Whoopi's reviews were mixed-to-harsh that year (Entertainment Weekly called her performance "assiduously self-congratulatory and determinedly lame") but looking back, she really is one of the better Oscar hosts. Even when some jokes don't land, she maintains a certain magnetic warmth .
I think watching all of these Oscar Monologues is kind of like opening a time capsule and seeing the Variety magazines seeing which movies were popular! Billy Crystal, Whoopi Goldberg, Steve Martin, Chris Rock and even David Letterman were funny doing these in their own ways.
I think she’s great! I didn’t watch that year. I was in high school and distinctly remember having a fight that night with my bf. Lol. Too bad I missed it. She’s killing, in my opinion.
i love Whoopi but I personally think all her Oscar openings are average and not much different compared to what we get nowadays. A few political jokes, roasting a few nominees. Some jokes land, some don't. All pretty standard. I think nostalgia plays a huge role when people claim the Oscars and its hosting used to be sooo much better.
As a child who grew up being conditioned a black woman's hair had to be permed, braided and straightened to be "pretty" + makeup, and how u wud be called a Whoopi Goldberg if u were "ugly", as an adult im only realising just how gorgeous she was, literally took my breath away

@@gutgutcalor9095 ACTRESS WHO PLAYED "Mammy" in Gone With The Wind,she won Best Supporting Actress that year but had to receive it at a HOTel ceremony, not the Oscar ceremony. DISGRACEFUL!
Nice to see this again saw it the very night it was on entering nearly two years back in the US and Whoopi was on the mark as usual . Excellent . Thank you for having a YT channel so can enjoy ceremonies we have seen and not seen be it before out time in my case yes .
great seeing this again , remember like many well when the four times hosting the Oscars and every single time was brilliant like everything she does . Marvellous job yes one of the top best hosts
I like to binge watch all the Whoopi and crystal and Steve Martin monologues. I ended up watching all the 1991 oscars. I really enjoy a lot of them. However, i ended up seeing Reversal of Fortune which I hadn’t seen and then watched Irons acceptance speech for it and thats how i went ahead and saw all the program. I recall the real Van Bulow case and really enjoyed that movie. He was very thoughtful of the real people in his speech and that impressed me.😊
Oh heeeeeyyyy sissy, I finally found you on here lol! I think Whoopi looks amazingly beautiful here and yaaassss girl that is one hilarious woman, she's a natural!!! 😍😍🔥🔥👏👏💘💘
BABY, THEY STILL TRYING TO CANCEL YOU OUT AND THEY WILL NEVER SUCCEED. I AM SO PROUD TO BE A FAN OF SUCH AN AMAZING ACTRESS, COMEDIAN AND WOMAN. I HAVE BEEN BLESSED TO SEE YOUR ENTIRE CAREER THUS FAR. YOU REMAIN TRUE TO YOU AND DON'T EVER CHANGE OR SELL YOUR SOUL. WE LOVE YOU!!!❤❤❤
Spot on , it's done on purpose as a subliminal message , it refers to Lucifer , hollywood is run by the masons and the illuminati , check out the black and white squares of the floor too !
Bring Whoopi back!!!! She's funnier than anyone else they've tried over the past 20 years. Hell, get Whoopi AND Billy. Let's have the old folks show the millennials how to host a damn awards show.
This is when the world was still free. If she said half of that stuff today they would cut to commercial. Kevin Hart got booted for things he said somewhere other than the Oscar's.
If the Best Animated Feature category was introduced earlier it would be at the 62nd Oscars and here are the nominees and winners leading up to 2002, the winners will be bold 1990 *The Little Mermaid* All Dogs Go to Heaven Babar 1991 Jetsons: The Movie *The Rescuers Down Under* 1992 An American Tail: Feivel Goes West Rover Dangerfield *Beauty and the Beast* 1993 Cool World BeBe's Kids *Aladdin* FernGully Little Nemo 1994 The Nightmare Before Christmas *Batman: Mask of the Phantasm* Once Upon a Forest We're Back!: A Dinosaur's Story 1995 *The Lion King* The Swan Princess Thumbelina 1996 Pocahontas A Goofy Movie *Toy Story* The Thief and the Cobbler Balto 1997 The Hunchback of Notre Dame Space Jam *Beavis and Butt-Head Do America* 1998 Cats Don't Dance Hercules *Anastasia* 1999 The Prince of Egypt Antz A Bug's Life *Mulan* The Rugrats Movie 2000 Toy Story 2 Tarzan *The Iron Giant* South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut Princess Mononoke 2001 The Emperor's New Groove The Road to El Dorado *Chicken Run* The Tigger Movie Dinosaur Rugrats in Paris And that's it!
She can go as trashy and as classy as she wants and she pulls it off every single time ❤ if you've ever seen her uncensored stand up you know what I'm talking about 🙌🤣
WHAT A INTLELIGENT AND WONDERFUL LADY, SHE MUST BE!... AND ALSO A GREAT ACTRESS " THE COLOUR PURPLE..." AND "SHE IS AMERICAN...AMERICAN...NOT BLACKAMERICAN!!...AND...UFA! AN AMERICAN INTELLIGENT... SHE HAVE AN AMAZING SENSE OF HUMOUR AND ,SAW HER SMILE AND HEAR HER TALK IS , ALREADY, A SHOW!...
Best Oscar host ever? Johnny Carson, followed by Bob Hope. In their absence, Billy Crystal and Whoopi filled the gap. But Hollywood hasn't bred a caliber-comedian who can carry the load for almost two decades. So, we have crappy Oscar ceremonies nobody's watching anymore. They've stripped Oscar of all that used to make it a grand show. And criticisms be damned. Whoopi's monologue here is funny as hell.
0:18 - looking back at these old oscar ceremonies, tom hanks looks the LEAST tom hanks he has ever looked. He comes across a bit grumpy, not friendly...
Is anyone else binge watching all of whoopi’s opening monologues for the oscars?
Yes! And she is amazing!
Omg me,I think I watched million times.i'm working from home and in between breaks I watch her when she hosted the oscar.
A lifetime icon in multiple areas
Me
While watching The View before heading out in the morning! I have to stop and watch later! 😂

I LOVE WHOOPI THEY SHOULD BRING HER BACK TO HOST THE OSCARS!!!!
I always hope that
They should bring back any host to oscars!
The Oscars? Are they still doing that?
What’s to say? Always cool!!!
Unfortunately nowadays she’s hosting the view lol
she was so natural as host
Its not that they didn't land it's the fact that WHOOPI LITERALLY knows everything that goes on behind and BLASTS YOU TO YOUR FACE AND COMEDICLY
😂😂 exactly!
The "Boy George" joke landed right
And yet - DESERVED to be slapped...on many occasions.

who is here after WHOPPI's 1996 opening
Whose watching in 2020.. love me some whoopi
She’s a hilarious comedian
"I thought the black list was me and Hatti McDaniel, shit..."
I always think Whoopy is the best host of all time in OSCAR.
We expect more and more her in OSCAR.
mahitur islam
You should have had the decency to spell her name correctly.
Dullard.
Monologue is such an amazing work of art.
Whoopi, Billy and Robin bring down the house. I miss Robin tho. :/
RACHiT mm
When did he host?!?!? (Robin)
Wow how people Minds change I remember as a child I thought this woman was ugly now as a grown man I think she's so beautiful
i agree with you on that. first thing i said when i saw her now i said 'wow she's beautiful' lol
Whoopi looks so beautiful!!!!
Love Whoopi. Hoping she can host again the Oscars for the 4th time... rooting for 2021? Come on Academy.
Fifth time! She has hosted for 4th times
@@thefirstpumpkin2571 She's already hosted five times. If she hosts again (I pray), it will be her 6th time.
@@georgiosioannispappas she only hosted 94, 96, 99 and 2002
She is too crazy and out of touch with reality now...although hollywood seems to prefer that these days...
Her timing is just impactable!!!!
Tom Hanks looks so handsome with that beard 😍
Whoopi is genuinely funny and she’s a class act.
“Honey, Let that bitch get into her car!” I listen to that line almost every day lol
pls explain
Nice to see this again saw it the very night it was on entering nearly two years back in the US and Whoopi was on the mark as usual . Excellent . Thank you for having a YT channel so can enjoy ceremonies we have seen and not seen be it before out time in my case yes .

BRING BACK WHOOPI!!!!!
She look beautiful in the dress. ❤️
Boy George joke was the best 😆😆😂😂

Thank you Alan
still watching in 2019
I am so excited for this year's "Nope" and "Decision To Leave" jokes xD
She's a stand-up comedian who does comedy impromptu. That would be expected. It's up to the techs to be on top of it!
She is so funny!
Something About Mary joke killed me!!!
i almost forgot this version of whoopi ever existed, this is her at her prime. that View table has really done a disservice to her.
If GG or Oscars bring Whoopy back I will watch it. I haven't for the last 2 years. Funny is gone.
1:18 screen melts because of Liam's hotness!

great seeing this again , remember like many well when the four times hosting the Oscars and every single time was brilliant like everything she does . Marvellous job yes one of the top best hosts
ridiculous timing. it's like an off-broadway one-woman show the way she sells it. whoopi is the only oscar host i've ever cared for.
One the best hosts ever!!!

The Armageddon pun was brilliant HAHA This was the fun Oscars, when Billy and Whoopi hosted
She wears Harry Winston earrings worth $41,000,000.
It's 2021 and I missed the Oscars with an host.
Whoopi and Billy are equals when it comes to hosting, love to see them join up and co-host
Yes!!!!
She's just incomparable and irresplaceable
Beautiful Natasha Richardson 1m17s, RIP
Mr Jones She‘s very much alive...
@@tatopoulus My fault thanks. I meant Natasha Richardson. She sits next to husband Liam. I will edit the earlier comment.
Oh nooooo its her sister, Joely Richardson
Whoopi for 2019!! 🥰🎥
Is it just me or the statue looks like it has a pair of wings. Hahahahaha
Spot on , it's done on purpose as a subliminal message , it refers to Lucifer , hollywood is run by the masons and the illuminati , check out the black and white squares of the floor too !
It does look like it
Who from 2024?
Omg Liam Neeson!
Bring Whoopi back!!!! She's funnier than anyone else they've tried over the past 20 years. Hell, get Whoopi AND Billy. Let's have the old folks show the millennials how to host a damn awards show.
Steve Martin too
I'm a millennial and I agree with this clarifacation!
yes, i'm an old millennial and i'm hoping you're talking aboout the awful young ones although we're old now too so it's really gen z.
She is the best host period .
young tom hanks wooooo
that set though.
The Oscar wins this year were terrible, but Whoppi here was outstanding!!
Oi gatinho
Did Whoopi just said shit?
Isn't anyone else gonna mention LES MISERABLES (1998), with Liam Neeson, got snubbed by the Academy Awards....? :-O
Back when Whoopi was actually funny
Do you have the six minutes that directly precede this from the broadcast, which is the best moments of film history in the 20th century?
0:18 Bello Tom 😍
She's awesome!!!!! If this was 2017 & after it would be on the cover of time magazine.
Anyone got the clip of Whoopi roasting Robert Redford at the Oscars about his African movies....like Out of Africa and The Way we was?
This is when the world was still free. If she said half of that stuff today they would cut to commercial. Kevin Hart got booted for things he said somewhere other than the Oscar's.
Whoa Whoopi let the girls out
Merci beaucoup
Sou fan numero um dessa mulher ja sonhei vela de perto
