I remember watching this when it aired. I was a teenager at the time and it was my first time ever watching an Oscar show. This monologue is just as funny today as it was back in 1996. Love it!
According to Wikipedia "In October 1995, Baldwin allegedly assaulted a photographer for videotaping his wife, Kim Basinger, and their 3-day-old daughter. The couple were returning from the hospital and were confronted by the photographer outside their Los Angeles home." That's why she mentioned him and also about he has a baby.
takakupo she does not mean to offend gays and gay rights. She is a comedian who is poking fun of ignorance of Hollywood establishment and how they reduce serious issues to simply ‘a ribbon’.
Why was Mel Gibson’s wife (or date) showed no interest in the Oscar’s host - Whoopi Goldberg? Her head is down reading a fucking book while Whoopi is entertaining the audience. So disrespectful.

Say it again!
I would start watching the Oscars again if they got Whoopi to host.
Jesus, Charlie Sheen joke in '96. Some things never change. :D
Love it, I watched it maybe 100 times, it gets better with every view, she's funny, smart and to the point, two thumbs up Whoopi:)))
Whoopy is one of the best comedian in hollywood. She presents herself very well and with act of class and at the same time very entertaining.

What about the late Bob Hope?
He was still alive in 1996. He died in 2003 at 100...
1:13 Is that the lady who secretly recorded her phone call with Mel Gibson when he screamed, "YOU SHOULD BE GRATEFUL AND BLOW ME!" ?
0:01. So did you miss me?
Hell yes, I missed you Whoopi.
This had me replaying in laughter

What was the Alec Baldwin reference about?
He attacked a photographer for taking photos of his wife and 2 day old baby.
"For gay rights disease..." haha, I'm sure just meant gay rights, but that's uncomfortable to watch.
takakupo she does not mean to offend gays and gay rights. She is a comedian who is poking fun of ignorance of Hollywood establishment and how they reduce serious issues to simply ‘a ribbon’.
