00:01:20,320 --> 00:01:21,250 Fave-ret?

  • No, I'm not good at accents.

  • But, anyway, favourite has a U in it, which is--

  • I don't know where the U came from, and there's no I in team,

  • but there's a U in favourite.

  • And then there's also an I and favourite.

  • 00:01:35,450 --> 00:01:41,420 Anyway, again, the best actor--

  • this is a very controversial category

  • because, once again, no women were nominated.

  • I'm not sure who will win, but everyone who's nominated

  • put so much work into their roles.

  • Christian Bale put on 40 pounds to play Dick Cheney.

  • And Rami Malek-- he put on 40 pounds of teeth

  • just to play Freddie Mercury.

  • Bradley Cooper is also nominated.

  • He wrote, directed, and starred in the movie.

  • 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,220 I think A Star Is Born may win for best song.

  • I really do.

  • I think there's a good possibility.

  • I do wish, though, that they would

  • have left the original version in the movie.

  • Did you see the original version?

  • It's really good.

  • [MUSIC PLAYING]

  • 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:27,786 I think you're beautiful.

  • (SINGING) I'm falling--

  • Hey.

  • I just wanted to take another look at you.

  • (SINGING) In all the good times, I

  • find myself longing for change.

  • Here's what we're gonna do.

  • We're gonna sing that song that I love.

  • 00:02:51,190 --> 00:02:52,390 [SINGING]

  • 00:03:01,390 --> 00:03:03,790 (SINGING) I'm off the deep end.

  • Watch as I dive in.

  • I'll never meet the ground.

  • 00:03:11,590 --> 00:03:16,390 We're far from the shallow now.

  • [CHEERING]

00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,760 Hey, did you have a good President's Day week?
